IGNITION

DEVICE

The key can be turned to 3 different po-

sitions fig. 8:

❒

STOP: engine off, key extractable,

steering locked. Some electrical devices

(e.g. sound system, central door lock-

ing system, etc.) may work.

❒

MAR: driving position. All electrical de-

vices may work.

❒

AVV: engine starting (unstable posi-

tion).

The ignition switch is fitted with an elec-

tronic safety system that, in the event the

engine is not started, turns back the igni-

tion key to STOP before repeating the

starting operation.

STEERING COLUMN LOCK

Engaging

When the key is at STOP, remove the

key and turn the steering wheel until it

locks.

Disengaging

Rock the steering wheel slightly as you

turn the ignition key to MAR.

If the ignition device is tam-

pered with (e.g.: attempted

theft), have it checked over by a Fiat

Dealership as soon as possible.

WARNING

Always remove the key when

you leave your car to pre-

vent someone from accidentally op-

erating the controls. Remember to

apply the handbrake. Engage first

gear if the car is parked uphill or re-

verse if the car is parked downhill.

Never leave children unattended in

the car.

WARNING

fig. 8

F0R0009m

Never extract the key while

the vehicle is moving. The

steering wheel would be locked as

soon as the steering wheel is turned.

This also applies to when the car is

towed.

WARNING

It is absolutely forbidden to

carry out whatever after-

market operation involving steering

system or steering column modifica-

tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft

device) that could badly affect per-

formance and safety, cause the lapse

of warranty and also result in non-

compliance of the car with homolo-

gation requirements.
