STEERING LOCK
Activation
When the key is at STOP, remove the
key and turn the steering wheel until
it locks.
Deactivation
Move the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the ignition key to MAR.
WARNING
4)If the ignition device has been tampered
with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it
checked over by a Fiat Dealership before
driving again.
5)Always remove the key when you leave
your vehicle to prevent someone from
accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the handbrake.
Engage first gear if the vehicle is parked
uphill or reverse gear if the vehicle is
parked downhill. Never leave children
unattended in the vehicle.
6)Never extract the key while the vehicle is
moving. The steering wheel will
automatically lock as soon as it is turned.
This also applies to cases in which the
vehicle is towed.7)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g.: installation of anti-theft device) that
could badly affect performance and safety,
cause the lapse of warranty and also
result in non-compliance of the vehicle with
type approval requirements.
THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
IN BRIEF
This is an electrical engine locking
system which increases protection
against attempted theft of the vehicle.
It is automatically activated when
the key is removed from the ignition
device.
Each key contains an electronic
device which modulates the signal
emitted during ignition by an antenna
built into the ignition device. The
signal, which changes each time the
engine is started, is the “password”,
by means of which the control unit
recognises the key and enables
starting.

make sure that the objects you place in the
luggage compartment have been properly
secured, to avoid them from being thrown
forward consequent to sudden braking and
injuring your passengers.
39)You must not use the folded rear seat
to carry luggage. The load could be thrown
forward into the backrest of the front
seats, seriously injuring the occupants.
40)Make sure that the objects are
positioned carefully and secured to the

Cylinder certification
The methane cylinders are certified in
accordance with ECE Regulation no.
110.
The cylinders must be inspected, in
accordance with ECE Regulation
Procedure no. 110, every 4 years from
the vehicle registration date or in
accordance with specific regulations in
individual countries.PETROL/METHANE
SWITCH
This engine normally runs on methane
except during starting when it runs
on petrol. Switching to methane takes
place automatically and is shown on
the instrument panel display by
switching off the
signal in the display.
Methane fuel reserve
The level of methane in the cylinders is
indicated by the four vertical bars
near the word CNG on the instrument
panel display fig. 91. When the residual
amount of methane is lower than 1/5
of the capacity of the cylinders, the first
level and the edges of the bars of the
other 3 levels flash until the next
methane refuelling. A specific message
will appear on the display in addition
to an acoustic warning.
If the methane has run out, switching to
petrol takes place automatically:
for Euro 5 versions: on the
instrument panel display, first level plus
edges of the bars of the other three
levels keep blinking and the indicator
lights up near the CNG icon.
for Euro 6 versions: on the display,
all the empty segments stop flashing
and then the
indicator near the CNG
icon turns on.
If you specifically wish to run on petrol,
press the dedicated button fig. 87
located on the central tunnel. The LED
on the button switching on indicates
that the request for switching has taken
place correctly.
The actual change to the chosen fuel
system takes place depending on
the vehicle usage conditions to
guarantee switching in absolute safety
and will be confirmed by the
warning
light in the instrument panel display
coming on/going off.
In addition, in the case of starting at
outside temperatures of below around
-10°C, the switching times from Petrol
to Methane increase to allow the
pressure regulator/reduction unit to
become warm enough.
IMPORTANT If switching takes place
during acceleration or pick-up, there
may be a brief flat spot (drop in power).

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

BRAKE ASSIST
(emergency braking
assistance integrated in
ESC)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This system (which cannot be
deactivated) recognises emergency
braking conditions according to the
speed of operation of the brake pedal
and provides an additional hydraulic
braking pressure to support that
provided by the driver. This allows
faster and more powerful operation of
the braking system.
Brake Assist is deactivated on the
versions equipped with ESP, in the
event of ESC system failure (indicated
by the
warning light coming on
together with a message in the
multifunction display, where provided).
WARNING
50)When the ABS cuts in and you feel the
brake pedal pulsating, do not remove
your foot, but keep the pedal pushed
down; in doing so you, will stop in the
shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
51)If the ABS system intervenes, this
indicates that the traction of the tyres on
the road is nearing its limit. You must slow
down to a speed compatible with the
available traction.52)The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve it; you
should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.
53)If only the
instrument panel
warning light comes on (with a message in
the multifunction display on some
versions), stop the vehicle immediately and
contact the nearest Fiat Dealership. Any
loss of fluid will affect the brake system
functionality, both conventional and
ant-lock wheels.
ESC (Electronic
Stability Control)
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IN BRIEF
This is an electronic system that
controls vehicle stability in the event
of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain
directional control.
The ESC system is therefore
particularly useful when grip
conditions of road surfaces change.
The MSR system (adjustment of
the engine braking torque during gear
changes) and the HBA system
(automatic increase in the braking
pressure during emergency braking)
are present with ESC, ASR and
Hill Holder systems (for
versions/markets where provided).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
This is signalled by the flashing of the
warning light in the instrument panel,
to inform the driver that the vehicle is
in critical stability and grip conditions.
78
SAFETY

It both front seat belts are unfastened
while the vehicle is travelling a few
seconds apart, the acoustic indication
will refer to the most recent event
and the two warning lights will proceed
with the visual indication independently.
REAR SEATS (warning
lights3—4—5—6—7)
The reminder cycle is run only when
any seat belt is unfastened (red
blinking). In this condition, the warning
light for the seat belt which has been
unfastened will start flashing red for
approximately 30 seconds. An acoustic
signal is also emitted.The visual
indication (blinking red) will start and
end independently for each warning
light if several seat belts are unfastened.
The warning light will become green
when the relevant seat belt is fastened
again. The rear seat warning lights
will go out, if the front seat belts are
fastened, regardless of the state of the
belt (red or green) approximately 30
seconds after the last signal.
All the warning lights will come on when
at least one belt changes from
fastened to unfastened status or vice
versa.
84
SAFETY
PRE-TENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of
the front seat belts, the vehicle is fitted
with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a violent head-on crash or
side impact, rewind the seat belts a
few centimetres. In this way, they
ensure that the belts fit tightly to the
wearer before the restraining action
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not involve any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication. Any
changes to its original conditions will
invalidate its efficiency. If, due to
unusual natural events (floods, sea
storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact
a Fiat Dealership to have it replaced.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the chest and pelvis.
61)
17)
LOAD LIMITERS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To increase passenger safety, the
front and rear seat belt retractors (for
versions/markets where provided)
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining
action in the event of a frontal collision.
GENERAL WARNINGS
FOR USING THE SEAT
BELTS
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant mothers: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is greatly
reduced for them and the unborn child
if they are wearing a seat belt. Pregnant
women must position the lower part
of the belt very low down so that it
passes over the pelvis and under the
abdomen (see fig. 105).
While pregnancy progresses, the driver
must adjust both seat and steering
wheel to have full control over the
vehicle (pedals and steering wheel must
be easy to access). The maximum
clearance should be kept between the
abdomen and the steering wheel.

USING THE
GEARBOX
To engage the gears, depress the
clutch pedal fully and shift the gear
lever A-fig. 127 into the required
position (the diagram is shown on the
gear knob fig. 123).
IMPORTANT Reverse may only be
engaged when the vehicle is at a
standstill. With the engine running, wait
for at least 2 seconds with the clutch
pedal fully pressed before engaging
reverse to prevent damage to the gears
and grating.
To engage reverse R from neutral, lift
ring B under the knob and at the same
time move the gear lever to the right
and then backwards (as shown in the
diagram).

23)
WARNING
95)Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. Therefore, the floor
area underneath the pedal unit must not
be obstructed in any way. Ensure that the
floor mat is always laid flat and does not
interfere with use of the pedals.
WARNING
23)Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted, even
if slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the internal gearbox components.
The clutch pedal should be used only
for gear changes. Do not drive with your
foot resting on the clutch pedal, however
lightly. For versions/markets where
provided, the electronic clutch control
could cut in by interpreting the incorrect
driving style as a fault.
COMFORT-MATIC/
DUALOGIC
TRANSMISSION
The vehicle is equipped with an
electronically controlled mechanical
transmission ((Comfort-Matic or
Dualogic) which has two operating
modes:MANUALandAUTO.
The transmission consists of a
traditional manual transmission with a
lever fig. 124, to which an electronically
controlled electro-hydraulic device
has been added to automatically
control the clutch and gear the
engagement.

25)If the warning light (together with the
message in the display) continues to
remain on in the panel, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
26)If the message is still shown in the
display, contact a Fiat Dealership.
27)To keep the clutch in good condition,
do not use the accelerator to keep the
car stationary (e.g. when stopped facing
uphill); the clutch could be damaged by
overheating. Use the brake pedal instead
and operate the accelerator only when you
are ready to set off.
START&STOP
SYSTEM
IN BRIEF
The Start&Stop device automatically
stops the engine each time the
vehicle is stationary and starts it
again when the driver wants to move
off.
This improves the efficiency of the
vehicle by reducing fuel consumption,
the emission of harmful gases and
noise pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
WITH MANUAL GEARBOX
With the vehicle stationary, the engine
stops with the gearbox in neutral and
the clutch pedal released.
WITH ROBOTISED GEARBOX
The engine cuts out if the vehicle stops
with the brake pedal pressed.
This condition can be maintained even
if the brake pedal is not depressed, if
the gear lever is in position N.Note: The engine can only be stopped
automatically after a speed of about
10 km/h is reached, to prevent the
engine from being repeatedly stopped
when driving at walking pace.
The engine being stopped is signalled
by a fig. 128 symbol on the display,
depending on the trim level.
With the device activated, for reasons
of comfort, limiting emissions and
safety, the engine does not stop in
certain conditions.
Restarting the engine
WITH MANUAL GEARBOX
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the
engine.
