KNOWING YOUR CAR
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The booklet that you are reading simply
and directly explains how it is made and
how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see immediately what is
described here for yourself.INSTRUMENT PANEL...........8

STEERING WHEEL
17) 18)
ADJUSTMENTS
The steering wheel can be adjusted
both in height and axially.
To adjust the position bring the lever 1
fig. 25 down to position B after which
the steering wheel can be adjusted to
the most suitable position and
subsequently locked in this position by
bringing lever 1 to position A again.
WARNING
17)All adjustments must be carried out
only with the car stationary and engine
stopped.18)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 adversely affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in the car not
meeting type-approval requirements.
REAR VIEW
MIRRORS
INTERIOR MIRROR
Manual adjustment
Operate lever 1 fig. 26 to adjust the
mirror into two different positions:
normal or anti-glare.
Electrochromic mirror
(where provided)
The electrochromic mirror can
automatically modify its reflecting action
to prevent dazzling the driver fig. 27.
The electrochromic mirror has an
ON/OFF button to activate/deactivate
the electrochromic anti-glare function.

When reverse gear is engaged, the
mirror is automatically set for daytime
use.
DOOR MIRRORS
19)
Electric adjustment
The mirrors can only be adjusted with
the ignition device at MAR and for
about 3 minutes after the ignition device
switches to STOP (or with the key
removed).
When one of the front doors is opened
this operation is disabled.
To adjust, proceed as follows:
use switch 1 fig. 28 to select the
mirror (left or right) to be adjusted;
adjust the mirror by moving the
switch 2 fig. 28 in the four directions.Manual folding
When required (for example when the
shape causes difficulty in narrow
spaces), it is possible to fold the mirrors
by moving them from position A to
position B fig. 29.Heated
Pressing the
button (heated rear
window) on the central dashboard
panel activates the demisting/defrosting
of the external rear view mirrors.
WARNING
19)As the driver's door mirror is curved, it
may slightly alter the perception of
distance.2704106J0002EM2804106J0003EM

RAIN SENSOR(where provided)
7) 8)
This is a device located behind the
interior rear view mirrorfig. 37, in
contact with the windscreen and can
measure the amount of rain and,
consequently, manage the automatic
wiping mode of the windscreen in
accordance with the amount of water
on the screen (see the “Automatic
Wiping” paragraph).
REAR WINDOW WIPER /
WASHER
The rear window wiper can be activated
in the following ways:
intermittent with a 2-second pause
between two strokes, when ring nut 2 is
in position
and the windscreen wiper
is not in operation;
synchronous (at half the windscreen
wiper frequency), when ring nut 2 is in
position
and the windscreen wiper is
in operation or when ring nut 2 is in
position
, reverse gear is engaged
and the windscreen wiper is in
operation;
continuous when ring 2 is in the
position.
Push the stalk towards the dashboard
(rocking position) to activate the rear
window washer jet. Keep pushing the
lever to automatically activate both the
rear window washer jet and the rear
window wiper with a single movement.Releasing the stalk will activate three
strokes, as described for the
windscreen wiper. If the position is
(rear window wiper stopped), after a
6 second pause, the washing cycle is
completed by a single stroke. The
smart wash cycle will not be performed
if the position is
.
WARNING
22)If the window needs to be cleaned,
make sure the device is deactivated or the
key is on STOP.
IMPORTANT
5)Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor cut-out
switch, which prevents operation for a few
seconds, may intervene. If operation is not
subsequently restored, even after restarting
the engine, contact a Fiat Dealership.
6)Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
7)Do not activate the rain sensor when
washing the car in an automatic car wash.
8)Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen.

KNOWING YOUR CAR
Ring nut 2, shown in fig. 38 can be set
to the following positions:
rear window wiper stopped
intermittent operation
continuous operation, without
pausing between two strokes.
STARTING THE
ENGINE
Before starting the engine, adjust the
seat, the interior rear view mirrors, the
door mirrors and fasten the seat belt
correctly.
Never press the accelerator pedal for
starting the engine.
If necessary, messages indicating the
starting procedure can be shown on
the display.
ENGINE STARTING
PROCEDURE
107) 108) 109) 110)
38) 39) 40) 41)
Versions with manual transmission
Proceed as follows:
engage the parking brake and place
the gear lever in neutral;
fully depress the clutch pedal
without touching the accelerator;
only for diesel versions, bring the
ignition device to MAR, warning light
will come on in the instrument
panel and wait for the warning light to
switch off;
turn the ignition device to AVV and
release it as soon as the engine starts;
if the engine does not start within
10 seconds, bring the ignition deviceback to STOP and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure;
after the manoeuvre has been
repeated, if the problem persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
Versions with automatic
transmission
(where provided)
Proceed as follows:
engage the parking brake and set
the gear lever to P (Park) or N (Neutral);
set the ignition device to AVV;
if the engine does not start, bring the
ignition device back to STOP and wait
for 10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure;
after the manoeuvre has been
repeated, if the problem persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
107)Do not try to start the engine pouring
fuel or other flammable fluid inside the
throttle body air intake: this might damage
the engine and injury people nearby.
108)It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes in
oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
109)The brake servo is not active until the
engine is started, so you would need to
apply much more force than usual to the
brake pedal.110)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT
38)We recommend that during the initial
period, or during the first 1600 km, you do
not drive to full car performance (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long journeys at top
speed, sharp braking, etc.).
39)When the engine is switched off never
leave the ignition device in the MAR
position to prevent useless current
absorption from draining the battery.
40)A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose; it wastes fuel and is
especially damaging to turbocharged
engines.
41)Warning light
will 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.
