WARNING
119) Never leave children unattended in
the car. Always remove the key from the

Fiat Dealership to have it adjusted.
121) In the case of parking manoeuvres on

MANUAL
TRANSMISSION
122) 44)
To engage the gears, fully depress the
clutch pedal and put the gear lever
into the required position (the diagram
is shown on the knob fig. 82).
For 0.9 TwinAir, 0.9 TwinAir Turbo and
1.2 8V 69 HP versions, to engage
reverse gear R from neutral, lift the ring
A fig. 82 located under the knob and
at the same time shift the lever to
the right and back.
For 1.3 16V MultiJet version: to engage
reverse gear R from neutral position,
move the lever to the right and then
back.
IMPORTANT Reverse can only be
engaged when the car is completely
stationary. With the engine running, wait
for at least 2 seconds with the clutch
pedal fully pressed before engaging
reverse to prevent damage to the gears
and grating.
IMPORTANT The clutch pedal should
be used only for gear changes. Do
not drive with your foot resting on the
clutch pedal, however lightly. For
versions/markets where provided, the
electronic clutch control could cut
in, interpreting the incorrect driving style
as a fault.
WARNING
122) Press the clutch pedal fully to change
gears correctly. It is therefore essential
that there is nothing under the pedals:
make sure the mats are lying flat and do
not get in the way of the pedals.
WARNING
44) Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted, even
if slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
