HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located on the left of the front seat.

five clicks are generally enough when the car is on level ground while
nine or ten may be required if the car is on a steep slope or laden.
IMPORTANT If this is not the case, contact Fiat Dealership to have the
handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled up and the ignition key is at MAR the
instrument panel warning light

will come on.
To release the handbrake:
❒ Slightly lift the handbrake and press release button (A).
❒ Keep button pressed in and lower the lever. Warning light
x
will go
out.
Press the brake pedal when carrying out this operation to prevent the
car from moving accidentally.
