IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different po-
sitions fig. 21:
❒
STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electric devices
(e.g. sound system, central door lock-
ing system, etc.) may work.
❒
MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices work regularly.
❒
AVV: engine starting (unstable posi-
tion).
The ignition switch is fitted with a safety
system that, in the event the engine is not
started, turns back the ignition key to
STOP before repeating the starting op-
eration.

STEERING LOCK
Engagement
When the key is in position STOP, re-
move the key and turn the steering wheel
until it is locked.
Switching off
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
Never extract the key while
the car is moving. The steer-
ing wheel would lock automatically
as soon as the steering wheel is
turned. This also applies to when the
car is towed.
WARNING
Always remove the key when
you leave your car to pre-
vent someone from accidentally op-
erating the controls. Remember to
engage 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.
