DEACTIVATION

START&STOP

SYSTEM

IMPORTANT

121) Never use position P (Park) instead

of the parking brake. Always engage the

parking brake when parking the car to

avoid the accidental movement of the car.

122) If the P (Park) position is not

engaged, the car could move and injure

people. Before leaving the car, make sure

that the gear lever is in position P and that

the parking brake is engaged.

123) Do not shift the gear lever to N

(Neutral) and do not stop the engine when

driving on a downhill road. This type of

driving is dangerous and reduces the

possibility of intervening in the case of

variation of the road traffic or surface. You

risk losing control of your car and causing

accidents.

(where provided)

To activate/deactivate the system

manually, press the fig. 126 button

located on the dashboard.

125)

The Start&Stop system automatically

stops the heat engine each time the car

is stationary and starts it again when

the driver wants to move off.

In this way, the car efficiency is

increased, by reducing consumption,

emission of harmful gases and noise

pollution.

Start&Stop mode will be active

whenever the engine is started.

OPERATING MODE

Heat engine stopping mode

With the car stopped, the heat engine

stops with transmission in neutral and

clutch pedal released.

If the car does not start when the

clutch is pressed, place the gear lever

in neutral and repeat the procedure. If

the problem persists, contact a Fiat

Dealership.

WARNING

35) Before moving the gear lever from

position P (Park), bring the starter switch

to position MAR and press the brake

pedal. Otherwise, the gear lever may get

damaged.

36) If the car is on a slope, always engage

the parking brake BEFORE moving the

shift lever to the P position.

engine stops, due for example to the

clutch pedal being released abruptly

with a gear engaged, if the system is

activated, the engine can be restarted

by fully depressing the clutch pedal or

by bringing the gearshifting lever in

neutral. If the clutch is not pressed,

after 3 minutes from the heat engine

stopping, the engine can be restarted

only using the ignition device.

SAFETY FUNCTIONS

through the Start&Stop system, if the

driver releases their seat belt or opens

the driver's or passenger's door, the

heat engine can be restarted only by

using the ignition device.

This condition is indicated to the driver

both through a buzzer and a message

on the display.

FUNCTION

If, following the automatic engine

restarting, the driver does not carry out

any action for more than 3 minutes,

the Start&Stop system stops the

heat engine definitely, to prevent fuel

consumption.

Due to comfort, emission control and

safety reasons, the heat engine can

restart automatically without any action

by the driver, based on the conditions

of the car and the passenger

compartment air conditioning system.

DESCRIPTION

IRREGULAR OPERATION

In the event of malfunction, the

Start&Stop system is deactivated.

For failure indications, see the "Warning

lights and messages" paragraph,

"Knowing the instrument panel"

chapter.

This device allows the speed of the car

to be limited to values which can be set

by the driver.

The maximum speed can be set both

with car stationary and in motion. The

minimum speed that can be set is

30 km/h.

SPEED LIMIT

PROGRAMMING

The speed limit can be programmed

without necessarily activating the

device.

When the device is active, the car

speed depends on the pressure

at the accelerator pedal, until the

programmed speed limit is reached

(see "Speed limit programming"

paragraph).

IMPORTANT

To store a speed value higher than

the displayed one, briefly press the

SET + button. Each time the button

is pressed, the speed increases by

about 1 km/h while keeping the button

pressed, the speed increases by

5 km/h intervals.

125) Before opening the bonnet, make

sure that the engine is off and that the

starter switch is in the STOP position.

Follow the indications on the plate

underneath the bonnet. We recommend

that you remove the key from the ignition if

other people remain in the vehicle. The

vehicle should always be left after the key

has been removed or turned to the STOP

position. During refuelling, make sure that

the engine is off (ignition device in the

STOP position).

ACTIVATING THE DEVICE

To activate the device press button (1)

fig. 127 on the steering wheel.

To store a lower speed value than the

displayed one, press the SET – button.

Each time the button is pressed, the

speed decreases by about 1 km/h

while keeping the button pressed, the

speed decreases by 5 km/h intervals.
