2018 FIAT FIORINO stop start

The parking sensors work properly
with the swing doors closed. If they are
open, they can cause the system to
send false signals: always close the rear
doors.
Also, do not apply stickers to the
sensors.
The following conditions may influence
the performance of the parking
assistance system:
Reduced sensor sensitivity and a
reduction in the parking assistance
system performance could be due to
the presence on the surface of the
sensor of: ice, snow, mud, thick paint.
The sensor may detect a non-
existent obstacle (echo noise) due to
mechanical noises, for example when
washing the vehicle, in case of rain,
strong wind, hail.
The warnings sent by the sensor
can also be altered by the presence of
ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brakes of trucks or pneumatic drills)
near the car.
Detection of obstacles in the upper
part of the vehicle (particularly in the
case of vans or chassis cabs) may not
be guaranteed because the system
detects obstacles that could strike the
lower part of the vehicle.
WARNING
99)Parking manoeuvres, however, are
always the driver’s responsibility. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. Parking sensors are designed
to assist drivers; however, you must always
concentrate fully during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even if carried out
at low speeds.
WARNING
31)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 dry, 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.
START&STOP
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
101) 102) 103) 104)
IN BRIEF
The Start&Stop device automatically
stops the engine each time the
vehicle is stationary and all the
conditions for automatic switch-off
have been met, and starts it again
when the driver wants to move off.
This improves the efficiency of the
vehicle by reducing fuel consumption,
the emission of harmful gases and
noise pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
Versions with manual transmission
With the vehicle stationary, the engine
stops with the gearbox in neutral and
the clutch pedal released.
100
STARTING AND DRIVING

Versions with Comfort-matic
transmission
With the vehicle stationary and the
brake pedal pressed, the engine stops
if the gear lever is in position other
thanR. In the event of stops uphill,
engine switching off is disabled to make
the "Hill Holder" function available
(works only with the engine running).
The warning light on the instrument
panel switches on to signal that the
engine has stopped.
Restarting the engine
Versions with manual transmission
Depress the clutch pedal to restart
the engine.
Versions with Comfort-matic
transmission
Releasing the brake pedal the engine
restarts automatically; the icon switches
off on the display. If the engine is
restarted with the “Hill Holder” function
off, move the lever towards (+), (-)or
Rand the engine restarts.MANUAL ACTIVATION
AND DEACTIVATION
The device can be turned on/off by
means of the button shown in fig. 112
on the dashboard. When the function is
not active, the button LED is on. In
addition, on some versions, additional
information concerning the deactivation
or activation of the Start&Stop system
is given through a message on the
display.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through
the Start&Stop system, if the driver
unfastens his/her seat belt and opens
the driver's door or the passenger door,
the engine can be restarted only by
using the key. The driver is notified of
this condition by a buzzer, through the
instrument panel warning light fig.
113 flashing and, where provided, by a
message in the display.VEHICLE INACTIVITY
In the event of vehicle inactivity, special
attention must be paid to the
disconnection of the battery power
supply. Proceed as follows: detach the
