STARTING AND DRIVING
Let’s get to the core of the vehicle:
seeing how you can exploit all of its
potential to the full.
We’ll look at how to drive it safely in any
situation, so that it can be a welcome
companion, with our comfort and
our wallets in mind.STARTING THE ENGINE ................. 98

CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed
regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronic driving aid that
allows you to drive at a speed of above
30 km/h on long and straight dry roads
with few driving changes (e.g.
motorways) at a preset speed without
having to press the accelerator pedal. It
is therefore not recommended to use
this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic. Do not use the device in town.
Turning the device on
When the device is activated, light
comes on together with the relevant
message on the instrument panel (for
versions/markets, where provided).
The speed adjustment function cannot
be activated in 1
stor reverse gear; it
is advisable to activate the function in
4
thor higher gears.
When travelling downhill with the device
activated, the vehicle speed may
exceed the memorised one.
Storing vehicle speed
Proceed as follows:
turn ring nut A fig. 111 to the ON
position and press the accelerator
pedal so that the vehicle reaches the
desired speed;
move the stalk upwards (+) for at
least one second, then release it. The
vehicle speed is now stored and you
can therefore release the accelerator
pedal.
If necessary (e.g. when overtaking)
acceleration is possible by simply
pressing the accelerator pedal:
releasing the accelerator pedal the car
will return to the speed stored
previously.
Restoring the stored speed
If the device has been deactivated, for
example by depressing the brake or
clutch pedal, the stored speed can be
restored as follows:
accelerate progressively until a
speed close to that stored is reached;
engage the gear selected at the time
that the speed was stored;
press button B fig. 111.Increasing the stored speed
This can be done in two ways:
by pressing the accelerator and
storing the new speed reached
or
by moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each activation of the lever
corresponds to an increase in speed of
about 1 km/h, whilst keeping the lever
upwards varies the speed continuously.
Reducing the memorised speed
This can be done in two ways:
by deactivating the device and then
storing the new speed
or
by moving the stalk downwards (-)
until the new speed, which will be
stored automatically, is reached.
Each movement of the stalk will
correspond to a slight reduction in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held downwards will decrease
the speed continuously.
Turning the device off
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
by turning ring nut A to the OFF
position;
by switching off the engine;

STARTING AND DRIVING
Deactivating the function
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
by pressing the brake pedal when
the device is adjusting the speed:
by pressing the clutch pedal when
the device is adjusting the speed;
by pressing button B fig. 111 when
the device is adjusting the speed (for
versions/markets, where provided);
by pressing the accelerator pedal (in
this case the system is not actually
turned off but the acceleration request
takes priority; the cruise control remains
activated, without the need to the
press button B fig. 111 to restore the
previous conditions once the
acceleration is over).
The device is automatically switched off
in the following cases:
if the ABS or ESC systems
intervene;
with the vehicle speed below the set
limit
in the event of system failure.
103) 104)
WARNING
103)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
104)In the event of device faults or failures,
turn knob A to OFF and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
SPEED BLOCK
(for 1.3 MultiJet versions with manual
transmission)
The vehicle is equipped with a speed
limitation function that can be set on
the user's request to one of four default
values. 90, 100, 110, 130 km/h.
To activate/deactivate this function,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
Following the operation, a sticker fig.
112 will be applied to the windscreen
showing the top speed setting.
IMPORTANT The speedometer could
indicate a higher maximum speed than
the effective one, set by the Dealership,
in accordance with the regulations in
force.
