DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is equipped with a display
that can show useful information to the
driver while driving.

with automatic transmission only),
outside temperature, compass
indications (where provided), date.
B: vehicle speed, warning
messages/any failure indications.
C: total kilometres (or miles) run and
icons of any failure indications.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
(where provided)
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system
advises the driver when to change gear
through a special indication on the
display
Through the GSI, the driver is informed
that the gear change will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption to be
obtained.
When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) is
shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a higher
gear, while the SHIFT DOWN (
SHIFT) icon advises the driver to
engage a lower gear.
The indication in the display remains
until a gear is shifted or the driving
conditions go back to a situation where
gearshifting is not required to improve
consumption.

(towards each other), and the handle
must be slid downwards.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, handle B
must be slid (without pressing

Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING

72) Remember that, in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
73) Make height adjustment of the seat
belts when the car is stationary.
74) After the height adjustment, always
check that the grip is locked in one of the
preset positions. To do this, with button A
released, exert further pressure
downwards to allow the locking device to
click if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.

can increase speed simply by pressing
the accelerator; when you release the
pedal, the vehicle goes back to the
speed stored previously.
When travelling downhill with the device
active, the vehicle speed may slightly
exceed the set one.

previously set speed you should
accelerate until getting close to it, then
press and release the RES button.
DEACTIVATING THE
DEVICE
Lightly pressing the brake pedal or
pressing the CANC button deactivates
the electronic Cruise Control without
deleting the stored speed.
The Cruise Control may be deactivated
also by applying the electric parking
brake (EPB) or when the braking
system is operated (e.g. operation of
the ESC system).

dangerous if the system cannot keep a
constant speed. In specific conditions
speed may be excessive, resulting in the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and
causing accidents. Do not use the device
in heavy traffic or on winding, icy, snowy or
slippery roads.
