2014 FIAT DUCATO signals

IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to
meet requirements in various countries.
Disengagement
Press the door release/load
compartment release button on the key
with remote control.
The following operations are performed
(excluding some markets):
❒direction indicators flash twice;
❒there are two short acoustic signals
(beeps);
❒unlocking of the doors.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not switch
off when the central opening is
activated using the metal insert in the
key.
Break-in attempt
indication
Any break-in attempt is indicated by the
turning on of warning light
on the
instrument panel together with the
message on the display (where
provided, see paragraph “Warning
lights and messages” in the “Knowing
the instrument panel” section).Disabling
To permanently disable the alarm (e.g.
during a long period of inactivity), simply
lock the vehicle by turning the metal
insert of the key with remote control in
the lock.
IMPORTANT If the batteries of the key
with the remote control run out or
the system fails, the alarm can
be switched off by placing the key in
the ignition switch and turning it to
MAR-ON.
IGNITION SWITCHThe key can be turned to 3 different
positions fig. 10:
❒STOP: engine off, key extractable,
steering locked. Some electrical
devices (e.g. sound system, central
door locking system, etc.) can
operate;
❒MAR-ON: driving position. All
electrical devices are enabled;
❒AVV: engine starting (unstable
position).
The ignition switch is fitted with an
electronic safety system that requires
the ignition key to be turned back
to STOP if the engine will not start,
before the starting operation can be
repeated.

❒interference caused by electronic
devices or radio frequency emissions
similar to those of the TPM sensors.
❒Application of tinted films which
interfere with the signals of the radio
waves.
❒Presence of snow or ice on the
wheels or the wheel arches.
❒Use of snow chains.
❒Use of wheels/tyres not equipped
with TPM sensors.
❒The space-saver wheel is not
equipped with the tyre pressure
control sensor. Therefore, the tyre
pressure is not controlled by the
system.
❒If the space-saver wheel replaces a
tyre with a pressure lower than the
insufficient pressure limit, an acoustic
signal will be emitted and the warning
light
will switch on at the next
ignition cycle.❒When the original tyre is repaired or
replaced and it is mounted back on
the vehicle to replace the space-
saver wheel, the TPMS will update
automatically and the warning light
will switch off, provided that the
pressure of none of the four tyres is
below the insufficient pressure limit.
You may need to drive the vehicle for
about 20 minutes at a speed higher
than 20 km/h to allow the TPMS
to receive this information.IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
WARNING
65) The TPMS is optimised for the
original tyres and wheels
provided. TPMS pressures and
alerts have been defined
according to the size of the tyres
mounted on the vehicle. Using
equipment with different size,
type or kind may cause irregular
system operation or sensor
damage. Non-original spare
wheels can damage the sensor.
Do not use tyre sealant or
balancing weights if the vehicle is
equipped with TPMS as these
may damage the sensors.
66) If the system signals a pressure
decrease on a specific tyre, it is
recommended to check the
pressure on all four tyres.
67) TPMS does not relieve the driver
from the obligation to check the
tyre pressure every month; it is
not even to be considered a
replacing system for maintenance
or a safety system.

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

If the driver keeps deliberately with the
lane change manoeuvre, the system
interrupts the warning, remaining
enabled if the operating conditions are
not satisfied or active if the operating
conditions are exceeded (see the
dedicated paragraph).
SWITCHING OFF THE
SYSTEM
Manual mode
The system can be switched off by
pressing button A fig. 127 on the
dashboard.
The LED on the button switches on and
a message appears on the display to
confirm that the system has been
switched off.
Automatic mode
If the Start&Stop is active the system
deactivates automatically. The system
will reactivate and check its operating
conditions again after the vehicle has
been started.SYSTEM FAILURE
In the case of malfunction the system
signals the fault to the driver with a
message on the display, an acoustic
warning and switching on of the icon
on the display (for versions/markets,
where provided).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The Driving Advisor cannot operate due
to a not perfectly balanced and
excessive load.
The operation of the system can be
adversely affected in some cases
by the morphology of the territory/road
being driven on (e.g. driving over
humps), poor visibility conditions (e.g.
fog, rain, snow), extreme light
conditions (e.g. glare of the sun,
darkness), lack of cleanliness
or damage, even partial, to the
windscreen in the area in front of the
camera.
The Driving Advisor cannot operate
following a malfunction of the following
safety systems: ABS, ESP, ASR and
Traction Plus.The operation of the system can be
adversely affected by poor visibility
conditions (e.g. fog, rain, snow),
extreme light conditions (glare of the
sun, darkness), lack of cleaning or
damage, even partial, to the
windscreen in the area in front the
camera.
The area of the windscreen by the
camera must not be partly or totally
obscured by objects (e.g. stickers,
protective film, etc.).
WARNING
74) If the camera loses its position
due to a load variation, the system
may not work temporarily to allow
the camera to perform an
autocalibration.
75) The Driving Advisor is not an
automatic driving system and
does not replace the driver in
controlling the trajectory of the
car. The driver is personally
responsible for maintaining a
sufficient level of attention to the
traffic and road conditions and
for controlling the trajectory of the
car safely.

❒Objects close to the vehicle, in
certain circumstances are not
detected and could therefore cause
damage to the vehicle or be
damaged.
The following conditions may influence
the performance of the parking
assistance system:
❒Reduced sensor sensitivity and a
reduction in the parking assistance
system performance could be due to
the presence on the surface of the
sensor of: ice, snow, mud, thick
paint.
❒The sensor may detect a non-
existent obstacle (echo noise) due to
mechanical noises, for example
when washing the vehicle, in case of
rain, strong wind, hail.
❒The signals sent by the sensors can
also be altered by the presence of
ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brake systems or pneumatic drills)
near the vehicle.❒The performance of the parking
assistance system may also be
affected by the position of the
sensors. For example by a change in
the ride setting (caused by the wear
of the shock absorbers, suspension),
changing the tyres, overloading the
vehicle and carrying out specific
tuning operations that require the
vehicle to be lowered.
❒Detection of obstacles in the upper
part of the vehicle (particularly in the
case of vans or chassis cabs) may
not be guaranteed because the
system detects obstacles that could
strike the lower part of the vehicle.
IMPORTANT
16) The sensor must be clean of
mud, dirt, snow or ice in order for
the system to operate correctly.
Be careful not to scratch or
damage the sensors while
cleaning them. Avoid using dry,
rough or hard cloths. The sensors
must be washed using clean
water, with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary.
WARNING
82) The responsibility for parking
and other dangerous manoeuvres
always and in every case lies
with the driver. While carrying out
these manoeuvres, always make
sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the
area concerned. The parking
sensors are used to assist the
driver, who must never allow his
attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed
at low speeds.
