– Warning light flashing = automatic
gearbox fault.
Warning light flashing at starting or
when travelling indicates a fault in the
automatic gearbox.
The automatic control system sets
an “emergency programme” engaging
the 3 rd gear.
Switching the engine off and then on
again, the self-test system could exclude
the fault and therefore turn off
the warning light. The failure is however
stored and the automatic gearbox
shall be checked at a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
When travelling with the
gearbox faulty, drive with
the utmost care in consideration of
the limited performance (in terms
of acceleration and speed) that the
vehicle can offer.
116 GETTING THE BEST OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE
WARNING
When travelling with the
gearbox faulty, the reversing
gear lock might not be active:
absolutely never move the lever to
the R position with the vehicle on
the move.
BUMP STARTING
Starting by pushing or towing the vehicle
is not possible. In the event of an
emergency, when the battery is flat,
start the vehicle with a suitable emergency
battery, following the instructions
given in section “In an emergency”
at paragraph “Jump starting”.
TOWING THE VEHICLE
IMPORTANT For towing the vehicle
comply with current local regulations
and follow the instructions given
in section “In an emergency” at
paragraph “Towing the vehicle”.
If the vehicle is to be towed, adhere
to the following recommendations:
– if possible, carry the vehicle on the
floor of a rescue vehicle;
– if this is not possible, tow the vehicle
raising the driving wheels (front)
from the ground;
– if this, too, is not possible, the vehicle
should not be towed for more
than 200 km at a speed of no more
than 50 km/h.
When towing, the gearshift lever
should be at N.
Do not start the engine
while the vehicle is being
towed.
The failure to comply
with these instructions
may cause serious damage
to the automatic gearbox.
