2016 FIAT DUCATO BASE CAMPER fuel reserve

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.

When the key is turned to MAR-ON, the warning
light switches on but should switch off after a few
seconds. The warning light 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.
IMPORTANT The warning light will blink to
indicate a system fault. If this is the case, go to a
Fiat Dealership to have the system checked.

PREHEATING FAILURE
Glow plug preheating
This warning light switches on when the key is
turned to MAR-ON. It will switch off as soon as the
glow plugs have reached a preset temperature.
IMPORTANT At high ambient temperatures the
warning light may stay on for an extremely short
time.Start the engine as soon as the warning light
switches off.
Glow plug preheating failure
The warning light flashes if there is a fault in the
preheating system.
On some versions, the display shows the
dedicated message.Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

❒lastly, remember that the vehicle’s
dynamic behaviour is affected by
the weight transported: in particular,
the stopping distances are longer,
especially at high speed.
IMPORTANT
36) Each of these must be strictly
observed and MUST NEVER BE
EXCEEDED in any case. In
particular, ensure that you never
exceed the maximum permitted
weights on the front and rear
axles when arranging the load on
the vehicle (particularly if the
vehicle is equipped with a specific
trim level).
WARNING
137) Irregular trajectories and abrupt
braking may cause sudden
movements of the load with
consequent situations of hazard
for the driver and passengers:
before setting off, secure the load
tightly using the appropriate
hooks on the floor and use steel
cables, ropes or chains strong
enough to hold the items to be
secured.
138) If a vehicle is parked on a very
steep gradient or with a side
gradient, opening the rear door or
side door could cause any
unsecured items to emerge
suddenly.
139) If you wish to carry a reserve of
petrol in a can, observe the legal
restrictions and only use a can
that is type-approved and
properly secured to the load
anchorage eyebolts. Anyway, by
doing so, you increase the risk
of fire in the event of an accident
with your vehicle.
SAVING FUEL
Some 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.

WARNING
207) Use AdBlue only according to DIN 70 070 and ISO 22241-1. Other fluids may cause damage to the system: also
exhaust emissions would no longer comply with the law.
208) The distribution companies are responsible for the compliance of their product. Observe the precautions of storage
and maintenance, in order to preserve the initial qualities. The manufacturer of the vehicle does not recognize any
guarantee in case of malfunctions and damage caused to the vehicle due to the use of urea (AdBlue) not in
accordance with regulations.
