    INTRODUCTION/WELCOME WELCOME FROM FIAT Congratulations on selecting your new FIAT 500e. Be assured that your 500e represents an elegant marriage of technology and Italian styling that is as good for the environment as is fun to drive! Your new 500e has characteristics to enhance the driver's control under some driving conditions.
  • Page 5 INTRODUCTION/WELCOME WARNING! • Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of serious personal injury. • Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the ve- hicle is moving. Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and accelera- tor pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
