FUEL CUT-OFF
SWITCH
This is a safety switch controlled by
the Airbag control unit. Such switch
cuts in on collision and cuts off the fu-
el supply. This results in the engine
stalling.
The multifunction display informs the
driver that the fuel has been cut off
with a dedicated message.
If you do not notice fuel leaks
and the vehicle is in a fit state to
continue on its way, proceed as
follows:
– turn the key to S;
– extract the ignition key; rein-
troduce it and start the engine as
usual.
HANDBRAKE
fig. 107
The handbrake lever is situated next
to the driver’s seat.
Pull the handbrake lever A upwards
as far as it will go to apply the hand-
brake.
When the ignition key is at M the
panel indicator light x will come on.
If, after a collision, you
can smell fuel or notice
leaks from the fuel-feed
system, to avoid the risk of fire,
do not re-enable the switch.
It should not be possible
to move the vehicle after
the lever has gone
through three or four “clicks”. If
this is not the case, have it ad-
justed at a Fiat Dealership.
To release the handbrake:
– slightly lift the handbrake lever A
and press release button B;
– keep the button pressed in and
lower the lever. The instrument pan-
el indicator light
x will go out.
