KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The handbook that you are reading
simply and directly explains how it is
made and how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see what is described here for
yourself.THE KEYS.................13

BAGGAGE COVER
79)
The luggage cover consists of one or
two rigid parts.
There are two possible positions:
position A high fig. 147;
position B low fig. 149.
Depending on the versions, you can lift
up part 1 fig. 148 to the vertical position
to make luggage loading easier.
WARNING
79)Do not put anything, especially if it is
heavy or blunt, on the boot. In case you
brake suddenly or have an accident, you
risk the safety of the vehicle's occupants.
CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed
regulator)
80) 81)
This is an electronically controlled
driving assistance device that allows the
desired vehicle speed to be maintained,
without having to press the accelerator
pedal.
This device can be used at a speed
above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry,
straight roads with few variations (e.g.
motorways).

appears on the display screen.
Activation is confirmed when the light
goes off
.
Recalling the stored speed limit
If you have stored a speed, you can
recall it, after making sure the driving
conditions allow it (traffic, road
conditions, weather, etc.). Press button
4 fig. 154 if the vehicle speed is over
30 km/h. When recalling a stored
speed, the activation is confirmed when
the warning light goes on
.
NOTE If the preceding stored speed is
much higher than the present speed,
the vehicle will accelerate powerfully up
to this limit.
IMPORTANT When the function is in
stand-by, pressing switch 2 fig. 154 will
reactivate the regulator function without
taking into account the stored speed:
the speed the vehicle is travelling will be
used.Interrupting the function
The function can be disengaged by
pressing button 1 fig. 155. The green
lights turning off
andon the
instrument panel confirm the function
has been deactivated.

WARNING
80)The Cruise Control does not impact the
braking system in any case.
81)It provides a supplementary driving aid.
However, it does not replace the driver. It
cannot take the place of local speed limit
observations, attentiveness (always be
ready to brake) or driver responsibility. The
Cruise Control must not be used when
traffic is heavy, on winding or slippery
roads (ice, aquaplaning, gravel) or when
weather conditions are unfavourable (fog,
rain, wind gusts, etc.). Risk of accident.82)Warning: keep your feet near the
pedals so they are ready to intervene in an
emergency.
83)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
84)Putting the engine in stand-by or
deactivating the Cruise Control does not
rapidly lower the speed: you need to brake
using the brake pedal.
85)In case of a malfunction or failure of the
device, contact a Fiat Dealership.
86)The electronic Cruise Control can be
dangerous if the system cannot keep a
constant speed. In specific conditions
speed may be excessive, resulting in the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and
causing accidents. Do not use the device
in heavy traffic or on winding, icy, snowy or
slippery roads.

SPEED LIMITER
The cruise control is a function that
keeps you from going over a certain
pre-set speed limit.
Controls

increasing cruise control (+).
3fig. 157 Lowering cruise control (-).
4fig. 157 Activation with stored

5fig. 157 Placing function in stand
by (with stored cruise control) (O).
Activation
87)
Press button 1 side. Warning light 6
fig. 158 turns orange and the message
"LIMITER" appears on the instrument
panel along with dashes to indicate that
the cruise control is active and waiting
for the speed limit recording.
To record the current speed, press
switch 2 (+): the speed limit replaces
the dashes.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.Guide
When the speed has been stored, until
this speed has been reached, driving is
the same as driving a vehicle not
equipped with cruise control.
Once this limit has been reached, when
you press the accelerator, you cannot
exceed the programmed speed except
in the event of an emergency (refer to
the "Exceeding the set speed limit”
paragraph).
Variation in the speed limit
You can vary the speed limit by
pressing in succession:
button 2 fig. 159 (+) to increase the
speed;
button 3 fig. 159 (-) to decrease the
speed.
Exceeding the set speed limit
You can exceed the set speed limit at
any time by pressing hard on the
accelerator (beyond the "point of
resistance").156T36543

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
While exceeding the set speed, the set
speed flashes on the instrument panel,
along with an acoustic signal.
Afterwards, release the accelerator: the
cruise control function will reactivate
when you reduce the speed to lower
than the stored one.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot maintain the set speed:
the stored speed will flash on the
instrument panel along with an
intermittent acoustic warning.
Impossible to maintain the set
speed limit
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise
control cannot maintain the speed: the
stored speed will flash on the
instrument panel along with an
intermittent acoustic warning.
Placing the function in stand-byThe speed limiter can be disabled using
the switch 5 (O) fig. 160. In this case,
the speed limit is stored and is viewed
on the display in a dedicated message
together with the stored speed.
Recalling the stored speed limit
If speed data is stored, you can recall it
by pressing button 4 (R) fig. 160.
When the cruise control function is in
stand-by, pressing switch 2 fig. 160 will
reactivate the regulator function without
taking into account the stored speed:
the speed the vehicle is travelling will be
used.
Interrupting the function
The cruise control function can be
deactivated; in this case, the speed is
no longer stored. The orange warning
light
on the instrument panel turns
off to confirm that the speed limiter has
been turned off.
WARNING
87)The Speed Limiter does not impact the
braking system in any case.
PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
Temperature of the exhaust gases
The system controlling the exhaust lets
you identify the malfunctions of the
vehicle's anti-pollution device. These
faults can cause an excess in polluting
emissions and cause mechanical
damage.
This warning light on the instrument
panel indicates any system function
failure:
If it stays on, contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible;
If it flashes, you need to reduce the
engine running until the flashing stops.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
Refer to the information in the "AdBblue
(Urea) additive tank" paragraph in the
"Knowing your vehicle" chapter.
Ambient
The vehicle was designed with
environmental friendliness in mind for its
entire life cycle: from manufacture to
use up to the end of its life cycle.

CONTROL PANEL
AND ON-BOARD
INSTRUMENTS
On-board computer 1 fig. 172
Depending on the vehicle version, it
includes the following functions:
distance travelled;
travel parameters;
information messages;
malfunction messages (together with
warning lights
);
alarm messages (together with the
STOPwarning light).
Selection buttons for displaying
Scroll up (button 9) or down (button 10)
for the following information, pressing a
few times briefly (the display will depend
on the vehicle's equipment and country
of sale) fig. 173.You can view the following information
on the display screen:
overall and partial odometer for the
distance travelled;
fuel consumed;
average fuel consumption;
instantaneous consumption;
expected range with remaining fuel;
distance travelled;
average speed;
service limit, oil change counter;
tyre pressure re-initialisation;
speed set on the Cruise Control /
Speed Limiter;
time and temperature;
on-board log, information message
scrolling and operational malfunction;
percentage volume of remaining
additive.Resetting the trip odometer
When the "trip meter" display is
selected, press either button 9 or 10
fig. 173 until the odometer is reset to
zero.
Resetting travel parameters
When one of the trip parameters is
selected on the display, press button
9 or 10 fig. 173 until the display is reset.
Interpreting some of the displayed
values after resetting
The further you travel after the last
reset, the more accurate and significant
the average fuel consumption,
autonomy and average speed become.
During the first kilometres travelled after
resetting, you will notice that the
autonomy increases as you travel. This
is because the system takes the
average fuel consumption since the last
reset into account. The average fuel
consumption can decrease when:
the vehicle is no longer accelerating;
the engine reaches operating
temperature (reset: cold engine);
going from urban to extra-urban
driving.
Automatic travel parameter reset
Reset is automatic when one of the
parameter's capacities is exceeded.
