IMPORTANT
2)The system uses a coolant that is
compatible with the laws in force in the
countries where the vehicle is sold, R134a
or R1234yf (indicated on a specific plate in
the engine compartment). The use of other
coolants affects the efficiency and condition
of the system. Also the compressor
coolants used must be compatible with the
indicated coolant.
RADAR PARKING
52)
12) 13) 14)
Operating principle
The ultrasound sensors installed in the
rear bumpers (depending on the vehicle
version) "measure" the distance
between the vehicle and an obstacle.
If they detect an obstacle, the sensors
set off an acoustic warning, which
frequency increases when getting
closer to the obstacle, until it becomes
a single sound when the obstacle is
about 30 centimetres from the vehicle.
NOTE Make sure you check that the
ultrasound sensors are not covered
(with dirt, mud, snow, etc.).
NOTE Depending on the versions, the
display lets you see the vehicle's
surrounding area to complement the
acoustic warning signal.Operation
When you put the gear in reverse, most
of the objects located less that
1.20 meters from the rear of the vehicle
are detected, an acoustic warning
signal goes off and, depending on the
type of vehicle, display 1 fig. 99 lights
up.
Adjusting the assisted parking
acoustic volume
Depending on the vehicle type, you can
adjust a few parameters on the
multi-media display screen.
Temporary system deactivation
Press switch 2 fig. 100 to deactivate
the system.

REAR CAMERA
Operation
53)
15)
When in reverse, video camera 1
fig. 101 located on the tailgate or on the
rear swing door, depending on the
vehicle, lets you view the area behind
the vehicle on the inside rear view
mirror 2 fig. 102 or on the multi-media
display panel 3 fig. 103, along with one
or two shapes 4 fig. 104and 5
fig. 104(moving and stationary).
NOTE Check that the rear view video
camera is not covered up (dirt, mud,
snow, etc.).NOTE Depending on the versions,
adjust a few of the parameters on the
multi-media display panel 3 fig. 103.
Moving shape 4 (depending on the
vehicle): is represented in blue on the
multi-media display panel 3fig. 103.It
indicates the vehicle's trajectory
according to the steering wheel
position.Stationary shape 5: the stationary
shape consists of coloured references
A, B and C fig. 104that indicate the
distance behind the vehicle:
A (red) about 30 centimetres from the
vehicle;
B (yellow) about 70 centimetres from
the vehicle;
C (green) about 150 centimetres
from the vehicle.
This shape remains stationary and
indicates the vehicle's trajectory if the
wheels are aligned.
This system is initially used by making
use of one or more shapes (moving for
the trajectory, stationary for the
distance). When you get to the red
zone, use the bumper representation to
stop accurately.

IMPORTANT Do not place objects on a
partly closed window: it could damage
the window.
Press functions
Depending on the versions, this mode
is an additional function to the electric
window described earlier. It concerns
only the driver's window. Briefly press
down or lift up switch 1 fig. 107: the
window either lowers or raises
completely. Any further action on the
switch stops the window movement.NOTE If the window encounters any
resistance during closing (for example a
tree branch, etc.) it stops and lowers a
few centimetres again.
Irregular operation
If the window closing fails to function,
the system moves to no pressure
mode: pull the concerned switch up as
much as needed until the window
closes completely (the window goes
back up gradually); then keep the
switch pulled up (always on the closing
side) for a second, then lower it and
raise it back up completely to reinstate
the system.
If necessary, contact a Fiat Dealership.
Rear sliding windows:
56)
Use the handle 4 fig. 108 and run the
window to the desired stop.
WARNING
54)Incorrect use of the electric windows
may be dangerous. Before and during
operation, always check that nobody is
exposed to the risk of being injured either
directly by the moving window or through
objects getting caught or hit by it. When
leaving the vehicle (equipped with
mechanical key with remote control),
always remove the key from the ignition
device to prevent accidental operation of
the electric windows from being a hazard
for those still on board.
55)When you close the windows, check
that no part of a body (arm, hand, etc.) is
sticking out from the vehicle. Danger of
serious injury.
56)Before manoeuvring it, make sure no
occupant is sticking out of a window or an
open door.
