2014 FIAT DUCATO BASE CAMPER low beam

When the ignition key is turned to
STOP or removed and the ring nut is
turned fromOto
, all the side lights
and the number plate lights come on.
The
warning light will come on
in the instrument panel.
MAIN BEAM HEADLIGHTS
When the ring nut is in position
,
pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel (2nd unstable position) fig. 59.
The
warning light switches on in the
instrument panel.
To turn the main beams off, pull the
stalk towards the steering wheel again
(dipped beams will come back on).FLASHING
Pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel (1st unstable position) fig. 60
regardless of the position of the ring
nut. The
warning light switches on
in the instrument panel.AUTOMATIC MAIN BEAM
HEADLIGHTS
The system is activated with the menu
item and by rotating the light selector to
the AUTO position.
When the main beam headlights are
activated for the first time, pulling the
stalk to turn them on activates the
function and the icon
is displayed;
if the main beam headlights are actually
on, the relevant blue warning light
is displayed as well.
If the driving speed is over 40 km/h and
the function is activated, pulling the
stalk again to the main beam headlight
position deactivates the function.
If the driving speed is below 15 km/h
and the function is activated, the
function switches the main beam
headlights off. Pulling the stalk again to
the main beam headlight position is
interpreted as a request for main beam
headlights constantly on, therefore
the blue warning light
on the panel
switches on and the main beam
headlights are constantly on until the
speed exceeds 40 km/h again. The
function is activated again automatically
when 40 km/h is exceeded
.

Warning light
or
will blink on the
instrument panel.

place the left stalk in the unstable
position for less than half a second. The
direction indicator on the side selected
will flash five times and then switch
off automatically.
“FOLLOW ME HOME”
DEVICE
This device allows the illumination of the
space in front of the vehicle for a preset
time.
Activation
With ignition key at OFF or removed,
pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel fig. 62 and move it within
2 minutes after the engine stops.Each time the stalk is moved, the lights
stay on for an extra 30 seconds up to
a maximum of 210 seconds; then

Deactivation
Keep the stalk pulled towards the
steering wheel fig. 62 for more than two
seconds.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT
SENSOR (dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It detects variations in brightness
outside the vehicle depending on the
light sensitivity setting: the greater
the sensitivity, the less outside light
needed to activate the exterior lights.
The sensitivity of the dusk sensor is
adjusted by means of the "Setup
menu" of the display.
Activation
Turn the ring nut to position
fig. 63:
this turns the side lights and the dipped
beam headlights on simultaneously
and automatically depending on the
exterior brightness conditions.
Deactivation
On the sensor’s deactivation command,
the main beam headlights will switch
off, followed by the side lights after
approximately 10 seconds.
The sensor is not capable of detecting
the presence of fog. Therefore, in
these circumstances, the lights have to
be turned on manually.
WARNING
23) The daytime running lights are
an alternative to dipped beam
headlights for driving during the
daytime. They are compliant in
countries where is it obligatory to
have lights on during the day
and permitted in those where it is
not obligatory. Daytime running
lights cannot replace dipped
beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The
use of daytime running lights is
governed by the highway code of
the country in which you are
driving. Comply with legal
requirements.24) The system is based on
recognition via a camera.
Particular environmental
conditions may affect the correct
recognition of traffic conditions.
Therefore, the driver is always
responsible for the correct use of
the main beam headlights in
compliance with the laws in force.
Rotate the ring nut to the
fig.
58 position to deactivate the
automatic function.
25) Should the camera tilt too much
due to a load variation, the system
may not work temporarily to allow
the camera to perform an
autocalibration.

ADJUSTING THE
HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped beam headlights are
aligned for operation in the country
where the vehicle was originally
purchased. When in countries where
you drive on the other side of the road,
you need to alter the beam direction
by affixing a specially designed
self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle
the vehicles travelling in the opposite
direction. Such film is provided by
Lineaccessori Fiat and is available at
Fiat Dealerships.
ABSThis is an integral part of the braking
system, which prevents one or more
wheels from locking or slipping
regardless of the road surface
conditions and braking intensity,
ensuring control of the vehicle even
during emergency braking.
The system intervenes when braking
and the wheels are about to lock,
typically in emergency braking or
low-grip conditions, when locking may
be more frequent.
The ABS ensures the direction of the
vehicle while braking and optimises the
braking distances at the same time.
The system also improves control and
stability of the car when braking on a
surface where the grip of the left and
right wheels varies, or when braking on
corners.
The system is completed by EBD
(Electronic Braking Force Distribution),
which distributes the braking action
between the front and rear wheels.
IMPORTANT To obtain the maximum
efficiency of the braking system, a
bedding-in period of about 500 km is
needed: during this period it is better to
avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.
46)
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS has
come into action because the brake
pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the car
speed should be altered to suit the type
of road surface.
47) 48) 48) 49) 50) 51) 52) 53)
MSR SYSTEM
(Motor Schleppmoment Regelung)
This system is an integral part of the
ABS and intervenes, if there is sudden
downshifting, restoring torque to the
engine, thereby preventing excessive
drive at the drive wheels which,
especially in poor grip conditions, could
lead to a loss in stability of the vehicle.
WARNING
46) The ABS exploits the grip
available to the full, but it cannot
improve it. Therefore, you should
take great care when driving on
slippery surfaces, without taking
unnecessary risks.

"Trip A" and "Trip B", for monitoring
the "complete mission" (journey)
of the vehicle in a reciprocally
independent manner. Both functions
can be reset (reset means start of
a new journey).
“Trip A” is used to display the figures
relating to:
❒Outside temperature
❒Range
❒Distance travelled A
❒Average consumption A
❒Instant fuel consumption
❒Average speed A
❒Trip time A (driving time).
