SYSTEM ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
When the system is active, if the vehicle
gets close to one of the limit lines or
one of the two lane demarcation lines,
the driver is warned with an acoustic
signal (coming from the crossed line
side if the vehicle is equipped with the
radio navigation system) along with
the corresponding direction warning
light (
or) lighting up.
If the driver turns on the direction
indicator in order to change lanes or for
overtaking, then the system will switch
off the driver warning.
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. 128 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.).

REAR CAMERA
(PARKVIEW® REAR
BACK UP CAMERA)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
9)
81)
The car may be equipped with a
ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera,
which allows the driver to see the
surrounding area behind the vehicle on
the display when reverse is engaged
or the tailgate is opened fig. 129.
The image is displayed together with a
warning message: after about 5
seconds the message disappears.
When reverse is disengaged, the image
is still displayed for approx. 10
seconds, then it disappears and the
previously active screen is displayed
again. When reverse is released, an "X"
will be displayed to disable the images
earlier.
NoteThe displayed image is slightly
distorted in order to have a wide-angle
view.
The camera is installed in a plastic
support on the rear crossmember of
the roof, which also includes the third
brake light fig. 130.SYMBOLS AND
MESSAGES ON THE
DISPLAY
When displayed, the static line grid
illustrates the width of the car.
The grid shows separate areas,
permitting the distance from the rear of
the car to be detected.
The table below shows the
approximate distances for each area:

83) The system only detects the
preset traffic signs. If the
minimum visibility conditions and
distance from the sign are met
it can detect all traffic signs.
84) The system is a driving
assistance system but it does not
relieve the driver of the
responsibility of driving with due
attention and diligence in
compliance with the laws in force.
85) When the system is active, the
driver is responsible for
controlling the vehicle and
monitoring the system, and must
intervene as appropriate if
necessary.
IMPORTANT
10) If the sensor is blocked, the
system may not work.
11) In the case of low temperatures
or harsh weather conditions, the
system may not work.
12) Rain, snow, splashes and strong
light contrast may influence the
sensor.13) Do not repair the area of the
windscreen directly surrounding
the sensor.
14) If the vehicle is equipped with a
non-genuine suspension kit, the
system may not work correctly.
15) Always use genuine spare parts
when replacing the bulbs of the
headlights. Other bulbs may
reduce the system performance.
16) Clean the windscreen from
foreign matters such as bird
droppings, insects, snow or ice.
EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board
Diagnosis) allows continuous diagnosis
of emission-related components on
the vehicle to be made.
It also alerts the driver, by turning on
the
warning light in the instrument
panel (together with relevant message
in the multifunction display, for
versions/markets where provided) when
these components are no longer in
peak condition (see “Warning lights and
messages” paragraph).
The aim of the system is to:
❒monitor system efficiency;
❒indicate an increase in emissions due
to vehicle malfunction;
❒indicate the need to replace
components which have
deteriorated.
The system also has a connector that
can be interfaced with appropriate
equipment, which makes it possible to
read the error codes stored in the
control unit together with a series of
specific parameters for engine
operation and diagnosis. This check
can also be carried out by traffic control
authorities.
99
IMPORTANT After eliminating the
failure, to check the system completely,
Fiat Dealerships run a bench test and,
if necessary, road tests which may
also call for a long journey.PARKING SENSORS
The parking sensors are located in the
rear bumper fig. 132 and their function
is to inform the driver, through an
intermittent acoustic signal, about the
presence of obstacles behind the
vehicle.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated
when reverse gear is engaged.
As the obstacle behind the vehicle gets
closer to the bumper, the frequency
of the acoustic signal increases.ACOUSTIC SIGNAL
When reverse gear is engaged an
intermittent acoustic signal is
automatically activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒increase as the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle decreases;
❒becomes continuous when the
distance between the vehicle and the
obstacle is less than 30 cm and
stops immediately if the distance
increases;
❒remains constant if the distance
remains unchanged; if this situation
concerns the side sensors, the
buzzer will stop after about 3
seconds to avoid, for example,
warning indications in the event of
manoeuvres along walls.
If several obstacles are detected by the
sensors, only the nearest one is
considered.
FAULT INDICATIONS
Any parking sensor faults will be
indicated when reverse is engaged by
the warning light
in the instrument
panel or by the icon
on the
display and by the message in the
multifunction display (for versions/
markets, where provided)

ENGINE STOPPING
FAILURE CONDITIONS
18)
With the device activated, for reasons
of comfort, limiting emissions and
safety, the engine does not stop in
certain conditions, including:
❒engine still cold;
❒particularly cold external
temperatures, if the corresponding
indication is provided;
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒particulate filter regeneration in
progress (diesel engines only);
❒driver's door not shut;
❒driver's seat belt not fastened;
❒reverse gear engaged (for example,
for parking manoeuvres);❒automatic climate control, if a
suitable thermal comfort level has not
yet been reached or MAX-DEF
function activation;
❒during the first period of use, to
initialise the system;
❒if the Hill Descent Control system is
active.
RESTARTING
CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful
emissions and safety purposes, the
power unit can restart automatically
without any action by the driver if
certain conditions are met, including:
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒reduced braking system vacuum
(e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed
repeatedly);
❒vehicle in motion (e.g. when driving
on roads with a gradient);
❒stopping the engine through the
Start&Stop system for more than
about three minutes.
❒automatic climate control system for
adjusting the thermal comfort level or
to enable MAX-DEF function.
With a gear engaged, the engine can
be automatically restarted only by
fully depressing the clutch pedal.NoteIf the engine stops and this is not
desired, due for example to the clutch
pedal being released sharply with a
gear engaged, if the Start&Stop system
is active, the engine can be restarted
by fully depressing the clutch pedal
or by placing the gear lever in neutral.
NoteIf the clutch is not pressed, when
approx. three minutes have elapsed
since the engine was stopped, the
engine can only be restarted using the
key.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through
the Start&Stop system, if the driver
unfastens his/her seat belt and opens
the driver's door or the passenger door,
the engine can be restarted only by
using the key. The driver is notified of
this condition by a buzzer, through the
warning light flashing in the
instrument panel and, where provided,
by a message in the display.
