2016 FIAT QUBO warning

WARNING
If the remote control battery is flat , the
system can be engaged by inser ting
the metal key in the door lock as described
previously: in this case, the device only remains
active for the rear doors.
Switching the device on
The system is automatically enabled on all the doors
by pressing button
twice on the key with remote
control.
The direction indicators flash twice to let you know
that the device is active.
If one or more of the doors is not perfectly shut, the
dead lock device will not be activated, thus
preventing a person getting into the car through the
open door and, on shutting, it, remaining stuck
inside the passenger compartment.
Switching the device off
The system is disabled automatically on every door
when:
❒by unlocking the doors;
❒by turning the ignition key to the ON position.
ALARM(for versions/markets, where provided)
The alarm, in addition to all the previously described
remote control functions, is controlled by the
receiver located under the dashboard near the fuse
box.
ALARM TRIPPING
The alarm trips in the following cases:
❒unauthorised opening of a door, the bonnet, the
tailgate or a sliding side door (if present)
(perimeter protection)
❒unauthorized operation of the starting device (key
turned on using a key that is not enabled)
❒cutting of the battery leads
❒moving presence inside the passenger
compartment (volumetric protection)
❒anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.
Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm
causes the activation of the siren and the direction
indicators (for about 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and
the number of cycles depend on the sales market.
There are a maximum number of acoustic/visual
cycles. When this is reached the system returns to
normal operation.
Volumetric and antilifting protections are disabled by
pressing the control button installed on the front
dashboard (see paragraph "Antilift protections).

REV COUNTER
The rev counter fig. 9 shows the number of engine
revolutions per minute.
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 engine
speed.
This is normal and does not indicate a fault. It may be
caused, for example, by the operation of the climate
control system or the fan. In these cases, a gradual
variation in revs is used to protect the battery
charge.FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank.
Warning light A fig. 10 comes on to indicate that
approximately 6-7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
E - tank empty.
F - tank full (see the description in paragraph "Vehicle
refuelling" in this chapter).
Do not travel with the tank nearly empty to prevent
damaging the catalytic converter.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to E and warning
light A will flash to indicate a fault in the system. If
this is the case, contact a Fiat Dealership to have the
system checked.

temperature reaches the red area, stop
the engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
