IMPORTANT
1)If the engine is stopped while driving, the
brake servomechanism will cease to
function and braking efficiency will
deteriorate. Also, the power steering
system will not function and it will require
greater manual effort to operate the
steering.
2)Do not leave the key in the “ON” position
for a long time when the engine is not
running, doing so will cause the battery to
be discharged.
3)Do not turn the key to the “START”
position while the engine is running. Doing
so could damage the starter motor.
4)The indicator lamp (A) fig. 26 will flash
orange when there is a problem or
malfunction in the keyless operation
system. Never drive if the indicator lamp on
the engine switch is flashing orange.
Immediately contact your Fiat Dealership.
5)If the engine switch operation is not
smooth and feels like it is sticking, do not
operate the switch. Immediately contact
your Fiat Dealership.
6)When the engine is not running, put the
operation mode in OFF. Leaving the
operation mode in ON or ACC for a long
time when the engine is not running may
cause the battery to be discharged, making
it impossible to start the engine, lock and
unlock the steering wheel.7)When the battery is disconnected, the
current operation mode is memorized. After
reconnecting the battery, the memorized
mode is selected automatically. Before
disconnecting the battery for repair or
replacement, make sure to put the
operation mode in OFF. Be careful if you
are not sure which operation mode the
vehicle is in when the battery is run down.
8)The operation mode cannot be changed
from OFF to ACC or ON if the keyless
operation key is not detected to be in the
vehicle. Refer to “Keyless operation system:
Operating range for starting the engine and
changing the operation mode”.

WARNING
47)All adjustments must only be carried
out with the vehicle stationary and the
engine off. Head restraints must be
adjusted so that the head, rather than the
neck, rests on them. Only in this case can
they protect your head correctly. To take
best advantage of the protection provided
by the head restraint, adjust the seat back
so that you are sitting up straight and your
head is as close to the head restraint as
possible.
48)Driving without the head restraints in
place can cause you and your passengers
serious injury or death in an accident. To
reduce the risk of injury in an accident,
always make sure the head restraints are
installed and properly positioned when the
seat is occupied.
49)Never place a cushion or similar device
on the seatback. This can adversely affect
head restraint performance by increasing
the distance between your head and the
restraint.
50)When a person sits in the middle
seating position of the rear seat, pull up the
head restraint to a height at which it locks
in position fig. 52. Be sure to make this
adjustment before starting to drive. Serious
injuries could otherwise be suffered in the
result of an impact (Double cab).
51)Make sure that the height adjusting
knob (A) is correctly adjusted as shown in
the illustration fig. 56, and also lift the head
restraints to ensure that they do not come
out of the seatback.52)The shape and size of the head
restraint differs according to the seat.
Always use the correct head restraint
provided for the seat and do not install the
head restraint in the wrong direction fig. 57.

WARNING
119)In the following situations, brake
performance may be compromised or the
vehicle may become unstable if brakes are
applied suddenly; consequently, avoid
driving at high speeds or applying the
brakes suddenly. Furthermore, immediately
the vehicle should be brought to a stop in a
safe location and we recommend you to
have it checked. 1 – The brake warning
lamp does not illuminate when the parking
brake is applied or does not turn off when
the parking brake is released.2–The
brake warning lamp and the ABS warning
lamp illuminate at the same time. For
details, refer to “ABS warning lamp”. 3 –
The brake warning lamp remains
illuminated while driving.
120)The vehicle should be brought to a
halt in the following manner when brake
performance has deteriorated. 1 – Depress
the brake pedal harder than usual. Even if
the brake pedal moves down to the very
end of its possible stroke, keep it pressed
down hard. 2 – Should the brakes fail, use
engine braking to reduce your speed and
carefully pull the parking brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to operate the
stop lamp to alert the vehicles behind you.
IMPORTANT
51)This warning lightwill flash after
starting or during prolonged cranking to
indicate a fault with the glow plug heating
system. If the engine starts, the vehicle can
be used as normal, but a Fiat Dealership
must be contacted as soon as possible.
52)If the diesel preheat indicator lamp
comes on after the engine is started, the
engine speed may not rise above the idling
speed because of fuel freezing. In this case,
keep the engine idling for about
10 minutes, then turn off the ignition switch
or put in OFF the operation mode, and
immediately turn it on or put in ON again to
confirm that the diesel preheat indicator
lamp is off.
53)When this indicator lamp blinks,
electronic stability control function or active
traction control function is operating, which
means that the road is slippery or that your
vehicle’s wheels are beginning to slip. If this
happens, drive slower with less accelerator
input.54)If an abnormal condition occurs in the
system while driving, the
indicator lamp
will illuminate. In these cases, follow these
procedures:1–Ifthetemperature in the
braking system continues to increase due
to continuous brake control on a slippery
road surface, the
indicator lamp will
blink, and operation of the active traction
control function will be suspended to
protect the brake system. (The engine
control of the active traction control
function and normal brake operation will
not be affected). Park your vehicle in a safe
place. When the temperature in the braking
system has come down, the
indicator
lamp will go off and the electronic stability
control function and active traction control
function will start operating again.2–Ifthe
indicator lamp does not go out even
through the above procedure is followed,
there could be a problem in the system.
Stop the engine and start the engine again
and check whether the
indicator lamp
goes out. If the indicator lamp goes out,
there is no abnormal condition.3–Ifthe
indicator lamp illuminates even after
your vehicle is driven a short distance after
re-starting the engine, we recommend you
to have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
55)Prolonged driving with this lamp on
may cause further damage to the emission
control system. It could also affect fuel
economy and drivability.
56)If the lamp does not illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position or the operation mode is put in
ON, we recommend you to have the
system checked.
