2017 FIAT FIORINO stop start

FAILURE INDICATIONS
ABS failure
ABS failure is indicated by warning light
in the
instrument panel coming on (together with the
appropriate message on the multifunction display on
some versions) (see “Warning lights and messages”).
In this case, the braking system will work as normal,
but without the extra capacity offered by the ABS
system. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership
to have the system checked.
EBD failure
ABS failure is indicated by warning light
andin
the instrument panel coming on (together with the
appropriate message on the multifunction display
on some versions) (see “Warning lights and
messages”).
In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and
the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked.
WARNING
If only warning lightlights up in the
instrument panel (with a message in the
multifunction display on some versions), stop
the vehicle immediately and contact the nearest
Fiat Dealership. Fluid leaking from the
hydraulic system will compromise the operation
of the braking system, whether it is of the
conventional type or with ABS.

when the space-saver wheel is fitted. Before
carrying out the “Reset” procedure, inflate the
tyres to the rated pressure values specified in the
inflation pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph in
the "Technical specifications" chapter).
If the “Reset” procedure is not carried out, in all
above cases, the
warning light may give false
indications on one or more tyres.
To carry out the “Reset” procedure, with the vehicle
stopped and the ignition device at MAR, use the
Setup Menu as follows:
briefly press thebutton: the display will show
"Reset";
press thebutton or thebutton to select
("Yes" or "No");
briefly press thebutton: the display will show
"Confirm";
pressbutton orto select ("Yes" to
“Reset” or "No" to exit the video page);
press thebutton again to return to the standard
screen or to the main menu according to where
you are in the menu.
After the “Reset” the display will show the "Reset
saved" message, indicating that the "self-learning" has
been started.
Operating conditions
The system is active for speeds above 15 km/h. In a
few situations such as sporty driving, particular
conditions of the road surface (e.g. icy, snowy,unsurfaced roads...) the signalling may be delayed or
partial in detecting the contemporary deflation of
more than one tyre. Under special conditions (e.g.
vehicle loaded asymmetrically on one side, towing
a trailer, damaged or worn tyre, fitting the
space-saver wheel, use of the "Fix&Go Automatic"
kit, fitting snow chains, fitting different tyres on
the axles) the system may give false indications or be
temporarily deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated, the warning
light
flashes for about 75 seconds and then is
continuously on; at the same time, the display shows
a dedicated message. This indication is displayed
also after the engine has been switched off and then
on again if the correct operating conditions are
not restored.
WARNING
The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while
driving.The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the traffic
conditions in order to drive in complete safety.
The driver must always maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front .

WARNING
If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
WARNING
The laser beam is not visible at the
naked eye. Do not look directly, or with
optical instruments (e.g. lenses), at the laser
beam from a distance lower than 10 cm: this
may cause damage to the sight .The laser beam
is also present when the key is at MAR but its
operation is off, not available or manually
deactivated with the display Setup Menu.
WARNING
The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. Small sized
vehicles (e.g. bicycles or motorbikes) or people,
animals and things (e.g. pushchairs) and more in
general all those obstacles with a low reflection
of the light emitted by the laser (e.g. vehicles
soiled with mud) are not taken into
consideration.
WARNING
If the car must be placed on a roller
bench (at a speed within 5 and 30 km/h)
for maintenance interventions or if it is washed
in an automatic roller washing tunnel with an
obstacle in the front part (e.g. another car, a
wall or another obstacle), the system may
detect its presence and activate. In this case the
system must be deactivated through the
display Setup Menu.
The laser sensor may have limited or
absent operation due to weather
conditions such as: heavy rain, hail, thick
fog, heavy snow, formation of ice layers on the
windscreen.
Sensor operation may also be
compromised by the presence of dust ,
condensation, dirt or ice on the
windscreen, by traffic conditions (e.g. vehicles
that are driving not aligned with your car, vehicle
driving in a transverse or opposite way on the
same lane, bend with a small radius of curvature),
by road surface conditions and by driving
conditions (e.g. off-road driving). Make sure the
windscreen is always clean. Use specific
detergents and clean cloths to avoid scratching
the windscreen.The sensor operation may also be
limited or absent in some driving, traffic and
road surface conditions.

increase as the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle decreases;
become continuous when the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than 30 cm
and stop 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.
Detection distances
If several obstacles are detected by the sensors, only
the nearest one is considered.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
Any parking sensor failures will be indicated when
engaging reverse by the warning light
in the
instrument panel together with the message in the
multifunction display (for versions/markets, where
provided) (see the "Warning lights and messages"
chapter).
The sensor must be free of mud, dirt , snow
or ice in order for the system to work. Be
careful not to scratch or damage the
sensors while cleaning them. Avoid using dr y,
rough or hard cloths.The sensors should be
washed using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary.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.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is automatically
deactivated when the plug for the electric cable for
the trailer is inserted in the vehicle tow hook socket.
The sensors are automatically enabled again when
the trailer cable plug is removed.
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.
GENERAL WARNINGS
During parking manoeuvres, pay the utmost
attention to any obstacles that could be located
above or below the sensors.
Sometimes, objects located very near the rear of
the vehicle are not detected and could therefore
damage the vehicle or be damaged themselves.
