When leaving the car,always remove the key from

the ignition to avoid the risk ofinjury to passengers due to acciden-tal operation of the top. Improperuse of the top can be dangerous.Before and during operation, alwayscheck that no passenger is at risk ofbeing injured directly by the movingtop or by objects getting caught in orhit by the top.

WARNING

Do not place objects on theparcel shelf to prevent dam-age while the top is closing.

Do not position loads on thetop.

❒ When the soft top is opened usingthe relevant control, if the heated rearwindscreen had been engaged it is auto-matically deactivated and the warninglight switches off.

❒ Do not remove ice from the top withsharp items.

❒ Do not use scrapers or sprays toremove ice from the heated rear win-dow to prevent damage.

❒ Do not put objects on the top: they could fall if the top is operatedcausing damage and injury.

❒ It is advisable to cover the top with aprotective sheet if the car is left parkedin the open for a long time.

❒ Do not keep the top open for a longtime: this could cause folds and creases inthe fabric.

IMPORTANT NOTES

❒ The horizontal and vertical part of thetop can be operated at any speed lowerthan 100 and 80 km/h respectively.

❒ The top can be operated at any tem-perature in the range from −18 to +80 .

❒ It is recommended to have the enginerunning always when opening or closingthe soft top.

❒ If required, remove the battery withopen or closed soft top, but NOT whenthe soft top is moving.

❒ Do not fix luggage transport devicesto the top and do not travel with objectsresting on the open top.

❒ Before moving the soft top, checkthat there is enough room to carry outthe operation and that there are noobstacles or people close to the movingparts of the soft top.

❒ The cooled air flow into the passen-ger compartment may decrease if theautomatic climate control system is onand the top is not completely closed.

❒ With the top open and the car inmotion, the voice recognition systemmay not recognise the voice commandsbecause of the background noise. Withtop closed and at a high speed, the voicefunction for number dialling may not berecognised.

EMERGENCY OPERATION

If the control buttons fail, the soft topcan be moved manually proceeding asdescribed below:

❒ take the key A-fig. 6 provided andlocated in the luggage compartment incombination with the tool box or theFix&Go Automatic kit.

fig. 6 F0S0307m

If the tailgate cannot be opened (e.g.because of a flat battery or a failure in thetailgate electric lock), proceed as follows:

❒ remove the head restraints and foldthe backrests;

❒ to release the tailgate mechanically,from inside the luggage compartment,operate the lever A-fig. 7;

❒ introduce the key A-fig. 6 in theposition shown in fig. 8 (located insidethe luggage compartment, underneaththe parcel shelf);

❒ turn the key clockwise to open thesoft top or anti-clockwise to close it.

To restore automatic movement condi-tions, contact an Abarth Dealership.

INITIALISATION PROCEDURE

The soft top must be re-initialised afterdisconnecting the battery or if the rele-vant protection fuse is blown.

Proceed as follows:

❒ before carrying our any operation,make sure the motor is running duringthe whole initialisation procedure;

❒ keep the opening button presseduntil the soft top is completely open;

❒ when the soft top is completely open,keep the button pressed for at least 2seconds;

❒ keep the closing button pressed untilthe soft top is completely closed;

❒ when the soft top is completelyclosed, keep the button pressed for atleast 2 seconds.

When the procedure is terminated, thesoft top will automatically carry out a com-plete opening and closing cycle (up to 25cm from the completely closed position)to inform the driver that correct opera-tion has been restored.

WIND STOP

The Wind Stop fig. 9 is designed toimprove driving comfort, by reducing airturbulence in the passenger compart-ment when travelling with the top down.

To use it:

❒ Release the backrest of the rear seat(single or split).

❒ Attach the Wind Stop by inserting thecentral part inside the rear screen guard,with the concave part in the direction ofthe passenger, as shown in the figure.

❒ Correctly re-position the backrest;the Wind Stop is locked between theseat and parcel shelf.

fig. 9 F0S0334m

With the Wind Stop fitted, it is still pos-sible to move the electric hood.

When not in use, the Wind Stop shouldbe stored in the luggage compartmentwithout loading excessive weight on topof it; do not bend.

FRONT SPOILER

The car is provided with a front spoilerwhich can be raised to improve aerody-namic comfort inside the passengercompartment.

To raise the spoiler, release the catchusing the slider A-fig. 10 moving it toposition b, as shown.

Be careful not to move the slider A-fig. 10 from position b to position awith the spoiler raised.

If a water jet is used, directaway from the edges of thefabric and the rear window

frame to prevent water infiltration.

Never use alcohol, petrol,chemical products, deter-gents, stain removers, wax,

solvents and “wash and polish” prod-ucts.

When using steam washersor high-pressure waterwashers, maintain a suitable

distance and do not exceed a maxi-mum temperature of 60 °C. Damage,deformations and water infiltrationmay occur if the distance is too smallor the pressure is too high.

Bird droppings and plantresins must be washed offimmediately and thoroughly

as the acid they contain is particular-ly aggressive.

Never use high-pressure wash-ing systems.

fig. 11 F0S0309m

To lower the spoiler, press the spoilerand when the catch is positioned in itshousing fig. 11 move the slider to posi-tion a fig. 10 to lock it. It is advisable to raise the spoiler whenthe horizontal segment of the top isopen and at speeds faster than 50 km/h.With the top completely open, it isadvisable to keep the spoiler lowered tolimit wind noise inside the passengercompartment.Raising the spoiler will reduce the flowof air to the rear seats.

WASHING/CLEANING THE SOFT TOP

Use of specific products is recommend-ed for washing the top.

The top fabric is treated with a specialwater-repellent, waterproofing product.The water-repellent properties willdegrade in time with exposure to the ele-ments. Observe the following instruc-tions for washing:

9


The rubber seals of the topmust be washed with wateronly. Apply talcum power or

use specific rubber care products (sil-icone spray) if the seals are dry orpartially stuck.

Rinse immediately to removesoap to prevent stains andblots. Repeat the operation

if needed.

Waterproofing the top

Use specific waterproofing products forfabric tops.

Follow the instructions onthe waterproofing productcontainer for optimum

results.

Remove as much dirt from the surface ofthe soft top with a soft brush or vacuumcleaning before washing it. This opera-tion will considerably improve the finalresult.

In absence of specific products, use waterand mild soap applied with a spongepreferably in the shade for washing.

Rinse the soft top with clean water afterhaving eliminated all the stains.

Hand washing is recommended; modernautomatic washing systems equippedwith soft brushes which do not applyexcessive pressure and employ specificsoft top products may be used.

Interior top fabricRemove dust with a soft brush. Avoidusing hard brushes made of syntheticmaterial to prevent damaging the fabricbeyond repair. Clean the surface with a microfibre clothor soft sponge dipped in a solution ofwater and mild soap. Clean the entiresurface, including the zones where clean-ing is not needed, to prevent stains.Use common, car care mild stain re-movers for more stubborn stains. Applyby blotting (never rubbing) directly on thearea of the stain.

Leave the car in the shade after washingavoiding direct sunlight.

STARTING THE VEHICLE

Notes

❒ At starting, the system sets in AUTOmode.

❒ With the buttons 1, N, R and brakepedal depressed, the 1st speed, neutral(N) and reverse (R) can be engaged.

❒ With the buttons 1, N, R and with-out depressing the brake pedal, nogear change request is implemented bythe system.

❒ With the levers on the steering wheel(see paragraph “Levers on the steer-ing wheel”) and even with the brakepedal depressed, no gear can be en-gaged.

❒ If the vehicle is switched off with modeSPORT or NORMAL active, themode previously set is maintainedwhen the engine is restarted.

With key extracted from the starting de-vice, the buttons on the gearbox dash-board (fig. 12) can be pressed with orwithout the brake pedal depressed. Whenthe buttons are pressed, the system willnot perform any activation, therefore thespeed engaged before switching off the en-gine remains engaged.

With vehicle stationary and key in theMAR position (ignition-operated electri-cal services activated), the screen displaysthe speed engaged and the active operat-ing mode (automatic = AUTO or manu-al = no display).

ABARTH COMPETIZIONETRANSMISSION

The vehicle is equipped with an electron-ically controlled manual transmissionknown as Abarth Competizione trans-mission which allows two operating log-ics: MANUAL and AUTO.

The transmission consists of a conven-tional manual transmission to which anelectronically-controlled electrohydraulicdevice that controls the clutch and gearshifts automatically has been added.

OPERATING MODES

The transmission can work in two oper-ating modes:

❒ the first manual type (MANUAL), inwhich the driver decides directly whento change gear;

❒ the second completely automatic (AUTO), in which the system decideswhen to make the gear change.

Manual operation (MANUAL)

In this operating mode, the driver is re-sponsible for choosing the best gear ra-tio to engage, depending on the car op-erating conditions.

To change to a higher gear, operate thelever “+” on the steering wheel; to changeto a lower gear, operate the lever “−”.

If the request is accepted by the system,when the gear change is completed, thedisplay shows the new gear engaged.

fig. 13 F0S0173m fig. 14 F0S0174m

Automatic operation (AUTO)

To switch automatic operation (AUTO)on/off, press the button A/M on the trans-mission panel; activation is signalled by theword AUTO and the gear engagedshown on the display (fig. 13-14).

In AUTO mode the system changes geardepending on the vehicle speed, the en-gine rpm and the intensity with which theaccelerator pedal is pressed.

NOTE The system shows the gear actu-ally engaged on the display and not thegear requested by the driver.

If the request is not accepted by the sys-tem, the display shows the gear engagedbefore the request and an acoustic signalis emitted.

If the gear change request may adverselyaffect the correct operation of the engineor the transmission, the system will not al-low the gear change but will automatical-ly change down if the engine reaches theidling speed (e.g. during deceleration).

F0S0164m

To move the vehicle, the 1st, 2nd or the re-verse (R) gear must always be engaged(with brake pedal depressed).

A gear change can be requested using thecontrol lever without having to switch offthis mode: this function known as “gearsuggestion” suspends the automatic modefor the time necessary to carry out thegear selection requested by the driver.

SPORT FUNCTION

The driver can also use the SPORT func-tion which enables a sporty driving settingby intervening on gear changes, the enginecontrol unit and the steering. To activatethis function, press the SPORT button(fig. 15) located on the dashboard.

“Kick Down” function

The "Kick Down" function is also available:if necessary (for example when overtak-ing), the system downshifts one or moregears (if the rpm allow it) in order to pro-vide suitable power and torque for the ac-celeration requested by the driver.

In this way the engine speed and powercan be suddenly increased and then auto-matically restored when the conditions setpreviously are resumed.

WARNING The use of the “Kick Down”function is recommended only when over-taking or accelerating fast, in order not toincrease fuel consumption.

Pressing the button SPORT on the dash-board activates the “SPORT” mode (theword SPORT is displayed on the screenlocated inside the turbocharger pressuregauge – see paragraph “Information dis-played”). If the button is pressed a secondtime, the “SPORT” mode is deactivated.

13


STARTING THE ENGINE

To start the engine press the brake pedal:the system engages neutral (N) automati-cally.

After the starting procedure, the 1st speed(1) or reverse (R) can be engaged.

Independently of the mode (AUTO/MANUAL), to engage the 1st speed or thereverse (R), it is necessary to depress thebrake pedal and press the button 1 onthe transmission panel and the button R toengage the 1st speed and the reverse re-spectively.

The levers on the steering wheel work on-ly if the 1st speed has been engaged bypressing the button 1: setting off in 2ndspeed is therefore possible by operatingthe “+“ lever with brake pedal depressed(in this case the selected mode AUTO/MANUAL is kept active).

IMPORTANT The 1st speed cannot be en-gaged by pressing the lever “−” on thesteering wheel.

Important notes

If start-up is requested with the gearboxfaulty, run the “Delayed startup” proce-dure (see paragraph “Warning lights andmessages”): if the ignition key is turned tothe AVV position for at least 7 secondswith brake pedal depressed, the enginewill be started. The system will remain ina recovery situation (highest permittedgear 3rd, Automatic mode not available).If the engine does not start, contact anAbarth Dealership.

When the driver’s door is opened, thesystem activates the hydraulics so thatthey are prepared for the subsequent en-gine starting.

LEVERS ON THE STEERINGWHEEL fig. 16

These enable sequential gear shifting.

The lever “+” on the steering wheel en-gages a higher gear, while the lever “–” en-gages a lower gear.

The engagement of a lower (or higher) gearis only permitted if the engine revs allow it.

fig. 16 F0S0159m

14


Engaging the 1st speed

Proceed as follows:

❒ press the brake pedal;

❒ press button 1 on the transmission panel;

❒ release the brake pedal and press theaccelerator pedal (fully depressing thepedal quickly to the end of travel posi-tion and switching off the ASR, if fitted,with a “lively” departure).

Downshifting to the 1st speed is possibleby operating the lever “−” behind thesteering wheel.

MOVING THE CAR

Starting the vehicle (setting off) is permit-ted in 1st and 2nd speed (recommended onroad surfaces with poor grip) and reverse(R).

Notes (concerning vehicle start up)

The gears can only be engaged by press-ing the brake pedal. If the brake pedal isnot depressed, the display will show a ded-icated message (see paragraph “Warninglights and messages”).

Higher speeds that 2a cannot be engaged:in this case the display will show a dedi-cated message (see paragraph “Warninglights and messages”).

When setting off on a medium-steep in-cline, it is advisable to engage the hand-brake.

Engaging the 2nd speed

Proceed as follows:

❒ press the brake pedal;

❒ press button 1 on the transmission panel;

❒ operate the lever “+” on the steeringwheel keeping the brake pedal de-pressed;

❒ release the brake pedal and press theaccelerator pedal.

15


Engaging reverse (R)

Reverse (R) can only be engaged with ve-hicle stationary and brake pedal depressed.

Proceed as follows:

❒ press the brake pedal (vehicle com-pletely stationary);

❒ press button R on the transmissionpanel;

❒ release the brake pedal and press theaccelerator pedal.

When reverse is engaged, the systememits an acoustic signal.

If the brake pedal is not depressed (andthe vehicle is stationary), the display willshow a dedicated message (see paragraph“Warning lights and messages”) and thesystem will automatically engage neutral(N).

ENGAGING NEUTRAL (N)

Neutral (N) can only be engaged with ac-celerator pedal released, regardless of thebrake pedal condition (depressed or not)(in any case, pressing the brake pedal is al-ways recommended).

The display will show the letter N to-gether with the active operating mode.

When trying to engage the neutral withaccelerator pedal depressed, the systemwill not accept the request and maintainthe speed engaged. In this case the displaywill show a dedicated message (see para-graph “Warning lights and messages”) andan acoustic signal is emitted.

To engage a speed from the neutral (N)position, press button 1 on the transmis-sion panel (it is not necessary to press thebrake pedal): the gearbox will immediate-ly choose the correct gear according tothe vehicle’s speed.

IMPORTANT With the vehicle in motion,the request is accepted and executed if thevehicle speed drops below 3 km/h within3 seconds from the request: if the requestis not executed, the system will keep thespeed engaged or, if the speed of the cardrops below 10 km/h, will put the gearboxin neutral (N) and the manoeuvre will haveto be repeated.

16


DISPLAYED INFORMATION

When the ignition key is turned to theMAR position, after about 1 second, the display will show the speed engagedand the last mode used (AUTO or MANUAL):

N = neutral;

1 = first speed;

2 = second speed;

3 = third speed;

4 = fourth speed;

5 = fifth speed;

R = reverse

The vehicle always starts with the modeAUTO active.

If the SPORT function is used, the display(fig. 17) inside the turbocharger pressuregauge will show the word SPORT.

IMPORTANT If 10 seconds elapse withthe ignition key in the MAR position andthe display does not show the gear en-gaged, turn the key to the STOP position,wait for the display to switch off and thenrepeat the manoeuvre. If the fault persists,contact an Abarth Dealership.

WARNING BUZZER

For safety reasons, an acoustic warning isemitted when parking the vehicle with thegearbox in neutral (N) (the warning canbe heard when the ignition key is turnedto the STOP position).

With the vehicle stationary, engine run-ning and (1st), (2nd) or (R) gear engaged,the system turns on the buzzer and au-tomatically shifts the gearbox to neutral(N) when:

❒ the accelerator and/or the brake pedalare not operated for at least 3 minutes;

❒ the brake pedal is pressed for longerthan 10 minutes;

❒ the driver’s door is opened and the ac-celerator pedal or the brake pedal arenot operated for at least 1.5 seconds;

❒ a fault is detected in the transmission.

fig. 17 F0S0287m

17


PARKING THE CAR

To park safely, keeping a foot on the brakepedal, the 1st or reverse (R) gear must beengaged and, in case of parking uphills/downhills, the handbrake must be en-gaged. Wait until the indication of the gearengaged disappears on the display beforereleasing the brake pedal.

IMPORTANT NEVER leave the car withthe gearbox in neutral (N).

GENERAL WARNINGS

❒ With car stationary and gear engaged,always keep the brake pedal presseduntil you decide to set off, then releasethe brake and accelerate gradually.

❒ During prolonged stops with the en-gine running, it is advisable to keep thegearbox in neutral (N).

❒ In order to safeguard the efficiency ofthe clutch, do not use the acceleratorto keep the car stationary (e.g. whenstopped on an incline); if the clutchoverheats it could be damaged. Usethe brake pedal or the hand brake andpress the accelerator pedal only whenyou decide to set off.

❒ Use the 2nd gear only when you needmore control when setting off for ma-noeuvres on surfaces with poor grip.

❒ If, with reverse (R) engaged, you needto engage the 1st speed or vice versa,change gear only with vehicle station-ary and brake pedal pressed.

❒ Although it is highly inadvisable, if youare driving downhill and, for unex-pected reasons, you let the car moveforward with the transmission in neu-tral (N), when there is a request to en-gage a speed, depending on the actu-al speed of the car, the system willautomatically engage the best speedfor the correct transmission of drivetorque to the wheels.

❒ When necessary, with the engineswitched off, it is possible to engagethe 1st speed, reverse (R) or neutral(N) with key in AVV position andbrake pressed. In this case, it is advis-able to change allowing at least 5 sec-onds to elapse between one gearchange and the next to safeguard theoperation of the hydraulic system andthe pump in particular.

❒ Fully and quickly depressing the accel-erator pedal activates a function thatallows a “lively” departure.

❒ For departures on a hill, acceleratinggradually but fully immediately afterhaving released the handbrake or thebrake pedal allows the engine to great-ly increase the number of revs andtackle the steepest gradients withmore torque at the wheels.
