WARNING
130)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. Replace
the battery with one of the same type
(HEAVY DUTY) and with the same
specifications.
131)Before opening the bonnet, make
sure that the vehicle is switched off and the
key is in the STOP position. Please follow
the instructions on the decal near the front
crossmember. It is advisable to extract
the key when there are other people in the
car. The car should always be left after
the key has been removed or turned to the
STOP position. When refuelling, make
sure that the car is switched off with the
key in the STOP position.132)We recommend that you remove the
key from the ignition if other people remain
in the vehicle. Exit from the vehicle 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.
133)For cars with Dualogic transmission, if
the engine is automatically stopped on a
slope, the engine should be restarted
by moving the gear lever to + or – without
releasing the brake pedal. For cars with
Dualogic transmission, where the Hill
Holder function is present, in the case of
car stopped on a slope, the engine does
not cut off automatically, so as to make the
Hill Holder function - which is active only
when the engine is running - available.
WARNING
46)If the climate comfort is to be favoured,
the Start&Stop system can be deactivated,
for a continuous operation of the climate
control system.

ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
134) 135) 136)
To turn the device on, turn the ring C
fig. 81 to the
position.
Device activation is indicated by the
symbol lighting up.
The device cannot be engaged in 1
stor
reverse gear: it is advisable to engage
it in 3
rdgear or higher.
IMPORTANT It is dangerous to leave
the device on when it is not in use.
There is a risk of inadvertently activating
it and losing control of the car due to
unexpected excessive speed.SETTING THE DESIRED
SPEED
Proceed as follows:
activate the device by turning the
ring C fig. 81 downwards.
when the vehicle has reached the
desired speed, turn the ring B upwards
(or downwards) and release it to
activate the device. When the
accelerator is released, the vehicle will
automatically maintain the selected
speed.
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 vehicle speed may slightly
exceed the set one.
IMPORTANT Before turning the ring B
upwards or downwards, the vehicle
must travel at a constant speed on level
ground.
SPEED INCREASE
Once the electronic Cruise Control has
been activated, the speed can be
increased by turning the ring B
upwards.DECREASING SPEED
To decrease the speed with the device
activated, turn the ring B downwards.
RECALLING THE SPEED
For versions with Dualogic transmission
operating in D mode (Drive -
automatic), press and release button A
(CANC/RES) fig. 81 to recall the
previously set speed.
For versions with manual gearbox or
Dualogic transmission in sequential
mode, before recalling the previously
set speed you should accelerate until
getting close to it, then press and
release button A (CANC/RES).
DEACTIVATING THE
DEVICE
Lightly pressing the brake pedal or
pressing button A (CANC/RES)
deactivates the electronic Cruise
Control without deleting the stored
speed.
Changing gear deactivates the Cruise
Control.
DEACTIVATING THE
DEVICE
The electronic Cruise Control is
disabled by turning the ring C fig. 81 to
the 0 position or putting the starter
switch at STOP

REGULAR CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long
journeys, check and, if necessary, top
up:
engine coolant level;
brake fluid level;
windscreen washer fluid level;
tyre inflation pressure and condition;
operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
operation of windscreen washer/
wiper system and positioning/wear of
rear window wiper blades.
Every 3,000 km check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
You are advised to use PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS products, which have
been designed and produced
specifically for Fiat cars (see table
“Capacities” in the “Technical
specifications” section).DEMANDING USE OF THE
CAR
If the vehicle is mainly used in one of
the following particularly harsh
conditions:
towing a trailer or caravan;
dusty roads;
short, repeated journeys (less than
7-8 Km) at sub-zero outdoor
temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;
perform the following inspections more
frequently than shown on the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment locks,
cleanliness and lubrication of linkage;
visually inspect conditions of:
engine, gearbox, transmission, pipes
and hoses (exhaust/fuel system/brakes)
and rubber elements (gaiters/sleeves/
bushes, etc.);
check battery charge and battery
fluid level (electrolyte);
visually inspect conditions of the
accessory drive belts;
check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter;
check and, if necessary, replace
pollen filter;
check and, if necessary, replace air
cleaner.

SERVICING AND CARE

IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic
(i.e. it absorbs moisture). For this
reason, if the car is mainly used in areas
with a high degree of atmospheric
humidity, the fluid must be replaced at
more frequent intervals than specified in
the "Scheduled Servicing Plan".

DUALOGIC GEARBOX
HYDRAULIC ACTIVATION
SYSTEM OIL
4)
The fluid level should only be checked
at a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
174)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and inflammable
vapours may be present, with the risk of
fire.
175)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine
is hot: you may get burned. Remember
that the fan may start up if the engine
is hot: this could injure you. Scarves, ties
and other loose clothing might be pulled by
moving parts.176)The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the plug with
another original or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do not
remove the reservoir plug when the engine
is hot: you risk scalding yourself.
177)Do not travel with the windscreen
washer fluid reservoir empty: the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility. Some commercial
windscreen washer additives are
flammable. The engine compartment
contains hot components which may set it
on fire.
178)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.
179)The
symbol on the reservoir
identifies synthetic brake fluids,
distinguishing them from the mineral type.
Use of mineral type fluids will damage
the special rubber seals of the braking
system beyond repair.
WARNING
59)When topping up, take care not to mix
up the various types of fluids: they are
not compatible with each other and could
seriously damage the car.
60)The use of products with specifications
other than those indicated above could
cause damage to the engine not covered
by the warranty.61)Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already existing in
the engine.
62)PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use the same fluid
as in the cooling system when topping
up. PARAFLU
UPcannot be mixed with any
other type of fluid. If this occurs, do not
start the engine and contact your Fiat
Dealership immediately.
63)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
WARNING
3)Used engine oil and oil filters contain
substances which are harmful to the
environment. To change the oil and filters,
we advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
4)Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to have the oil
changed by a Fiat Dealership where it
will be disposed of respecting the
environment and according to legal
requirements.
