Fuel Cut Off Switch - Fiat Idea Owner's Handbook Manual

FUEL CUT OFF SWITCH

The switch is located on the bottom of the
car, near the pillar on passenger side.
Move the carpet aside to reach the switch.
It is tipped by a crash and cuts off the fu-
el feed, thus stopping the engine.
When the device is activated the warn-
ing light turns on together with the rele-
vant message on the reconfigurable mul-
tifunctional display (where provided).
Inspect the car carefully for fuel leakages
(e.g. in the engine compartment), under
the car or near the fuel tank.
fig. 84
Press button A-fig. 84 to reactivate the
fuel feed system and turn the lights on if
no leakage is found and the car is worthy
of resuming travel.
After the accident, remember to turn the
ignition key to STOP to prevent draining
the battery.
WARNING
If, after a crash, you smell fu-
el or see leaks from the fuel
system, do not reset the switch to
avoid fine risk.
