2014 FIAT DUCATO BASE CAMPER climate control

SPEEDOMETER (speed
indicator)
Indicator A shows the speed of the car.
REV COUNTER
Indicator C shows the engine revs.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off
the flow of fuel when the engine
is over-revving, resulting in a gradual
loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev
counter may indicate a gradual or
sudden increase of the speed.
This is normal and does not indicate a
fault. It may be caused, for example, by
the activation of the climate control
system or fan. In these cases, a slow
change in revs is used to protect the
battery charge.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
Needle E shows the amount of fuel left
in the tank.
E - tank empty.
F - tank full (see the description in
paragraph "Vehicle refuelling" in this
chapter).The warning light on the indicator
switches on when there are about
10-12 litres of fuel (for versions with
tank capacity 90-120 l) or 10 l (for
versions with tank capacity 60 l)
remaining in the tank.
Do not travel with the tank nearly empty
to prevent damaging the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to E
and the warning light will flash to
indicate a fault in the system. If this is
the case, go to a Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked.
IMPORTANT It is not advisable to
activate the additional Webasto heater
in reserve conditions.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
The needle D shows the temperature of
the engine coolant and starts
supplying indications when the fluid
temperature exceeds approx. 50°C. In
normal use, the needle could assume
different positions within the scale,
depending on the usage conditions.
C - Low engine coolant temperature.
H - High engine coolant temperature.The warning light on the indicator may
light up (and a message on the display
may appear on certain versions) to
indicate that the coolant fluid
temperature is too high; in this case,
stop the engine and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
19)
ENGINE OIL LEVEL
GAUGE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The gauge provides a graphic indication
of the level of oil in the engine.
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR-ON, the display fig. 145 - fig. 146
shows the oil level by lighting up /
switching off five symbols.
The gradual switching off of the
symbols indicates a decreasing oil level.145 - Versions with multifunction display

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

- briefly press the MODE button to
store the new setting and go to the
next settings menu option. If this is the
last one, the system brings you back
to the previously selected menu option.
Press the button MODE for long:
- to exit the set-up menu if you are in
the main menu;
- to exit the main menu if you are in
another point of the menu (e.g.: at
submenu option setting level, at
submenu level or at main menu option
setting level);
- to save only the changes stored by
the user (and confirmed by pressing the
MODE button).
The setup menu environment is timed;
when the menu is exited due to expiry
of the time allowed, only the changes
already stored by the user (confirmed
beforehand by a brief press of the
MODE button) will be saved.
From the standard screen, briefly press
button MODE to start navigation.
Press the
or
buttons to
navigate within the menu.NoteOnly the reduced menu can be
accessed while the vehicle is moving
for safety reasons ("Speed Beep"
setting). Stop the vehicle to access the
full menu.
Lighting
(Passenger compartment light
adjustment)
(only with side lights on)
This function is used to set the
brightness of the instrument panel,
uconnect™system controls (for
versions/markets where provided) and
automatic climate control system
controls (for versions/markets where
provided) to 8 levels.
Proceed as follows to adjust the light
intensity:
❒briefly press the MODE button. The
level set previously flashes on the
display;
❒press button
or
to set
the required brightness level;
❒briefly press the MODE button to
return to the menu screen or hold the
button down to return to the
standard screen without storing.NoteOn versions with reconfigurable
multifunction display adjustment can be
made both with lights off ("daytime"
mode brightness level) and with lights
on ("nighttime" mode brightness level).
Headlight alignment
(Headlight alignment
corrector position
adjustment)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This function permits the adjustment (to
4 levels) of the headlight alignment
corrector position.
To carry out the adjustment, proceed as
follows:
❒briefly press the MODE button. The
level set previously flashes on the
display;
❒press button
or
to adjust
the position;
❒briefly press the MODE button to
return to the menu screen or hold the
button down to return to the
standard screen without storing.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

SAVING FUELSome useful tips are given below for
fuel saving and reducing harmful
emissions of CO2 and other pollutants
(nitrogen oxides, unburnt
hydrocarbons, Particulate Matter (PM),
etc.).
GENERAL
CONSIDERATIONS
The general factors that affect fuel
consumption are listed below.
Vehicle maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried
out in accordance with the “Scheduled
Servicing Plan”.Tyres
Check the tyre pressures at least once
every four weeks: if the pressure is
too low, consumption levels increase as
resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded
luggage compartment. The weight of
the vehicle (especially when driving
in town) and its geometry greatly affect
fuel consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof after use. These
accessories decrease aerodynamic
penetration of the vehicle and have a
negative effect on fuel consumption.
When transporting particularly large
objects, use a trailer if possible.Electric devices
Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The heated
rear window, additional headlights,
windscreen/rear window wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount
of energy, therefore increasing fuel
consumption (by up to 25% in
the urban cycle).
Climate control system
Air conditioning leads to higher fuel
consumption (on average up to +20%).
If the temperature outside permits, try
and use the ventilation only.
Devices for
aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified spoilers may
adversely affect air drag and fuel
consumption.

FUEL CONSUMPTIONThe fuel consumption figures given in the tables below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by
specific European Directives.
These consumption values refer to basic vehicles without optionals.
The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: begins with cold starting, followed by driving simulating the use of the vehicle in town;
❒extra-urban cycle: driving that simulates using the vehicle out of town with frequent acceleration in all gears; the speed varies
from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle and 63% of the extra-urban
cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of the vehicle, trim
level/equipment/accessories, climate control system, vehicle load, roof rack, other situations that affect aerodynamics or air
drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than those measured.
