sitions fig. 9:
❒STOP: engine off, key can be extract-
ed, steering locked. Some electrical de-
vices (e.g. sound system, central door
locking system, etc.) can function.
❒MAR: driving position. All electricaldevices can function.
❒AVV: engine starting (temporary posi- tion).
The ignition device is fitted with an elec-
tronic safety system that, in the event the
engine fails to start, turns back the ignition
key to STOP before repeating the start-
ing operation. STEERING LOCK
Engagement

STOP, re-
move it and turn the steering wheel until
it locks.
Disengagement
Rock the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the key to MAR.
If the ignition device has
been tampered with (e.g. an
attempted theft), have it checked
over by a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
WARNING
Always remove the key when
you leave your car to pre-
vent someone from accidentally op-
erating the controls. Remember to

cally as soon as it is turned. This also
applies to when the car is towed.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out any after-market
operation involving steering system or
steering column modifications (e.g. in-
stallation of anti-theft device) that
could badly affect performance and
safety, invalidate the warranty and
also result in the car not complying
with regulations.

TRIP COMPUTER
Introduction
The “Trip computer” is used to display in-
formation on car operation when the key
is turned to MAR. This function allows
you to define two separate trips called
“Trip A” and “Trip B” for monitoring the
car’s “complete journey” in a reciprocal-
ly independent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset – start
of a new journey).
“Trip A” shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Outside temperature;
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time). “Trip B”, available on multifunction display
only, shall be used to display the figures
relating to:
– Distance travelled B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
NB
“Trip B” functions may be excluded
(see “Trip B on”). “Range” and “Instant
consumption” parameters cannot be reset.
Values displayed
Outside temperature
Indicates the temperature outside the
vehicle passenger compartment.
Range
This indicates the distance which may be
travelled with the fuel in the tank assum-
ing that driving style does not change. The
display will show the reading “- - - -“ when
the following events take place:
– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
a long time.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance covered
from the start of the new journey. Average consumption
This value shows the average consump-
tion from the start of the new journey.
Instant fuel consumption
Indicates the fuel consumption. The val-
ue is constantly updated. The message
“- - - -” will appear on the display if the car
is parked with the engine running.
Average speed
This value shows the car’s average speed
based on the overall time elapsed since the
start of the new journey.
Journey time
This value shows the time elapsed since
the start of the new journey.
IMPORTANT If information is not avail-
able, the message “- - - -” will appear in-
stead of the Trip Computer values.
Counting of the different values will be re-
sumed regularly when normal operation
is restored. This will not cause any reset-
ting of the values displayed before the fail-
ure nor the starting of a new journey.

The fabric upholstery of your
car is designed to withstand
normal wear and tear for
a long time. Some precautions
are needed though. Avoid prolonged
and/or excessive rubbing against cloth-
ing accessories such as metal buckles
and Velcro strips which, by applying
a high pressure on the fabric in a small
area, could cause some threads to
break, thereby damaging the upholstery.
