START&STOP
SYSTEM
The Start&Stop system automatically
stops and restarts the engine without
operating the ignition switch or engine
switch when the vehicle is stopped,
such as at a traffic light or in a traffic
jam, to reduce exhaust gases, increase
fuel efficiency.
NOTE The accumulated time the
engine has been stopped by
Start&Stop system is displayed in the
multi information display. Refer to
“Start&Stop monitor”.
106)
Automatically stopping the engine
The Start&Stop system is automatically
activated when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position or the
operation mode is put in ON.
You can deactivate the system by
pressing the “Start&Stop OFF” switch.
Refer to “To deactivate”.
When the Start&Stop system will
operate, the indicator lamp will turn on
to inform the driver.1. Stop the vehicle.
2. While depressing the brake pedal,
fully depress the clutch pedal and place
the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral)
position.
3. Release the clutch pedal. The engine
will stop automatically.NOTE When the engine is automatically
stopped, changes will occur in the
driving operations. Pay careful attention
to the following.The brake booster becomes
inoperative and the pedal effort will
increase. If the vehicle is moving, press
down the brake pedal harder than
usual.

deactivate the system by pressing the
“Start&Stop OFF” switch.
When the Start&Stop system is

If the
indicator lamp blinks while
driving
If the
indicator lamp blinks, the
Start&Stop system is malfunctioning
and will not operate.
We recommend you to consult a Fiat
Dealership.
IMPORTANT
106)If the vehicle will be stopped for a long
time or if you will leave the vehicle
unattended, stop the engine.
107)Observe the following precautions
when the engine is stopped automatically.
Otherwise, an unexpected accident might
occur when the engine restarts
automatically: do not depress the
accelerator pedal to race the engine while
the vehicle is stopped (regardless of
whether the engine is running or stopped).
Otherwise, an unexpected accident might
occur when the engine restarts
automatically; when the engine is
automatically stopped, do not attempt to
exit the vehicle. Because the engine
restarts automatically when the driver’s
seat belt is unfastened or the driver’s door
is opened, an unexpected accident might
occur when the vehicle starts moving; do
not move the gearshift lever to a position
other than the “N” (Neutral) position. If the
gearshift lever is moved to a position other
than the “N” (Neutral) position, the indicator
lamp/indicator display blinks and the buzzer
sounds. If the gearshift lever is returned to
the “N” (Neutral) position, the indicator
lamp stops blinking and the buzzer stops
sounding. The engine will not restart if the
gearshift lever is in a position other than the
“N” (Neutral) position.

TRANSMISSION
(Where provided)
The shift pattern is shown on the
gearshift lever knob. To start off,
depress the clutch pedal all the way
down and shift into 1st or “R” (Reverse)
position. Then operate the gearshift
lever slowly. Afterwards gradually
release the clutch pedal while
depressing the accelerator pedal.
233)
109) 110) 111) 112) 113)
NOTE During cold weather, shifting
may be difficult until the transmission
lubricant has warmed up. This is normal
and not harmful to the transmission.
If it is hard to shift into 1st, depress the
clutch pedal again; the shift will then be
easier to make.
In case of hot weather condition or long
time cruising with high speed, a speed
limitation function may work to restrict
the oil temperature rising of the manual
transmission. After the oil temperature
drops to the appropriate level, the
speed limitation function is cancelled.
The gearshift indicator shows
recommended gearshift points for
fuel-efficient driving. It shows a
when
an upshift is recommended.Moving the gearshift lever to the
“R” (Reverse) position
Depress and hold the gearshift lever to
the “R” (Reverse) position.
114)
Possible driving speed
Avoid shifting down at high speed, as
this may cause excessive engine speed
(the tachometer needle into the red
zone) and damage the engine.

Selector lever positions
“P” PARK
This position locks the transmission to
prevent the vehicle from moving. The
engine can be started in this position.
“R” REVERSE
This position is to back up.
116)
“N” NEUTRAL
At this position the transmission is
disengaged. It is the same as the
neutral position on a manual
transmission, and should only be used
when the vehicle is stationary for an
extended length of time during driving,
such as in a traffic jam.
117) 118) 119)
“D” DRIVE
This position is used for most city and
highway driving. The transmission will
automatically change its gear
depending on road and driving
conditions.
120)
Sport mode
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in
motion, sports mode is selected by
gently pushing the selector lever from
the “D” (DRIVE) position into the manual
gate (A). To return to “D” range
operation, gently push the selector lever
back into the main gate (B).In sports mode, gear shifts can be
made rapidly simply by moving the
selector lever backward and forward.
For vehicles equipped with the shift
paddles, shift paddles at the steering
wheel can also be used to perform
gearshift. In contrast to a manual
transmission, the sports mode allows
gear shifts with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
NOTE If your vehicle is equipped with
the shift paddles, you can shift into
sports mode with shift paddles when
the selector lever is in the main gate as
well. Also, you can return to the “D”
range operation in any of following
ways. When returning to “D” range
operation, the selector lever position
display will change to “D” (DRIVE)
position.
Pull the + (SHIFT UP) side shift
paddle forward (toward the driver) for
over 2 seconds.
Stop the vehicle.
Push the selector lever from the “D”
(DRIVE) position into the manual gate
(A) and push the selector lever back
into the main gate (B).
+ Shift up
The transmission shifts up by one gear
with each operation.
— Shift down
The transmission shifts down by one
gear with each operation.
121) 122) 123)
NOTE Only the 5 forward gears can be
selected. To reverse or park the vehicle,
move the selector lever to the “R”
(REVERSE) or “P” (PARK) position as
required.
