Automatic main beam headlights
(where provided)
In order not to disturb other road users,
the main beam headlights are
automatically turned off when
approaching oncoming vehicles or
when following a vehicle travelling in the
same direction.
This function can be set using the
display Menu (see the instructions in the
"Display" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter); to activate
it, turn the light switch ring to AUTO.
To activate the function, push the lever
towards the instrument panel (it will
hold this position): the
light
illuminates on the instrument panel. If
the main beam headlights are on, the
light also illuminates. If the car is
stopped with the setting just described,
when it is restarted the automatic main
beam headlight function will have to be
set again: return the lever to the central
position and push it towards the
instrument panel as before.
When the speed is over 40 km/h and
the function is active, returning the lever
to the stable central position
deactivates the function and switches
the main beam headlights off.When the speed is lower than 15 km/h
and the function is active, the system
automatically switches main beam
headlights off.
If the lever is pulled back to the central
stable position and then pushed
towards the instrument panel again and
left there, this is interpreted as a request
for permanent main beam headlights:
the light illuminates on the instrument
panel and the main beam headlights
remain on until the car's speed rises
back above 40 km/h. Above this speed,
the function is automatically reactivated
and the
light illuminates again on
the instrument panel.
To disable the function, turn the light
switch ring to the
position.

automatically when the steering wheel
is straightened or when the daytime
running lights (DRL) are switched on."Lane Change" function
To indicate a change of lane with the
car moving, move the left lever to the
non-stable position for less than half a
second.
The direction indicator on the side
selected will be activated for 5 flashes
and then go out automatically.

With the ignition device in the MAR
position, this function can be used to
activate the side/tail lights and the
number plate lights for 25 seconds
whenever the doors are unlocked using
the remote control or the Keyless Entry
function.
The courtesy light function can be
adjusted through the display Menu or
theUconnect™system.
The function is automatically disabled
once the activation time elapses
(25 seconds), or when the car doors
are locked again, or by turning the
ignition device to a position other than

of the full luggage compartment
capacity.
Sill level (high)fig. 49: combined
with folding the rear seats and front

be loaded and also makes
loading/unloading items in the luggage
compartment easier. It also allows the
space underneath (double bottom) to
be used as a further compartment for
stowing objects which are more fragile
or small.
The load platform can also be tilted,
and is equipped with a washable plastic
surface, useful for instance for
transporting wet or muddy items.
IMPORTANT Movements of the load
platform must take place in a central
position relative to the luggage
compartment.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

vehicle to prevent injury or damage
caused by the unexpected movement
of the vehicle.
IMPORTANT For cars with manual
transmission, if the clutch pedal is
pressed all the way and then released
simultaneously with the press of the
accelerator, the electric parking brake
automatically releases.
OPERATING THE
ELECTRIC PARKING
BRAKE
The electric parking brake can operate
in the following ways:
"Dynamic operating mode": this
mode is activated by pulling the switch
fig. 89 repeatedly whilst driving;
"Static engagement and release
mode": with the car stationary, the
electric parking brake can be activated
by pulling the switch once. On the other
hand, press the switch and the brake
pedal at the same time to disengage
the brake;
“Drive Away Release”: the electric
parking brake will automatically
disengage with the detection of the
driver’s intention to move the car
forward or in reverse. On versions with
automatic transmission, the driver’s
safety belt has to be properly fastened.
"Safe Hold": if the car speed is lower
than 3 km/h and, for the versions withautomatic transmission, the gear lever
is not in P (Park) position and the driver
intention of leaving the car is detected,
the electric parking brake will
automatically engage to hold the car in
safety conditions;
"Auto Apply": if the car speed is
lower than 3 km/h, the electric parking
brake will automatically engage with the
gear lever moved to P (Park) position
(versions with automatic transmission),
or with the ignition device at STOP
(versions with manual transmission).
The LED on the switch will light up
together with the
warning light on
the instrument panel when the parking
brake is engaged and applied to the
wheels. Each automatic parking brake
engagement can be cancelled by
pressing the switch on the central
tunnel and at the same time moving the
gear lever for the automatic
transmission to position P (Park) or the
ignition device to STOP (versions with
manual transmission). This way can be
handled by using the system Menu
Uconnect™.
SAFE HOLD
It is a safety function that automatically
engages the electric parking brake in
the event of a dangerous condition for
the vehicle.If:
the vehicle speed is below 3 km/h;
the gear lever is not at P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission);
the driver's seat belt is not fastened;
the driver side door is open;
no attempted operation of the brake
pedal or the accelerator pedal, or, in
versions with manual gearbox, the
clutch pedal is detected
the electric parking brake engages
automatically to prevent vehicle
movement.
The Safe Hold function can be
temporarily disabled by pressing the
switch located on the central tunnel and
the brake pedal at the same time, with
the vehicle stationary and the driver
side door open.
Once disabled, the function will activate
again when the vehicle speed reaches
20 km/h or the ignition device is moved
to STOP and then to MAR.
WARNING
107)In the case of parking manoeuvres on
roads on a gradient, steer the wheels,
engage the parking brake, the first gear if
uphill and the reverse if downhill; on
versions with automatic transmission, set
the lever to "P". If the car is parked on a
steep slope block the wheels with a wedge
or stone.
