2015 FIAT DUCATO BASE CAMPER lighting

Warning lights on
panelWhat it means What to do
amberDRIVING ADVISOR
The two warning lights on indicate that the system
has started recognising the operating conditions.
When the system recognises the operating
conditions, it becomes active, i.e. it can assist the
driver with visual and acoustic warnings. Therefore,
the warning lights switch off.
IMPORTANT If the operating conditions are no
longer present, the system is engaged but inactive,
and therefore the two warning lights on the panel
switch on.
When the system is active, if the vehicle gets close
to one of the side limit lines or one of the two
demarcation lines of the lane, the driver is warned
with an acoustic signal along with the direction
warning light (right or left) on the panel lighting up.
The system failure is indicated by the two direction
warning lights
andlighting up on the panel,
along with an acoustic signal and a dedicated
message.
