Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not
engaged correctly (gear selector between
two positions).
► Place the selector "correctly" at a position.
Switching o󰀨 the vehicle
Before switching o󰀨 the engine, select position
P then apply the parking brake to immobilise
the vehicle, unless this is set to automatic mode
(with electric parking brake).
Check that mode P has been engaged and that
the electric parking brake has been applied
automatically; if not, apply it manually.
The corresponding indicator lamps in the
selector and the electric parking brake control
lever must be on, as well as those on the
instrument panel.
A point of resistance may be noticed
when moving to position P.
If the selector is not in position P, when the
driver's door is opened or approximately 45
seconds after the ignition is switched o󰀨,
an audible signal sounds and a message
appears.
► Return the drive selector to position P;
the audible signal stops and the message
disappears.
When positioned on a steep slope with a
loaded vehicle, depress the brake
pedal, select position P, apply the parking
brake, unless it is set to automatic mode (with
electric parking brake), then release the brake
pedal.
In all circumstances, ensure that the
selector is in position P before leaving
your vehicle.
Malfunction
When the ignition is on, a message appears on
the instrument panel to indicate a fault with the
gearbox.
In this case, the gearbox goes into back-up
mode and is locked in 3
rd
gear. You may feel a
signicant jolt (without risk to the gearbox) when
changing from P to R and from N to R.
Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a Fiat Dealership or a
qualied workshop.
There is a risk of damaging the gearbox:
– If the accelerator and brake pedals are
depressed simultaneously.
– In the event of a battery failure, forcing the
selector from position P to another position.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
do not try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Drive selector (Electric)
The drive selector is a pulse selector with a
regenerative braking function.
The drive selector provides traction control
based on the driving style, the road prole and
the vehicle load.
With regenerative braking activated, it also
manages engine braking when the accelerator
pedal is released.
P. Park
Button for parking the vehicle: the front
wheels are locked (the button lights up to
indicate that it is activated).
R. Reverse
To engage reverse gear, with your foot on the
brake pedal.
