WARNING
28) When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the key from the ignition to avoid
the risk of injury to those still inside the
vehicle due to accidental operation of the
sun roof. Improper use of the roof can
be dangerous. Before and during
operation, always check that nobody is at
risk of being injured by the moving sun roof
or by objects getting caught or hit by it.
WARNING
5) Use the sunroof only in spoiler position if
transverse roof racks are fitted. Do not
open the sun roof if there is snow or ice on
it: you may damage it.

STEERING

29) 30) 31)
This only operates with the key turned
to MAR and the engine started.
The steering allows the force required
at the steering wheel to be adjusted
to suit driving conditions. When the
CITY function is on, the steering wheel
effort is lighter, making parking easier:
therefore, this function is particularly
useful for driving in city centres.

IMPORTANT When turning the ignition
key quickly, full power steering
functionality can be achieved after a
few seconds.
CITY FUNCTION
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
Press button CITY fig. 27, function
activation is signalled by the word CITY
on the display (for versions with
multifunction display) and by the word
CITY lighting up on the button after
it has been pressed. Press the button
again to deactivate the function
27
IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder: this is
normal and is due to the intervention
of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating, so no
intervention is required. When the
vehicle is used again later on,
the power steering will work normally.
WARNING
29) It is strictly forbidden to carry out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g. installing an anti-theft device). This
could badly affect performance and safety,
invalidate the warranty and also result in
the non-compliance of the vehicle with
regulations.
