or
by moving the lever upwards (+).
Each operation of the lever will correspond to a
slight increase in speed of about 1 km/h, while
keeping the lever upwards will correspond to a
continuous speed increase.
Reducing the memorised speed
This can be done in two ways:
by switching off the device and then storing the
new speed;
or
by moving the lever downwards (-) until the new
speed, which will be automatically stored, is
reached.
Each movement of the stalk will correspond to a
reduction in speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held downwards will continuously reduce
the speed.
Switching the device off
The device can be switched off by the driver in the
following ways:
by turning the ring A to the OFF position;
by stopping the engine.
Deactivating the function
The device can be switched off by the driver in the
following ways:
by pressing the brake pedal when the device is
adjusting the speed:
by pressing the clutch pedal when the device is
adjusting the speed;
by pressing button B fig. 40 when the device is
adjusting the speed (for versions/markets, where
provided);
by pressing the accelerator pedal (in this case the
system is not actually turned off but the
acceleration request takes priority; the cruise
control remains activated, without the need to the
press button B fig. 40 to restore the previous
conditions once the acceleration is over).
The device is automatically switched off in the
following cases:
if the ABS or VDC systems intervene;
with the vehicle speed below the set limit;
in the case of system failure.
WARNING
When travelling with the device on,
never set the gearshift lever to neutral.
WARNING
In the event of device faults or failures,
turn knob A to OFF and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

WINDOWS
FRONT ELECTRIC WINDOWS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
There are buttons fig. 62 on the driver side door
panel trim which control the following functions,
with the ignition key turned to MAR-ON:
A: Opening/closing left window
B: Opening/closing right window
Push button A or B to open the appropriate window.
Lift button A or B to close the appropriate window.
When one of the two buttons is pressed briefly,
the window moves in stages; if the button is held
down, "continuous automatic" operation is activated
both for closing and opening. Press button A or B
again to stop the window in its current position.
The electric windows are fitted with a security
system (for versions/markets, where provided) that
can detect the presence of an obstacle whilst the
window is closing; when this happens, the system
kicks in and the movement of the glass is
immediately reversed.
IMPORTANT The system will automatically enter
“recovery” mode (self-protection) if the anti-crushing
function is activated 5 times in only one minute.
This condition is apparent because the window
closing in stages.
If this occurs, restore the system as follows:
open the windows;or
turn the key off (STOP position) and then on
(MAR).
If no malfunction is present, the window returns to
its normal operation automatically.
IMPORTANT With the key off or removed, the
windows remain activated for about two minutes and
are deactivated as soon a door is opened.

iTPMS System (indirect Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System iTPMS
can monitor the tyre inflation status through the
wheel speed sensors. The system warns the driver if
one or more tyres are flat by switching on the
warning light on the instrument panel and
a warning message on the display, along with an
acoustic signal.
If one tyre only is flat, the system can indicate its
position: it is in any case recommended to check the
pressure on all four tyres. This indication is displayed
also when turning the engine off and on until the
“Reset” procedure is carried out.
“Reset” procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-learning" phase (with
length depending on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being driving on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20 minutes)
which starts when the “Reset” procedure is carried
out.
The “Reset” procedure must be carried out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
when the space-saver wheel is fitted. Before
carrying out the “Reset” procedure, inflate the
tyres to the rated pressure values specified in the
inflation pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph in
the "Technical specifications" chapter).
If the “Reset” procedure is not carried out, in all
above cases, the
warning light may give false
indications on one or more tyres.
To carry out the “Reset” procedure, with the vehicle
stopped and the ignition device at MAR, use the
Setup Menu as follows:
briefly press thebutton: the display will show
"Reset";
press thebutton or thebutton to select
("Yes" or "No");
briefly press thebutton: the display will show
"Confirm";
pressbutton orto select ("Yes" to
“Reset” or "No" to exit the video page);
press thebutton again to return to the standard
screen or to the main menu according to where
you are in the menu.
After the “Reset” the display will show the "Reset
saved" message, indicating that the "self-learning" has
been started.

IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the event of malfunctions the Start&Stop system is
disabled. The driver is informed of the problem by
the switching on of the general failure fig. 97 warning
light A, where provided, an information message
and the system failure fig. 97 icon B on the control
panel.
In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership.
VEHICLE INACTIVITY
In cases of car inactivity, special attention must be
paid due to the disconnection of the battery power
supply. Proceed as follows: disconnect connector
A fig. 98(by pressing button B) from the sensor C for
monitoring the status of the battery installed on
the negative pole D of the battery itself. This sensor
should never be disconnected from the pole except
if the battery is replaced.IMPORTANT After turning the ignition key to STOP,
wait at least 1 minute before disconnecting the
electrical supply to the battery.
WARNING
If the batter y needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership.
Replace the battery with a new one of the
same type and specifications.
EMERGENCY STARTING
In the event of emergency starting fig. 99 with a
booster battery, never connect the negative lead (-)
of the booster battery to the negative pole C of
the vehicle's battery, but rather to an engine/gearbox
earth point (follow the lead connection procedure
described in the "Jump starting" paragraph in the
chapter "In an emergency").

PARKING THE CAR
Proceed as follows:
stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
engage a gear (1stgear if parked uphill or reverse if
facing downhill) and leave the wheels turned.
If the vehicle is parked on a steep slope, it is
advisable to block the wheels with a wedge or stone.
To prevent draining the battery, do not leave the
ignition key turned to MAR. Always remove the key
when you leave the vehicle.
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
The warning light (where allowed by the instrument
panel) is associated to a specific message and/or
acoustic tone. These indications are brief and
precautionary and as such must not be considered as
exhaustive and/or alternative to the information
contained in the Owner's Handbook, which you are
recommended to read carefully in all cases. Always
refer to the information in this chapter in the event
of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT The fault indicators appearing on the
display are divided into two categories: very serious
and less serious failures.
Serious failures prompt a prolonged cycle of signals.
Less serious failures prompt a shorter cycle of
signals.
The display cycle of both categories can be
interrupted by pressing the SET
button. The
warning light (or the symbol on the display) on the
instrument panel will stay on until the cause of
the failure is eliminated.
LOW BRAKE FLUID
(red)/HANDBRAKE ENGAGED (red)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid
The warning light turns on when the level of the
brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum
level, possibly due to a leak in the circuit.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
WARNING
If the warning lightturns on when
travelling (on cer tain versions together
with the message on the display) stop the
vehicle immediately and contact Fiat
Dealership.
Handbrake engaged
The warning light turns on when the handbrake is
engaged.
On some versions, an acoustic tone accompanies the
warning light when the vehicle is moving.
