Symbol What it means
amberSCHEDULED SERVICING (SERVICE)
The "Service Schedule" includes car maintenance at fixed intervals (refer to the
"Maintenance and care" chapter). When the next scheduled service deadline is
approaching, the symbol will be displayed, followed by the number of kilometres/miles or
days (where provided) left, when the ignition device is turned to MAR.
This is displayed automatically, with ignition device at MAR, 2000 km before servicing or,
where provided, 30 days before servicing. It is also displayed each time the ignition device
is turned to MAR or, for some versions, every 200 km. Below this threshold servicing
indications are more frequent. The display will be in km or miles according to the unit of
measurement set.
Go to a Fiat Dealership, where the "Service Schedule" operations will be performed and
the message will be reset.

STARTING AND DRIVING

103)Before opening the bonnet, make
sure the engine is off and the ignition key is
in the STOP position. Always refer to the
plate inside the bonnet. We recommend
that you remove the key from the ignition if
other people remain in the vehicle. Exit
from the car only after having removed the
ignition key or having rotated it to the
STOP position. During refuelling, make sure
that the engine is off and that the ignition
key is in the STOP position.
WARNING
46)If the car is equipped with manual
climate control, if you want to favour
climate comfort, the Start&Stop system
can be deactivated for continuous climate
control system operation.
CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed

(for versions/markets, where provided)
104) 105) 106)
DESCRIPTION
This is an electronically controlled
driving assistance device that allows
the desired car speed to be maintained,
without having to press the accelerator
pedal. This device can be used at a
speed above 30 km/h on long stretches
of dry, straight roads with few
variations (e.g. motorways).
It is therefore not recommended to use
this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic. Do not use the device in town.
DEVICE ACTIVATION
Press button Afig. 93
. Activation of
the device is indicated by illumination of
the
symbol (coloured white) on the
display switching on (on some versions
a specific message is also displayed).
Once the Speed Limiter is activated,
button A has to be pressed twice
to activate the Cruise Control.IMPORTANT The device cannot be
engaged in 1
stor reverse gear: it is
advisable to engage it in 4rdgear or
higher.
IMPORTANT It is dangerous to leave
the device on when it is not used. There
is a risk of inadvertently activating it
and losing control of the vehicle due to
unexpected excessive speed.
SETTING THE DESIRED
SPEED
Proceed as follows:
activate the device by pressing
button A fig. 93.
when the car has reached the
desired speed, press button SET + (or
SET –) and release it to activate the
device. When the accelerator is
released, the car will keep the selected
speed automatically.

If needed (e.g. when overtaking), you
can increase speed simply by pressing
the accelerator; when you release the
pedal, the car goes back to the speed
stored previously.
When travelling downhill with the device
active, the car speed may slightly
exceed the set one.
IMPORTANT Before pressing the SET +
(or SET –) buttons, the car must be
travelling at a constant speed on a flat
surface.
INCREASING /
DECREASING SPEED
Increasing the speed: once the
electronic Cruise Control has been
activated, the speed can be increased
by pressing button SET +.
Decreasing the speed: with the
device activated, the speed can be
decreased by pressing button SET –.
DEVICE DEACTIVATION
Lightly pressing the brake pedal,
depressing the clutch to shift gear or
pressing the CANC button deactivates
the Cruise Control without deleting
the stored speed.The device can also be deactivated if
the handbrake is engaged, if the
braking system is activated (e.g.
triggering of the ESC system) or in the
event of automatic braking activated by
the City Brake Control - “Collision
Mitigation” system.
If the device is deactivated, the
instrument panel display shows the
symbol (coloured white) with CANC
next to it.
DISENGAGEMENT OF
THE DEVICE
To disengage the device, press button
A fig. 93 or turn the ignition key to
STOP.
WARNING
104)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
105)In case of a malfunction or failure of
the device, contact a Fiat Dealership.
106)The Cruise Control can be dangerous
if the system cannot keep a constant
speed. In specific conditions speed may be
excessive, resulting in the risk of losing
control of the vehicle and causing
accidents. Do not use the device in heavy
traffic or on winding, icy, snowy or slippery
roads.
SPEED LIMITER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This a driving assistance device that
limits the speed of the car as set by the
driver. The maximum speed can be
set both with vehicle stationary and in
motion. The speed is programmable
between 30 and 130 km/h.
When the device is active, the car
speed depends on the pressure at the
accelerator pedal, until the
programmed speed limit is reached
(see "Speed limit programming"
paragraph).
DEVICE ACTIVATION
Press button A fig. 94 on the steering
wheel.
