MEMORISING /  
RESTORING THE  
MEMORISED SPEED  
The device can be used at a speed  
above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry,  
straight roads with few variations (e.g.  
motorways). It is therefore not  
recommended to use this device on  
extra-urban roads with traffic. Do not  
use it in town  
Speed memorising: turn ring nut A to  
ON and press the accelerator pedal  
so that the vehicle reaches the desired  
speed. Move the stalk upwards (+)  
for at least one second, then release it:  
the speed is memorised and you can  
therefore release the accelerator pedal.

MEMORISED SPEED  
The sensors are located in the rear  
bumper fig. 73, they detect the  
presence of any obstacles near the rear  
part of the vehicle and inform the  
driver, through an intermittent acoustic  
signal.  
Speed increase: press the accelerator  
and memorise the new speed or move  
the stalk upwards (+), until reaching  
the new speed, which will be  
memorised automatically.  
Speed decrease: deactivate the  
device and memorise the new speed or  
move the stalk downwards (-), until  
reaching the new speed, which will be  
memorised automatically.  
Each movement of the stalk  
corresponds to an increase/decrease in  
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping  
the stalk held upwards will continuously  
increase the speed.

115) While travelling with the device  
engaged, do not put the gear lever into  
neutral.  
Activation/deactivation: the sensors  
are automatically activated when  
reverse gear is engaged. As the  
obstacle behind the vehicle gets closer,  
the acoustic signal becomes more  
frequent.  
116) In the case of malfunctioning or if the  
device fails, turn ring nut to OFF and  
contact a Fiat Dealership.
