FIAT 500L - Manual (Page 117)

SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped by the Start&Stop
system, if the driver releases his/her seat belt and
opens the driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only using the ignition key.
This condition is signalled to the driver with an
acoustic signal.
"ENERGY SAVING" FUNCTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, following automatic engine restarting, the driver
does not carry out any action on the car for over
3 minutes, the Start&Stop system stops the engine
once and for all, to prevent fuel consumption.
In these cases, the engine can only be restarted using
the ignition key.
Note In any case, it is possible to keep the engine
running by deactivating the Start&Stop system.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the event of malfunction, the Start&Stop system is
deactivated.
Versions with multifunction display: a
Start&Stop system failure is indicated by the
switching on of the
warning light on the
instrument panel and a message on the display.
Versions with reconfigurable multifunction
display: The
symbol and a dedicated message
appear on the display when a failure in the
Start&Stop system is detected.
In the event of a Start&Stop system failure, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
CAR INACTIVITY
In the event of car inactivity (or if the battery is
replaced), special attention must be paid to the
disconnection of the battery electrical system.
Press button A fig. 111 to detach connector B from
sensor C, which monitors battery status and is
located on the negative terminal of the battery itself.
WARNING
If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership.
Replace the battery with one of the same type
(HEAVY DUTY) and with the same
specifications.
