solid. The other LEDs switch on
sequentially, depending on the positions
set on the knob, so that the driver can
understand which is the new required
mode.
Once the required mode is set (LED close
to the wording switched on), just keep
the knob in that position so that the
Selec-Terrain™system actuates to
engage the wished mode.STOP/START SYSTEM
The Stop/Start system automatically
stops the engine each time the vehicle is
stationary and starts it again when the
driver wants to move off.
In this way, the vehicle efficiency is
increased, by reducing consumption,
dangerous gas emissions and noise
pollution.

STARTING AND DRIVING

PARALLEL AND
PERPENDICULAR PARKING
DESCRIPTION
Activation
The system is activated pressing the
button on the dashboard (see "On/off"
paragraph): after being selected, the
system activates in search mode.
Considering that the system recognises
parking places even when it has not been
selected, it can be activated even
immediately after passing close to a
parking place suitable for the type of car.
The system will inform the driver,
through the instrument panel display,
about the operations to be performed for
a correct manoeuvre.
Selecting the type of parking
During the search and until the reverse
gear is engaged, the preferred type can
be selected for parking:
"Parallel": the car will search a parking
place parallel to the driving direction;
"Perpendicular": the vehicle will
search a parking place perpendicular to
the driving direction.
Selection of the search side
To select the search side and perform the
correct manoeuvre, act as follows:
Select the search for the parking
place and the manoeuvre on thepassenger side placing the direction
indicator in centre position (deactivated)
or pushed upwards.
Select the search for the parking
area and manoeuvre on the driver side
pushing the direction indicator
downwards.
Search for a parking place
Through the side sensors, the system
continuously searches for a free parking
place, suitable for the car’s dimensions.
While searching the vehicle should
continue following its route at a speed of
below 30 km/h and at a distance of
around 50 cm to 1.5 m from parked
vehicles.
A parking place is considered suitable if
it is about 80 cm longer than the
dimensions of the vehicle for parking
placesparallelto the driving direction
and about 1 m per parking places
perpendicularto the driving direction,
compared to the vehicle's dimensions.
IMPORTANT While searching, vehicle
speed should not exceed 30 km/h;
when 25 km/h have been reached, the
driver is asked to decrease the speed;
if the speed of 30 km/h is exceeded, it
is deactivated (in this case, the system
can be restarted by pressing the button
on the instrument panel).
Manoeuvre
During manoeuvre, the vehicle's
movements can be controlled by
operating the accelerator, brake and
clutch pedals (versions with manual
gearbox), or the accelerator and brake
pedals (versions with automatic
transmission). Once a parking place has
been found, you will be asked to engage
reverse, leave the steering wheel and use
the pedals, while the system handles the
steering automatically to perform the
parking operation in the dedicated area.
During the manoeuvre it will be possible
to take advantage of the information
coming from the parking sensors (when
driving in reverse it is advisable to reach
the area where the rear sensors sound
continuously), but it is always advisable
to keep an eye on the surrounding area.
The car can be stopped during the
manoeuvre and, whilst remaining
stationary, reverse gear can temporarily
be released (for example, to allow a
pedestrian to go by in the area of the
manoeuvre).
The parking manoeuvre will be
interrupted in the following cases:
vehicle's speed is above 7 km/h;the steering is (voluntarily or
unintentionally) moved (by grabbing it or
preventing it from moving);
