CORRECT USE  OF THE CAR
IMPORTANT Turning the car off will
deactivate the electronic safety systems
and turn off the external lights.
IMPORTANT In the event of engine
locking while the car is running, due to
safety reasons it will not be possible to
take the electronic key out of the igni-
tion device. To remove it, turn the in-
strument panel on and off by pressing
button 
START/STOP with brake ped-
al (and clutch pedal) released and car
stopped. 
REMOVING THE ELECTRONIC
KEY FROM THE IGNITION
DEVICE IN AN EMERGENCY
In the event of a failure at engine switch-
ing off system or at electronic key un-
locking system proceed as follows:
❒ press the unlocking button to remove
the metal insert (see paragraph
“Electronic key” in section “Dash-
board and controls”);
❒ fit the metal insert B-fig. 1 of the
electronic key into the slot 
A;
❒ remove the electronic key from the
ignition device.
A quick burst on the ac-
celerator before turning
off the engine serves
absolutely no practical purpose,
it wastes fuel and is damaging
especially to turbocharged en-
gines.
IMPORTANT Only fit the metal insert
of the electronic key into slot A-fig.1.
IMPORTANT Stop the car before
emergency removal of the key, since re-
moving the key with the engine running
will turn both the engine and the in-
strument panel off and the steering lock
will not be engaged.
