2017 FIAT DUCATO BASE CAMPER instrument panel

When the device is turned on, the
warning light turns on together with
the corresponding message on the
instrument panel.
Storing vehicle speed
Proceed as follows:
turn the ring A fig. 110 - fig. 111 to
the ON position or
(depending
on the version) and press the
accelerator pedal to take the vehicle to
the desired speed;
move the stalk upwards (+) for at
least one second, then release it. The
vehicle speed is now stored and you
can therefore release the accelerator
pedal.
Increasing/reducing the stored
speed
Once the Cruise Control is activated,
you can increase the speed by moving
the lever upwards (+) or decrease it
by moving the lever downwards (-).
Each movement of the stalk will
correspond to a slight reduction in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held downwards will decrease
the speed continuously.
Turning the device off
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
turning ring nut A to OFF orO
(according to the version);
by switching off the engine;
Deactivating the function
The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
turning ring nut A to OFF orO
(according to the version);
pressing the button B, both with
symbolIIand symbol CANC/RES, the
system pauses;
by switching off the engine;
by pressing the brake pedal or
operating the handbrake;
by pressing the clutch pedal;
requesting a gear shift with an
automatic transmission in sequential
mode;
with the vehicle speed below the set
limit
by pressing the accelerator pedal; in
this case the system is not actually
turned off but the acceleration request
takes priority; the Cruise Control
remains activated, without the need to
press the CANC/RES button to restore
the previous conditions once the
acceleration is over.
The device is automatically switched off
in the following cases:
if the ABS or ESC systems
intervene;
in the event of system failure.

STARTING AND DRIVING

When the device is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the accelerator
pedal, until the programmed speed limit
is reached (see "Speed limit
programming" paragraph).
If necessary (in the event of overtaking
for example), the set speed limit can
be exceeded by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal.
By gradually reducing the pressure on
the accelerator pedal, the function
will be reactivated as soon as the
vehicle speed drops below the
programmed speed.
Turning the device on
To turn the device on, turn the ring A
fig. 112 to the
position.
When the device is turned on, the
warning light on the instrument
panel turns on and, on some versions,
a message and the last programmed
speed value appears on the display.Automatic device disable
The device is disabled automatically in
the event of fault in the system.
WARNING
120)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
121)If the device is faulty, turn ring nut A
toO, check the condition of the fuse
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
SPEED BLOCK
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The vehicle is equipped with a speed
limitation function that can be set at the
user's request to one of 4 predefined
values: 90, 100, 110, 130 km/h.
To activate/deactivate this function,
contact a Fiat Dealership.

PARKING SENSORS
The parking sensors are located in the
rear bumper fig. 113 and serve 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 WARNING
When reverse gear is engaged an
intermittent acoustic signal is
automatically activated.
The acoustic warning:
increases 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;
it 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
When reverse is engaged, any parking
sensor faults will be indicated by the
warning light on the instrument panel
or by the
icon on the display
and by the message in the multifunction
display (for versions/markets, where
provided)
OPERATION WITH A
TRAILER
Parking sensor operation is
automatically deactivated when the
electric cable plug of the trailer is
inserted into the vehicle tow hook
socket.The sensors are automatically
reactivated when the trailer's cable plug
is removed.
122)
25)
IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the
tow hook fitted without towing a trailer,
it is advisable to contact a Fiat
Dealership for the relevant system
update operations because the tow
hook could be detected as an obstacle
by the central sensors.
When using special washing equipment
such as high pressure jets or steam
cleaning, clean the sensors very quickly
keeping the jet more than 10 cm away.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Do not apply stickers to the sensors.
When parking, take the utmost
care over obstacles that may be above
or under the sensor.
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:

STARTING AND DRIVING

WARNING
123)The responsibility for parking and
other manoeuvres is always and in any
case charged to the driver. While carrying
out these manoeuvres, always make
sure that no people (especially children) or
animals are in the area concerned. The
camera is an aid for the driver, but the
driver must never allow his/her attention to
lapse during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed at low
speeds. Always keep a slow speed, so
as to promptly brake in the case of
obstacles.
WARNING
26)It is vital, for correct operation, that the
camera is always kept clean and free
from any mud, dirt, snow or ice. Be careful
not to scratch or damage the camera
while cleaning it. Avoid using dry, rough or
hard cloths. The camera must be washed
using clean water, with the addition of
car shampoo if necessary. In washing
stations which use steam or high-pressure
jets, clean the camera quickly, keeping
the nozzle more than 10 cm away from the
sensors. Also, do not apply stickers to
the camera.

STARTING AND DRIVING

wait for the warning on the
instrument panel to switch off before
moving the vehicle, the warning light
may stay on for a few seconds to half a
minute. In case of motor start-up and
movement of the vehicle, the warning
light will remain on for a longer period of
time, but there are no problems on the
engine functionality. If topping up is
done with the UREA tank empty, you
have to wait two minutes before
starting the vehicle.
When refuelling the additive for
Diesel Emissions AdBlue (UREA)
with bottle:
park the vehicle on ground level;
turn off the engine by turning the key
in the OFF position;
open the fuel flap A fig. 116 and
then unscrew and remove the cap C
fig. 116 from the UREA filler;
screw the bottle of AdBlue (UREA)
into the filler until it is fully tightened (fig.
117, ref. 1);
press the bottom of the bottle
towards the filler to release the bottle's
safety valve and start topping up (fig.
117 ref. 2);
if the level of AdBlue in the bottle
does not drop while topping up, it
means that you have filled the reservoir,
so pull the bottle towards you to
re-close the bottle's safety valve and
unscrew the bottle from the filler (fig.
117, ref. 3);
after removing the bottle, refit the
cap C fig. 116 on the UREA filler by
turning it clockwise until it is fully
tightened;
turn the key in the pawl starter in the
ON position (no need to start the
engine);
wait for the warning on the
instrument panel to switch off before
moving the vehicle, the warning light
may stay on for a few seconds to half a
minute. In case of motor start-up and
movement of the vehicle, the warning
light will remain on for a longer period of
time, but there are no problems on the
engine functionality;
if topping up is done with the UREA
tank empty, you have to wait two
minutes before starting the vehicle;
NoteThe driving conditions (altitude,
vehicle speed, load, etc.) determine the
quantity of UREA used by the vehicle.
In order to use the additive for Diesel
Emissions (UREA) correctly, see "Fluids
and lubricants" in the "Technical data".
131)
IMPORTANT
Exceeding the maximum filling level
of the tank UREA, it can cause damage
to the tank and spilling UREA. Please
avoid topping up after filling the tank.

These two systems ensure compliance
with the diesel emissions requirements;
at the same it maintains fuel saving
levels, driveability, torque and power.
For the system messages and warnings
refer to the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph in the "Knowing
the instrument panel" section.
Notes
When you stop the vehicle you
could hear a distinct click coming from
under the vehicle due to the UREA
injection system, this is normal.
The UREA injection system pump
continues to operate for a short period
of time after the engine is switched
off, to purge the circuit. This is normal,
and you can still hear its noise from
under the vehicle.
VERSION WITH
METHANE SYSTEM
(Natural Power)
37) 38)
INTRODUCTION
The "Natural Power" version of the Fiat
Ducato features two fuel system, one
primary natural gas (methane) system
and one emergency petrol system.
METHANE CYLINDERS
The vehicle is equipped with five
cylinders (total capacity of about 218
litres) located under the vehicle floor
and protected by two special shields.
The cylinders are the tank that contains
the methane in its compressed
gaseous state (nominal pressure of 200
bar at 15°C). The methane, stored in
the cylinders at high pressure, flows
through a dedicated pipe to reach the
pressure regulator/reduction unit which
supplies the 4 methane injectors at
low pressure (about 6 bar).
IMPORTANT If gas is smelled, switch
from methane operation to petrol
operation and immediately go to a Fiat
Dealership to have the vehicle checked
and possible system faults excluded.FUEL SWITCHING
LOGICS
Management of switching between the
two different fuel supplies is fully
automatic, and carried out by the
engine control unit.
When the residual amount of methane
drops below 1/5 of the cylinder
capacity, the lowest level and the edges
of the other levels flash to indicate the
reserve state and that refuelling fig. 119
is required.
If the methane runs out, it is
automatically switched to petrol; on the
display, all the empty segments stop
flashing and then the
indicator near
the CNG icon fig. 120 turns on.
Having reached the reserve methane
pressure threshold, and completely
filled the methane tank, the system
forces the switch to petrol for 5
seconds, with the aim of keeping the
petrol fuel supply system fully efficient.
