2006 FIAT DUCATO stop start

The CODE card fig. 4is also sup-
plied with the keys and it bears the fol-
lowing:
A- the electronic code to be used
for emergency starting (see “Emer-
gency start-up” in the “In an emer-
gency” section);
B- the mechanical key code to be
given to the Fiat Dealershipwhen
ordering duplicate keys.
Keep the CODE card in a safe place.
You should always have the elec-
tronic code number written on the
CODE card with you at all times in
case you need to perform an emer-
gency start-up. OPERATION
Each time the ignition key is turned
to STOP, or PARK, the protection
system will automatically immobilise
the engine.
When the key is turned to MARto
start the engine:
1)If the code is recognised the Y
fig. 5warning light on the instrument
panel will flash briefly: this means that
the protection system has recognised
the key code and disabled the engine
immobiliser. Turn the key to AVV, to
start.
2)If the Ywarning light stays on,
the code was not recognised. In this
case, turn the key to STOPand then
back to MAR. If the engine remains
immobilised, try with the other keys
provided.

If the ignition switch has
been tampered with (e.g.
someone has tried to steal your ve-
hicle), get a Fiat Dealership to make
sure it is still functioning properly
before you start driving again.
WARNING
When you get out of the
vehicle, always remove the
ignition key. This will prevent any-
one from accidentally working the
controls. Remember to apply the
handbrake and, if the vehicle is
faced up on a steep slope engage
the first gear. If it is facing down,
engage the reverse gear. Never
leave children in the vehicle by
themselves.
WARNING
Never remove the ignition
key while the vehicle is
moving. The steering wheel will au-
tomatically lock as soon as you try
to turn it. This also applies when
the vehicle is being towed.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifi-
cations (e.g.: installation of anti-
theft Device) that could badly af-
fect performance and safety, cause
the lapse of warranty and also re-
sult in non-compliance of the car
with homologation requirements.

Under normal conditions, the needle
should hover around the middle of the
scale.
If it approaches the red section, it
means that the engine is being over-
taxed and you should reduce your de-
mand on it.
Also travelling too slowly when the
outside temperature is very hot can
cause the needle to approach the red
sector. In this case, it is better to stop
and turn the engine off. After a few
moments you can start the engine
again and accelerate slightly.SPEEDOMETER

IMPORTANT The electronic sys-
tem progressively blocks fuel flow to
prevent engine from overrevving. This
will lead to a progressive loss of en-
gine power. If the situation persists
even after the measures
you have taken, turn off
the engine and have the vehicle
seen at a Fiat Dealership.

LOW ENGINE OIL
PRESSURE (red)
When the engine oil pres-
sure falls below the normal level. The
light comes on when you turn the ig-
nition key to MARand should go out
as soon as the engine starts.
A delay in the light going out is ac-
ceptable when the engine is idling. If
the engine has been taxed heavily, the
light may flash when idling. It should,
however, go out when you acceler-
ate slightly.vASR (ANTISLIP
REGULATION
SYSTEM) (amber)
Turning the ignition key to MAR,
the warning light turns on, but it
should go off after few seconds.
The warning light flashes when the
system cuts in, to alert the driver that
the system is adapting to the road sur-
face grip conditions.
When the system is turned off with
the specific button, the warning light
comes on without flashing.
When the system is on and an ASR
fault is detected, the warning light
comes on without flashing. Check that
the information is correct by pressing
the button once (in this way, if the
system is working and the ASR is re-
stored, the warning light will go off,
but if there is a system failure, the ASR
will not be restored and the warning
light will stay on).
In this case contact a Fiat Dealer-
shipas soon as possible.PASSENGER SIDE

EOBD ENGINE
FAILURE CONTROL
SYSTEM
(petrol versions only) (amber)
In normal conditions, the warning
light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to MARand should go
out as soon as the engine is started.
The initial lighting up shows that the
warning light is working properly.
If the warning light either stays on or
comes on while travelling:
1. Fixed light- warning of a fuel
feed/ignition system failure which may
increase emissions in exhaust or cause
possible drops in performance, poor
handling and high consumption.
In such conditions, you can contin-
ue driving but you should not tax the
engine and you should moderate the
speed. Prolonged use with the warn-
ing light on can cause damage. Contact
a Fiat Dealershipas soon as possi-
ble. The warning light will go out when
the failure disappears. In any case, the
system will store the error.
2. Flashing- warning that the cata-
lyst can be damaged (see “EOBD sys-
tem” in this chapter).
If the warning light starts flashing, re-
lease the accelerator pedal and slow
the engine until the warning light stops
flashing. Continue driving at moderate
speed, preventing the warning light
from coming on again. Contact a Fi-
at Dealership as soon as possible.INJECTION SYSTEM
FAILURE
(diesel versions) (red)
When there is a fault in the injection
system.
The warning light should come on
when the ignition key is turned to
MARand go out after a few seconds.
The warning light will stay on or come
on when travelling to indicate imperfect
operation of the injection system with
possible loss of performance, poor han-
dling and higher consumption.
In these conditions, you can contin-
ue driving but you should avoid de-
manding efforts from the engine or
high speeds. Contact a Fiat Dealer-
shipas soon as possible.
Prolonged use of the vehicle with the
warning light on can cause damage to
the engine, especially in the event of
misfiring. The vehicle can only be dri-
ven for a short period of time at low
speeds.
Occasional and brief lighting of the
warning light is meaningless.

Contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship as soon as possible if
the
Uwarning light ei-
ther does not come on when the
key is turned to MAR or comes
on, with fixed light or flashing
light, when travelling. Warning

AUTOMATIC
GEARBOX OIL TOO
HOT (red)
Turning the ignition key to MARthe
warning light shall come on and go off
after about 4 seconds. If the warning
light stays on or comes on when trav-
elling, it indicates that there is a failure
in the gearbox (flashing light) or that
the gearbox oil is too hot (fixed light).
– Fixed light= automatic gearbox
oil max. temperature.
Warning light coming on with fixed
light when travelling indicates that
gearbox oil temperature has reached
the max. set limit; in this case stop the
vehicle, set the gear selector to “N”
or “P” with engine idling, (in this case
engine cooling fans are on), until the
warning light goes off. You can then
continue driving but you should not
tax the engine.
If the warning light comes on again,
stop the vehicle with engine idling and
wait until the warning light goes off.If the warning light comes on again
after less than 15 minutes, stop the ve-
hicle, do not switch off the engine but
wait for proper cooling of the engine
/ gearbox unit (both engine cooling
fans off).
– Flashing light= automatic gear-
box failure.
Warning light flashing at starting or
when travelling indicates a fault in the
automatic gearbox.
Engaging the 3rd gear, the automat-
ic control system starts an “emer-
gency programme”.
Switching the engine off and then on
again, the self-test system could ex-
clude the fault and therefore turn off
the warning light.
Failure is however stored and the au-
tomatic gearbox shall be checked at
a Fiat Dealership.ENGINE COOLANT

– a control unit connected to the
heater/ventilation unit for automatic
operation;
– an electronic control unit to check
and adjusted the integrated heater
burner;
– a digital timer A-fig. 85to start the
heater manually or to program staring
time.In cold weather, the supplementary
heater automatically warms and cir-
culates constant temperature fluid in
the engine cooling system for the time
required to ensure optimal engine ig-
nition and cab temperature conditions.
The heater can be started automat-
ically (programmed by means of the
digital timer) or manually by pressing
the “heat now” button on the timer.
When the heater is turned on (au-
tomatically or manually), the electronic
control unit operates the fluid circu-
lation pump and safely ignites the burn-
er.The electronic control unit also con-
trols the circulation pump delivery in
order to reduce initial heating time.
When the fluid reaches a temperature
of 30°C, the control unit operates the
passenger compartment ventilation
fan.
When the fluid temperature reaches
72°C, the electronic control unit re-
duces the burner power and stops op-
eration when it reaches 76.5°C. The
timer, circulation pump and heater fan
are kept running. When the fluid tem-
perature drops under 71°C the con-
trol unit automatically turns the burn-
er back on.
