HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located to the left of the
driver's seat fig. 162. Pull the lever upwards to
engage the handbrake and ensure that the vehicle
does not move.
Four or five notches are normally sufficient to brake
the vehicle on flat ground, while nine or ten may
be necessary on a steep slope with the vehicle
loaded.
IMPORTANT If this is not the case, contact a Fiat
Dealership to have the handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake is on and the ignition key is at
MAR-ON, the instrument panel warning light
will
come on.
Proceed as follows to release the handbrake:
❒
slightly lift the handbrake and press release button
A;
❒
keep button A pressed and lower the lever.
The warning light in the instrument panel will go
out.
Press the brake pedal when carrying out this
operation to prevent the vehicle from moving
accidentally.
IMPORTANT Apply the handbrake lever only when
the vehicle is at a standstill or with the vehicle in
motion only in the event of a failure in the hydraulic
system. If exceptional use is made of the handbrake
with the vehicle in motion, moderate traction is
advisable in order not to cause locking of the rear
end with consequent swerving of the vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with self-
levelling air suspension, always check that
there is sufficient space above the roof
and around the vehicle when parking. Indeed, the
vehicle could raise (or lower) automatically
depending on load or temperature changes.
