KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

The acceptance by the system of the
requested driving mode is signalled by
the LED, located besides the symbol,
coming on, and by the corresponding
symbol appearing on the instrument
panel display.
When the engine is started, the system
usually maintains the driving mode that
was active before the engine was
stopped. For versions/markets where
provided, on start-up, the system is set
to the "Auto" mode.
"Auto" MODE
Recommended mode for normal
driving, aimed at comfort and safety in
normal grip and driving conditions. On
4x4 versions, this mode also reduces
fuel consumption, since it automatically
disconnects the transmission from the
rear wheels if the road and driving
conditions allow it, in addition to
changing drive torque distribution
between the front and rear axles.
Activation
Starting from the active "Traction/All
Weather" mode, turn the ring nut
anticlockwise, keeping it in this position
for at least half a second, and in any
case until the relevant LED turns on,
and the selected mode is shown on the
display. The LED for the previously set
mode will simultaneously turn off.Upon release, the ring nut will return to
the central position.
Starting from the active "Sport" mode,
turn the ring nut clockwise, keeping it in
this position for at least half a second,
and in any case until the relevant LED
turns on, and the selected mode is
shown on the display. The LED for the
previously set mode will simultaneously
turn off. Upon release, the ring nut will
return to the central position.
"Traction"/"All Weather"
MODE
It is a driving mode for safety in poor
vehicle grip conditions (wet/slippery
road surface, rain, snow). On the
4x4 versions use is also recommended
on unsurfaced roads or off-road.
Activation
Starting from the active "Auto" mode,
turn the ring nut clockwise, keeping it in
this position for at least half a second,
and in any case until the relevant LED
turns on, and the selected mode is
shown on the display. The LED for the
previously set mode will simultaneously
turn off. Upon release, the ring nut will
return to the central position.
Starting from the active "Sport" mode,
turn the ring nut anticlockwise, keeping
it in this position for at least half a
second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selected
mode is shown on the display. The LED
for the previously set mode will
simultaneously turn off. Upon release,
the ring nut will return to the central
position.
"Sport" MODE
It is the mode that emphasises the
pleasure of sport driving; it increases
fuel consumption however. Traction is
optimised on 4x4 versions, allowing the
vehicle road-hold performance to be
improved, even on bends.
Activation
Starting from the active "Auto" mode,
turn the ring nut anticlockwise, keeping
it in this position for at least half a
second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selected
mode is shown on the display. The LED
for the previously set mode will
simultaneously turn off. Upon release,
the ring nut will return to the central
position.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Starting from the active "Traction/All
Weather" mode, turn the ring nut
clockwise, keeping it in this position for
at least half a second, and in any case
until the relevant LED turns on, and the
selected mode is shown on the display.
The LED for the previously set mode will
simultaneously turn off. Upon release,
the ring nut will return to the central
position.
FAULT INDICATIONS
In the case of system and selector
faults, the mode change option will be
automatically disabled. The system will
automatically set itself to "Auto" mode.
In these cases the display will show a
dedicated warning. Go to a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible to have
the system checked.
PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM
SENSORS
132)
65) 66) 67)
The parking sensors, located in the rear
bumper fig. 108, are used to detect the
presence of any obstacles near the rear
part of the vehicle.
The sensors warn the driver about the
presence of possible obstacles with an
intermittent acoustic signal and,
depending on the version, also with
visual indications on the instrument
panel display.Activation
The sensors are automatically activated
when reverse gear is selected. As the
distance from the obstacle behind the
vehicle decreases, the frequency of the
acoustic signal increases.
Acoustic signal
When reverse is engaged and there is
an obstacle behind the vehicle, an
acoustic signal is activated and the
signal varies as the distance of the
obstacle from the bumper varies.
The frequency of the acoustic signal:
increases as the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle decreases;
becomes continuous when the
distance separating the vehicle from the
obstacle is less than about 30 cm;
is constant if the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is
unchanged. If this situation concerns
the side sensors, the signal will stop
after approximately 3 seconds to avoid,
for example, indications in the event of
manoeuvres along a wall.
stops immediately if the distance of
the obstacle increases.
When the system emits the acoustic
signal, the volume of the Uconnect™
system is automatically lowered.
