PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper fig. 123and their function is to
inform the driver, through an intermittent
buzzer, about the presence of obstacles
behind the car.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated
when the reverse gear is engaged.
As the distance from the obstacle behind
the car decreases, the acoustic alarm be-
comes more frequent.
BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an in-
termittent acoustic signal is automatically
activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒becomes louder as the reduction of
distance between the car and the ob-
stacle decreases;
❒becomes continuous when the dis-
tance between the car and the obsta-
cle is less that 30 cm and stops imme-
diately if the distance raises;
❒is constant if the distance is unvaried.
If this situation takes place for side sen-
sors, the signal is stopped after about
3 seconds to prevent sound indica-
tions when performing manoeuvres
near walls.
Direction distances
Central action radius 150 cm
Side action radius 60 cm
If several obstacles are detected, the con-
trol unit indicates the nearest one.
fig. 123F0L0143m
FAILURE INDICATIONS
In the event of sensor failures, the driver
is warned by the turning on of warning
light
èon the instrument panel and by
the relevant message on the display (see
section “Warning lights and messages”).
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
Parking sensor operation is deactivated
automatically when the trailer electric ca-
ble plug is fitted into the car tow hook
socket.
Sensors are reactivated when removing
the trailer cable plug.
In washing stations, clean sensors quickly
keeping the vapour jet/high pressure
washing nozzles at 10 cm at least from the
sensors.

GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care
to obstacles that may be set above or
under the sensors.
❒Objects set close to the car, under
certain circumstances are not detect-
ed and could therefore cause damages
to the car or be damaged.
❒Indications sent by the sensors can be
altered by dirt, snow or ice deposit-
ed on the sensors or by ultrasound
systems (e.g.: truck pneumatic brakes
or pneumatic hammers) set nearby the
car.
AT THE FILLING
STATION
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To prevent errors, the diameter of the fu-
el tank filler is too small to introduce a lead
petrol pump filler. Use petrol with a rat-
ed octane number (R.O.N.) not lower
than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst leads
to harmful exhaust emissions, thus con-
tributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol,
even in small amount or in an emergency,
as this would damage the catalyst beyond
repair. For proper operation, the
parking sensors shall always
be clean from mud, dirt, snow
or ice. When cleaning the sen-
sors, take the utmost care to prevent
their damaging; do not use therefore
dry or rough clothes. Sensors shall be
washed with clean water and car de-
tergent, if required.
Parking manoeuvres howev-
er are always under the dri-
ver’s responsibility that shall always
check the absence of people (spe-
cially children) or animals in the ma-
noeuvre space. This system is just a
help for the driver but she/he shall
never reduce attention during dan-
gerous manoeuvres even if performed
at low speed.

WARNING
LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
Parking sensor failure
(where provided)
The warning light on the dial turns on to-
gether with the message on the display
when failure is detected in parking sensors.
Contact Fiat Dealership.
Antipinch system failure
(where provided)
The warning light on the dial turns on to-
gether with the message on the display
when failure is detected in the antipinch
system.
Contact Fiat Dealership.
Twilight sensor failure
(where provided)
The warning light on the dial turns on (to-
gether with the message on the display)
when failure is detected in twilight sen-
sor (adjusting headlight sensitivity).Check tyre pressure
(where provided)
The warning light on the dial turns on (to-
gether with the message on the display),
when tyre pressure is low or excessive.
In this case, inflate tyres to the specified
pressure values (see paragraph “Inflating
pressures” in section “Technical Specifi-
cations”).
Flat tyres (where provided)
The warning light on the dial turns on (to-
gether with message on the display and
the buzzer), when there is a pressure drop
in one or more tyres. In this way the
T.P.M.S. system warns the driver that one
or more tyre/s is/are flat (i.e. punctured).
IMPORTANT Stop travelling with one or
more flat tyre/s since road holding could
be jeopardised. Stop the car without brak-
ing or steering sharply. Change immedi-
ately punctured wheel with space-saver
spare wheel (where provided - see sec-
tion “In an emergency”) and contact Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.Tyre pressure monitoring system
failure (where provided)
The warning light on the dial turns on (to-
gether with the message on the display)
when a failure is detected in the T.P.M.S.
system (where provided).
Contact Fiat Dealership as soon as possi-
ble.
Should one or more wheels without sen-
sor be fitted, the instrument panel warn-
ing light will come on (together with the
message on the display) and stay on until
fitting again the four wheels with sensors.
