2018 FIAT DUCATO BASE CAMPER driver mirror

USE OF THE OWNER HANDBOOK
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Each time direction instructions (left/right or forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are given, these must be intended as
regarding an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be specified as appropriate in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your vehicle. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles with steering wheel on the right side, the position
or construction of some controls is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedicated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A few pages further there is a key
for getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is in any case a textual indication of the
current chapter at the side of each even page.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will find a series ofWARNINGSto prevent procedures that could damage your
vehicle.
There are alsoPRECAUTIONSthat must be carefully followed to prevent incorrect use of the components of the vehicle,
which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore allWARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSmust always be carefully followed.
WARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSare recalled in the text with the following symbols:
personal safety;
vehicle integrity;
environmental protection.
NOTE These symbols, when necessary, are indicated besides the title or at the end of the line and are followed by a number.
That number recalls the corresponding warning at the end of the relevant section.

WARNING
29)As the driver's exterior mirror is curved,
it may slightly alter the perception of
distance of the reflected image. Further,
the reflective surface of the lower part
of the exterior mirrors is parabolic to
increase the field of view. The reflected
image size is thus reduced and gives the
impression that the reflected item is further
away than it actually is.
30)When driving the mirrors should always
remain in position 1.

DRIVING ADVISOR
(lane crossing warning)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
78) 79) 80)
The Driving Advisor is a warning system
that notifies the driver if he/she crosses
the lane because he/she has been
distracted.
A video sensor, fitted on the windscreen
near the interior rear view mirror,
detects the lane demarcation lines and
the position of the vehicle in relation
to them.
IMPORTANT On cars with Driving
Advisor, it is advisable to contact a Fiat
Dealership should the windscreen
need to be replaced. If the repair is
carried out at a specialist window
replacement centre, it is still necessary
to go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
camera calibrated.
OPERATION
The system is always active when the
vehicle is started. It can be deactivated
or re-activated by pressing the button
A fig. 104 on the dashboard (see
following description).
The LED on the button switches on to
confirm that the system has been
activated and a dedicated message
appears on the display.When the system is activated, the LED
on the dedicated button is off. If the
user deactivates the system, the LED
on the button switches on constantly
and a dedicated message appears
on the display to confirm that the
system has been switched off.
The system is enabled each time the
vehicle key is cycled and starts
recognition of the operating conditions
(condition signalled to the driver when
the 2 direction warning lights
and
on the instrument panel turn on).
When the system recognises the
operating conditions, it becomes active,
i.e. it can assist the driver with visual
and acoustic warnings. Therefore, the
two direction warning lights
and
on the instrument panel turn off to
prevent excessively frequent warnings
while driving in towns or on winding
roads at low speeds.IMPORTANT If the operating conditions
are no longer present, the system
remains activated but inactive.
Therefore, the driver is warned by the 2
direction warning lights
andon
the instrument panel turning on
continuously.
OPERATING CONDITIONS
FOR ACTIVATION
Once switched on, the system
becomes active only if the following
conditions are met:
front driving direction (reverse not
engaged);
the system does not detect any
error;
calibration in progress;
vehicle speed between 60 km/h and
the max. vehicle speed;
presence of lane demarcation lines
not deteriorated and visible on both
sides;
suitable visibility conditions;
straight line or wide radius bends;
sufficient field of vision condition
(safety distance from vehicle in front);
direction indicators not activated
in the lane exiting direction (e.g. right
lane exiting direction, right direction
indicator activated);

a load variation, the system may not work
temporarily to allow the camera to perform
an auto-calibration.
126)The system only detects the preset
traffic signs. If the minimum visibility
conditions and distance from the sign are
met it can detect all traffic signs.
127)The system is a driving assistance
system but it does not relieve the driver of
the responsibility of driving with due
attention and diligence in compliance with
the laws in force.
128)When the system is active, the driver

windscreen directly surrounding the sensor.
32)If the vehicle is equipped with a
non-genuine suspension kit, the system
may not work correctly.
33)Always use genuine spare parts when
replacing the bulbs of the headlights. Other
