ELECTRONIC KEY
ATTENTION
1) Do not swallow the battery. Danger of
chemical burns. The keys contain a small
battery. If the battery is swallowed, it
can cause severe internal burns in just 2
hours and cause death. Keep new and used
batteries out of the reach of children. If
the battery compartment does not close
securely, discontinue use of the product and
keep it out of reach of children. If you believe
that batteries may have been swallowed
or inserted inside the body, seek medical
attention immediately. The emergency
key (where provided) must be immediately
inserted into the electronic key to prevent
easy access to the battery.

where it is compulsory to have lights on
during the day; where it is not compulsory,
the use of daytime running lights is
permitted.
6) Daytime running lights cannot replace
dipped beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The use of daytime
running lights is governed by the highway
code of the country in which you are driving.
Comply with legal requirements.
TPMS Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System
(where provided)
7) 8) 9) 10) 11)
1)
The TPMS signals the driver a possible
insufficient pressure if this falls below the
warning limit for any reason, including the
effects of low temperature and normal
loss of pressure from the tyre.
The TPMS will stop indicating insufficient
tyre pressure when it is equal to or
greater than the prescribed cold inflation
pressure.
If insufficient tyre pressure is indicated
( symbol shown on the instrument
panel), increase the inflation pressure up
to the prescribed cold inflation value.
Once the system receives the updated
inflation pressures, it will automatically
update and the symbol will turn off.
The car might need to be driven at a
speed higher than about 25km/h up to
20 minutes for theTPMS to receive this
information.
To view TPMS information on the Connect
system display, and activate the "Car
information" function, fig.17 using the
corresponding widget in the Main Menu.
17 12126S2305EM
If the inflation pressure corresponds to
the correct value, "OK" will appear on the
display, otherwise "KO" will appear.
Press the graphic button (1) fig.18 on the
display of the Connect system to see the
screen showing the inflation pressures of
each tyre.

15
18 12126S2310EM
ATTENTION
7) The presence of the TPMS does not
permit the driver to neglect regular checks
of the tyre pressure, including for the spare
tyre, and correct maintenance: the system is
not used to signalling a possible tyre fault.
8) Tyre pressure must be checked with tyres
rested and cold. Should it become necessary
for whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even
though it is higher than the prescribed value.
Repeat the check when the tyres are cold.
9) Should one or more wheels be fitted
without sensors, the system will no longer
be available and a warning message will
be shown on the display, until wheels with
sensors are fitted again.
10) The TPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (e.g. if a tyre bursts). In this
case, stop the car, braking with caution and
avoiding abrupt steering.
11) Changes in external temperature may
cause tyre pressures to vary. The system
may temporarily indicate insufficient
pressure. In this case, check the tyre
pressure when cold and, if necessary,
restore the inflation values.
WARNING
1) The Tyre Repair Kit, provided with the car,
is compatible with the TPMS sensors. Using
sealants different from that in the original
kit may compromise its operation. If sealants
not equivalent with the original one are used,
it is recommended to have theTPMS sensor
operation checked by a qualified repair
centre.

the electric parking brake. Always engage
the electric parking brake when parking the
car to avoid the accidental movement of
the car.
13) 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 electric
parking brake is engaged.
14) 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.
15) NEVER leave children unattended
inside the car, let alone leave the car with
the doors unlocked in a place that children
can access easily. Children may seriously, or
even fatally, injure themselves. Also ensure
that children do not inadvertently operate

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
For optimal protection in the event of
an impact, all occupants must be seated
and wearing adequate restraint systems,
including newborn and other children!
This prescription is compulsory in all
EC countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.

CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
16) 17) 18) 19) 20) 21) 22) 23) 24) 25) 26)
Rearward-facing child restraint systems
must NEVER be fitted on the front seat
with an active passenger side airbag
since in the event of a collision the airbag
activation may cause fatal injuries to the
transported child.
ALWAYS comply with the instructions on
the label stuck on the passenger side sun
visor (A) or (B) fig.24.

front ceiling light, fig.25.
The LEDs indicates the passenger airbag
protection status:
Passenger protection activated: the
ON LED switches on fixed
Passenger protection deactivated:

ATTENTION
16) Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be injured,
even fatally.When fitting a restraint system
for newborns or children, strictly comply
with the instructions provided by the
Manufacturer.
17) When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the car. Do not leave it unsecured inside the
passenger compartment. In this way, in the
event of sudden braking or an accident, it
will not cause injuries to the occupants.
18) After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove the
child restraint system before making any
adjustment.

19
19) Always make sure that the belt strap
does not pass under the child’s arms or
behind its back. In the event of an accident
the seat belt will not be able to secure the
child, with the risk of injury, including fatal
injury. Therefore the child must always wear
the seat belt correctly.
20) Do not use the same lower anchoring to
install more than one child restraint system.
21) If a Universal ISOFIX child restraint
system is not fixed to all three anchorages,
it will not be able to protect the child
correctly. In the event of an accident, the
child could be seriously or fatally injured.
22) Fit the child restraint system when the
car is stationary. The child restraint system
is correctly secured to the brackets when
you hear the click. Follow the instructions for
assembly, disassembly and positioning that
the Manufacturer must supply with the child
restraint system.
23) SEVERE DANGERWhen a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of the
airbag in a crash could cause fatal injuries
to the child regardless of the severity of
the collision. It is advisable to always carry
children in a child restraint system on the
rear seat, which is the most protected
position in the event of a collision.
24) On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that
it is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if
a rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always follow the instructions on the
passenger-side sun visor.
25) Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a rear
facing child restraint system, the passenger
side front and side airbags must be
deactivated through the main menu of the
Connect system, verifying deactivation by
checking that the OFF LED on the front
ceiling light is lit. Move the passenger's seat
as far back as possible to avoid contact
between the child seat and the dashboard.
26) Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated child
restraint system.
