• Press button A (Fig. 2) and check that the electric brake is activated by the characteristic noise that testifies to the fact that the battery is working and so too is the actual brake.

• Reconnect the lead to the negative battery terminal and carry out the initialization procedures for the control units for the central locking, climate control and ESP systems, required each time the battery is disconnected and described below for quick reference.

• Close all the doors and the boot lid, place the key in one of the front door locks and carry out a central locking opening/closing cycle. All the locks will be aligned in this way.
• Switch on the engine and switch on the air conditioning compressor setting a temperature below ambient temperature, check whether the LED in the air conditioning compressor off button comes on.
• After having turned the steering wheel at least a quarter of a turn (this operation can be carried out either with the engine switched off or running), start driving for a few metres in a straight line until the ESP warning light goes out.

The system requires the navigation CD to be inserted for a change of language (where there is no SETUP one) following the instructions that appear on the display; this operation takes several minutes, at the end, press the 'Cancel' button to exit the screen.

If there is no GPS signal, the Date and the Time must also be set following the instructions given below:
