Normal Starting of the
Engine
WARNING!
It is dangerous to run the engine in an
enclosed area. The engine consumes
oxygen and discharges carbon
dioxide, carbon monoxide and other
toxic gases in the atmosphere.
WARNING!
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining
a passenger vehicle or off-road vehicle
can expose you to chemicals including
such as, engine exhaust, carbon
monoxide, phthalates and lead, that
which are know to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid breathing
exhaust, do not idle the engine except
as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear gloves
or wash your hands frequently when
servicing your vehicle. For more

When you open a door to get into the
car
, the instrument cluster turns on.
The TFT displays the complete
odometer, time, outside temperature
and the
open doors indicator.
Before starting the engine, close the
doors, adjust your seat, the inside and
outside mirrors, fasten your seat belt
and instruct all other occupants to
buckle their seat belts.
Make sure that the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) is applied.
The shift lever must be in P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position before you can start
the engine. Apply the brakes before
shifting into any driving gear (see
“Automatic Transmission” in this
section).
CAUTION!
• Before starting the engine, switch off the electrical devices with a high
power consumption (air-conditioning
and heating system, heated rear
window, headlights, etc.).
• Do not start the engine if the fuel level in the tank is low. Press the brake pedal and turn the key
in
the ignition switch to MAR (ON)
position.
Instrument cluster displays the initial
sequence with warning light and
analog instruments test routine.
Turn the key into AVVposition and
release it when the engine starts. The
key will return to MAR (ON)position
automatically.
Do not hold the key in AVVposition
for a long time.
If the engine fails to start, the starter
will disengage automatically after 10
seconds. If you wish to stop the
cranking of the engine prior to
starting it, turn the key to STOP (OFF)
position.
If the engine does not start, turn the
key to STOP (OFF) position and wait
for the gear display to go off. Then
repeat the entire procedure.

• –/+ to downshift or upshift in sequential manual mode (see "Drive
Mode" in this section).
Transmission status (example shown in
picture: D (Drive)) is visible also on the
central part of the instrument cluster
display. Starting the Engine
The engine can only be started when
the transmission shift lever is in P
(Park) or N (Neutral) position.
WARNING!
Always start the engine holding the
brake pedal depressed.
NOTE:
After
starting the engine and setting
off, do not depress the accelerator
pedal before and while shifting the
transmission shift lever. This is
particularly important when the
engine is cold.
Driving the Vehicle
After starting the vehicle, with the
engine idling and the brake pedal
depressed (“Shift-Lock” safety), move the transmission shift lever to D
(Drive) position or in the position for
sequential manual shifting “+” or “–”.
Release the brake pedal and gradually
depress the accelerator pedal.
NOTE:
The transmission shift lever can be
moved to P (Park) position only when
the key in the ignition switch is in the
MAR (ON)
position and both the
unlock button on the transmission
lever and the brake pedal are pushed
(Shift-lock safety).
For safety reasons, the transmission
shift lever can be moved from D
(Drive) position to R (Reverse) and P
(Park) position only when unlock
button on the transmission shift lever
is pushed. It is also advisable to
depress the brake pedal during this
maneuver.
NOTE:
• Do not run the engine at top RPM
until it has reached stable operating
temperature.
• In the case of performance starting,
check that the Electric Parking Brake
(EPB) is disengaged.
• For more comfortable starting (with
the transmission lever in D (Drive), R

pedal pressed. To move the shift lever
from P (Park) position to any other
position, the engine must be switched
on. The engine can be regularly
started in P (Park) range. Never
attempt to use P (Park) while the
vehicle is in motion.
When parking on a level surface, you
may place the shift lever in the P
(Park) position first, and then apply
the electronic parking brake by
pulling the trigger upward.
The Instrument cluster will display the
related
light indicator that flashes
until the maximum engagement force
has been reached.
When parking on a hill, apply the
parking brake before placing the shift
lever in P (Park).
For enhanced security, turn the front
wheels toward the kerb on a downhill and away from the kerb on an uphill
grade.
WARNING!
• Never use the P (Park) position as a
substitute for the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB). Always apply the
parking brake fully when parked to
prevent vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
• Make sure the transmission is in P
(Park) before leaving the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• DO NOT race the engine when shifting from P (Park) or N (Neutral)
into another gear range, as this can
damage the drivetrain.
• Shift the lever to P (Park) position only when the vehicle is stationary.
Therefore, it is advisable to perform
this maneuver with the brake pedal
depressed.
• To prevent accidental engagement, the transmission shift lever can only
be shifted from P (Park) to any other
position when the unlock button on
the transmission shift lever and the
brake pedal are depressed. • Before getting out of the vehicle,
check that the Electric Parking Brake
(EPB) is engaged. Shift the
transmission shift lever to P (Park)
position even when you need to get
out of the vehicle only for a few
seconds, leaving the engine running.
If you turn off the engine with the
transmission
shift lever in a position
different from P (Park), an acoustic
signal will sound for a few seconds
and a message will be displayed
indicating to shift the lever to P (Park)
position.
When the driver’s door is opened with
the transmission shift lever in a
position different from P (Park), an
acoustic signal will sound for a few
seconds and a message warning the
driver that the transmission shift lever
is not in P (Park) position will be
displayed.
R (Reverse)
This range is used to move the vehicle
backward.
We recommend to shift into R
(Reverse) only after the vehicle has
come to a complete stop.
• Vehicle halted: switching between P (Park), R (Reverse) and D (Drive)
requires pressing the unlock button
