KNOWING YOUR CAR
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The booklet 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 immediately what is
described here for yourself.INSTRUMENT PANEL...........8

Check that there are no objects on the
cushion surface, turn the backrests
backwards, insert them under the
backrest and press downwards until
they click. Visually check that the
correct position they had before they
were tipped is restored.
IMPORTANT Always free the seat belt
fastening devices before repositioning
the seat cushion to allow it to be
repositioned correctly without damage.
WARNING
11)All adjustments must be made with the
car stationary.
12)Once you have released the
adjustment lever, always check that the
seat is locked on the guides by trying to
move it back and forth. If the seat is not
locked into place, it may unexpectedly slide
and cause the driver to lose control of the
car.
13)Make sure the backrests are properly
secured at both sides (not visible "red
notches) to prevent them from moving
forward, in the event of sharp braking, with
possible impact with of the passengers.
14)People who can't feel skin pain due to
advanced age, chronic diseases, diabetes,
spine damage, medication, alcohol,
exhaustion, or other physical conditions,
must be careful when using the seat
heater. It could cause burns even at a low
temperature, especially when used for long
periods of time.15)Do not place objects on the seat or on
the backrest that may isolate the heat,
such as a cover or a pillow. It may cause
the seat heating device to overheat. Sitting
on an overheated seat may cause severe
burns due to the increase in temperature of
the seat surface.
IMPORTANT
4)The fabric upholstery of the seats has
been designed to withstand long-term wear
deriving from normal use of the car. Some
precautions are however required. Avoid
prolonged and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as metal
buckles and Velcro strips which, by
applying a high pressure on the fabric in a
small area, could cause it to break, thereby
damaging the upholstery.
HEAD RESTRAINTS

When the lights are turned on manually,
they will switch off automatically after
15 minutes to preserve the battery
charge only with the ignition device in
the STOP position.
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the
vehicle, make sure that the roof light
bulbs are off; this will prevent the
battery from being drained once the
doors are closed. In any case, if a light
is left on by mistake, the ceiling light
switches off automatically about
15 minutes after the engine has been
switched off.
Ceiling light timing
On certain versions, to facilitate getting
in/out of the car at night or in poorly-lit
areas, two timed modes have been
provided.
Timing while getting into the car
The roof lights switch on according to
the following modes:
for a few seconds when the doors
are unlocked;
for about 3 minutes when one of the
side doors is opened;
for a few seconds when the doors
are locked.
Timing is interrupted when the ignition
device is turned to MAR.Timing while getting out of the car
The roof lights come on when the key is
removed from the ignition within
2 minutes of switching off the engine,
on opening and closing a door with the
removed key.
The timing stops automatically when
the doors are locked.
With the ignition device in the STOP
position, the ceiling light will
automatically turn off after 15 minutes
to preserve the battery charge.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

When the CITY function is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.
To ensure steering uniformity, when the
key is pressed while the steering wheel
is being turned, the change of force will
only be felt when it is turned in the
opposite direction, or the steering
wheel is released.
WARNING
28)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance, invalidate the warranty, cause
serious safety problems and also result in
the car not meeting type-approval
requirements.
29)Before performing any maintenance
operations, always stop the engine and
remove the key from the ignition to lock the
steering column (especially when the car
wheels are not touching the ground). If this
is not possible (for example if the key
needs to be turned to MAR or the engine
must be running), remove the main fuse
that protects the electric power steering.
LUGGAGE
COMPARTMENT
IMPORTANT When travelling, do not
put any object on the rear parcel shelf
because they can injure passengers in
the event of an accident or sudden
braking.
OPENING
30)
Tailgate opening
When the central locking system is
unlocked, the tailgate can be opened
from outside the car using the electric
opening handle (where provided)
fig. 44 located under the handle until
the unlocking click is heard.The roof light inside the luggage
compartment will turn on when the
tailgate is opened; the roof light will
automatically switch off when the
tailgate is closed (see also "Interior
lights").
If the tailgate is left open, the roof light
will automatically switch off to preserve
the battery charge.
Emergency opening from inside
Proceed as follows:lower the head restraints and fold the
backrests;
identify and remove yellow guard A
fig. 45, which is press-fitted on the lock,

SIDE BAGS
To help increase occupants protection
in the event of side impact collisions,
the vehicle is equipped with front side
bags and window bags.
Side bag
These comprise two bags located in
the front seat backrests fig. 111 which
protect the pelvis, chest and shoulder
area of the occupants in the event of a
side impact of medium/high severity.
They are marked by the "AIRBAG" label
sewn on the outer side of the front
seats.
Window bag
These consist of two “drop-down”
cushions, housed behind the side trim
of the roof and covered with finishing
elements fig. 112.They are designed to protect the head
of front and rear occupants in the event
of a side collision, thanks to the wide
cushion inflation surface.
The deployment of side bags in the
event of side impacts of low severity is
not required.
In the event of a side impact, the
system provides best protection if the
passenger sits on the seat in a correct
position, thus allowing correct window
bag deployment.

Important notes
Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).The front and/or side airbags may
activate in the event of sharp impacts to
the underbody of the vehicle (e.g.
impact with steps, pavements, potholes
or road bumps etc.).
When the airbag deploys it emits a
small amount of dust: the dust is
harmless and does not indicate the
beginning of a fire. The dust may irritate
the skin and eyes however: in this case,
wash with neutral soap and water.
Airbag checking, repair and
replacement must be carried out at a
Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is scrapped, have the
airbag system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership.
Pretensioners and airbags are deployed
in different ways on the basis of the
type of collision. Failure to activate one
or more of the devices does not
indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
91)Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard in
the passenger side airbag area, on side
upholstery on the roof or on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on
the passenger side of the dashboard since
they could interfere with correct inflation of
the passenger airbag and also cause
serious injury to the passengers.

SAFETY

Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in the
case of vehicles towing trailers. In any
case, the top speed must not exceed
100 km/h.
Any electric brake must be powered
directly by the battery through a cable
with a cross-section of no less than
2.5 mm
2.
In addition to the electrical branches,
the vehicle electrical system can only be
connected to the supply cable for an
electric brake and to the cable for an
internal light for the trailer, not
exceeding 15 W. For connections, use
the preset control unit with a battery
cable with section not less than 2.5 mm
2.
IMPORTANT The use of auxiliary loads
other than external lights (e.g. electric
brake) must take place with engine
running.
INSTALLING A TOW
HOOK
To install a tow hook contact a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
134)The ABS with which the car is
equipped will not control the braking
system of the trailer. Particular caution is
required on slippery roads.
135)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the car’s hydraulic system.
SUGGESTIONS FOR
DRIVING
SAVING FUEL
Below are some suggestions which
may help you save fuel and thus lower
the amount of harmful emissions
released into the atmosphere.
Vehicle maintenance
Checks and operations should be
carried out in accordance with the
"Scheduled Servicing Plan" (see the
"Maintenance and care" chapter).
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures at least once
every four weeks: if the pressure is too
low, consumption levels increase as
resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot.
The weight of the vehicle and its
arrangement greatly affect fuel
consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
(where provided)
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof when they are not used.
These accessories lower aerodynamic
penetration and adversely affect
137
consumption levels.
