(In winter) the additional heater provides heat,
maintains the temperature and circulates the engine
coolant for the preset time in order to ensure the
optimum temperature conditions of the engine and the
passenger compartment when the engine is started up.
The heater can operate automatically when
programmed with a digital timer or manually by pressing
the “immediate heating” button on the timer.
After heater activation, either programmed or manual,
the electronic control unit operates the liquid
circulation pump and ignites the burner in accordance
with the preset, controlled procedures.
The circulation pump output is also controlled by the
electronic control unit in order to minimise the initial
heating time. When the system operates, the control unit turns on
the passenger compartment heater unit fan at the
second speed.
The thermal power of the boiler is regulated
automatically by the electronic control unit depending
on the temperature of the engine coolant.
IMPORTANT The heater is equipped with a thermal
limiter that cuts off combustion in the case of
overheating due to insufficient coolant/coolant leaks. In
this case, after repairing the fault in the cooling system
and/or topping up the fluid, press the program selection
button before turning the heater back on.
The heater can turn off spontaneously due to misfiring
after start-up or because the flame goes out during
operation. In this case, carry out the turning off
procedure and try to turn the heater back on. If it still
does not work, consult a Fiat Dealership.
Activation of the heating system
When an automatic climate control system is present,
the control unit sets the air temperature and
distribution when the heater is turned on from the park
position. When a manual heater/climate control is
present, to obtain maximum heater efficiency, check
that the passenger compartment heating/ventilation
temperature adjustment knob is in the ‘hot air’ position.
To prioritise passenger compartment pre-heating, set
the air distribution knob to the
©position.

2. Exhausted engine oil
(only Multijet versions with DPF)
The warning light will turn on flashing together with the
message on the display (for versions/markets where
provided). Depending on the versions, the warning light
flashing modes are as follows:
– one minute every two hours;
– for three minute cycles with the warning light off for
intervals of five seconds until oil is changed.
After the first indication, at each engine start up the
warning light will continue flashing as above described
until the oil is changed. For versions/markets where
provided, the display shows a dedicated message
together with the warning light.
If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that the
vehicle is defective, but simply informs the driver that it
is now necessary to change the oil as a result of regular
vehicle use.
Remember that the deterioration of the engine oil is
accelerated by:
– mainly town use of the vehicle which makes the DPF
regeneration process more frequent;
– use of the vehicle for short trips, preventing the
engine from reaching operating temperature;
– repeated interruption of the regeneration process,
signalled by the DPF warning light coming on. LOW BATTERY CHARGE (red)
The warning light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to MAR-ON, but it should go
out as soon as the engine has started (with the
engine running at idle speed a brief delay before going
out is acceptable).
If the warning light stays on constantly or keeps flashing:
contact immediately Fiat Dealership.
w
LIGHT STAYS ON: LOW ENGINE OIL
PRESSURE (red)
FLASHING: EXHAUSTED ENGINE OIL
(red)
(only Multijet versions with DPF)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR-ON, the
warning light switches on, and should go out as soon as
the engine is started.
1. Low engine oil pressure
The warning light turns on and stays on constantly
along with a message on the display (for versions/
markets where provided) when the system detects that
engine oil pressure is low.
v
If the warning light vturns on when
the car is travelling (on certain versions
together with the message on the display) stop
the engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
161-172 DUCATO LUM EN 7ed 6/21/10 2:14 PM Page 163

The warning light on the dial comes on constantly
(along with the display of the message and a buzzer) to
indicate that the automatic transmission oil
temperature is too high.
POSSIBLE ICE ON ROAD
This indication starts flashing when the outside
temperature reaches or falls below 3 °C to warn the
driver of the possible presence of ice on the road.
The display will show the dedicated message (only for
versions with a multifunction display).
LIMITED RANGE
(versions with multifunction display)
The display will show the dedicated message to warn
the driver that the vehicle’s range is less than 50 km.
SPEED LIMIT EXCEEDED
The display shows the dedicated message when the
vehicle exceeds the set speed limit (see “Multifunction
Display” in section “Dashboard and controls”).
