Mirrors realignment operation
In case one of the door mirrors has
been moved manually it may occur that
the mirror itself does not retain its
position in a stable way while driving.
In that case it is necessary to carry out
the following realignment operation:
manually close the mirror in parking
position, folding it from position 1 to
position 2 (see fig. 28 );
Actuate the mirrors opening control
one or two times C fig. 27 to realign the
system and bring both mirrors in the
driving position.
WARNING
17) As the driver's door mirror is curved, it
may slightly alter the perception of
distance.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
LIGHT SWITCH
Light switch ring A fig. 29, located on
the left side of the dashboard, controls
operation of side lights, daytime running
lights, dipped beam headlights, fog
lights and adjusts the instrument panel
and control button graphic dimmer.
With the ignition device in the MAR
position, the instrument panel and the
various dashboard controls will come
on with the external lights.
AUTO FUNCTION(Dusk sensor)
(where provided)
This is an infrared LED sensor that
works in conjunction with the rain
sensor and is located on the
windscreen. It is able to detect
variations in outside lighting based on
the light sensitivity set in the display
Menu or the Uconnect™ system.
The higher the sensitivity, the lower the
amount of external light needed to
automatically switch the external lights
on.
Function activation
Turn the light switch ring nut to AUTO.
IMPORTANT The function can only be
activated with the ignition device at
MAR.
Function deactivation
To deactivate the function, turn the light
switch ring nut to a position other than
AUTO.
DIPPED BEAM
HEADLIGHTS
With the ignition device in MAR
position, turn the light switch ring to
: the position lights, the dipped
beam headlights and the instrument

Deactivation
If the function is activated by using the
left steering wheel stalk, the function
can be deactivated by holding the left
lever in "main beam flashing" mode for
longer than 2 seconds or by waiting for
the deactivation time shown on the
display.
The function cannot be deactivated if it
is activated using the light line. The
headlights will be switched off at the
end of the set time.
Turning the ignition device to the MAR
position will deactivate the function.
MAIN BEAM HEADLIGHTS
To activate the fixed main beam
headlights, with the ignition device in
MAR, push left lever A fig. 30 towards
the dashboard. The light switch should
be turned toAUTOwith the dipped
beam headlights on, or it should be
turned to position
.
With main beam headlights on, the
warning light on the instrument
panel will come on at the same time.
Flashing the headlights
Pull the lever A fig. 30 towards you;
when released it returns automatically
to the stable, central position.
With main beam headlights on, the
warning light on the instrument
panel will come on at the same time. Automatic main beam headlights
(where provided)
In order not to disturb other road users,
the main beam headlights are
automatically turned off when
approaching oncoming vehicles or
when following a vehicle travelling in the
same direction.
This function can be set using the
display Menu (see the instructions in the
"Display" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter); to activate
it, turn the light switch ring to AUTO.
To activate the function, push the lever
towards the instrument panel (it will
hold this position): the
light
illuminates on the instrument panel. If
the main beam headlights are on, the
light also illuminates. If the car is
stopped with the setting just described,
when it is restarted the automatic main beam headlight function will have to be
set again: return the lever to the central
position and push it towards the
instrument panel as before.
When the speed is over 40 km/h and
the function is active, returning the lever
to the stable central position
deactivates the function and switches
the main beam headlights off.
When the speed is lower than 15 km/h
and the function is active, the system
automatically switches main beam
headlights off.
If the lever is pulled back to the central
stable position and then pushed
towards the instrument panel again and
left there, this is interpreted as a request
for permanent main beam headlights:
the light illuminates on the instrument
panel and the main beam headlights
remain on until the car's speed rises
back above 40 km/h. Above this speed,
the function is automatically reactivated
and the
light illuminates again on
the instrument panel.
To disable the function, turn the light
switch ring to the
position.

153)Never tamper with the inflation valve.
Never introduce tools of any kind between
the rim and the tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
154) The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. Any other use,
e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or
different things, is strictly prohibited. Never
use it to carry out maintenance or repairs
under the vehicle or to change
summer/winter wheels and vice versa: we
advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
Never go under the raised vehicle: use it
only in the positions indicated. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. Never start the engine
with car raised. If the car is raised more
than necessary, everything can become
more unstable, with the risk of the car
dropping violently. Thus, lift the car only as
needed in order to access the space-saver
spare wheel.
155) When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw" and
joints) can also cause injuries: do not touch
them. If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.FIX&GO AUTOMATIC
