2018 FIAT FULLBACK air condition

NOTE The values under item 9 are
applicable to unladen vehicles. The
value can also be varied depending on
the tyre size, optional equipment and
suspension conditions.
Operating hints
Have your vehicle serviced prior to
towing a heavy trailer, taking particular
care of the state of engine tune, the
condition of brakes, steering and tyres.
Adjust tyre pressures to those
specifications at trailer towing (refer to
“tyre inflation pressure”). Check the
tyres, wiring and brakes (if fitted) on the
trailer.
Leave plenty of room between the
front of your vehicle and the preceding
vehicle. If the trailer begins to sway or
becomes difficult to handle, gently slow
down or apply the independent trailer
brakes (if fitted) NOT the vehicle brakes.
Stop the vehicle and trailer in a safe
location. One cause of swaying is poor
trailer balance and until this has been
overcome the swaying will recur.
Relocated the load in your trailer and
re-assess the problem.
Be sure that the driving speed does
not exceed 100 km/h for trailer
operation.
It is also recommended that you
obey the local regulations in case
driving speed with a trailer is limited to
less than 100 km/h.
To prevent the clutch from slipping
(vehicle with a M/T only), do not rev the
engine more than is required when
starting off.
To prevent shocks from the overrun
brake, depress the brake pedal lightly at
first and then more strongly.
To make full use of engine braking,
change to a lower gear before
descending a slope.
The body, brakes, clutch, and
chassis will be under additional strain
when towing a trailer.
The heavier weight and higher rolling
and air resistance will increase fuel
consumption.
Additional precautions for vehicles
equipped with an automatic
transmission
It is recommended a lower gear in
sports mode on slopes or at low speed,
taking care to keep the engine speed
below the red zone.
WARNING
89)Danger of Accident! A towing bar
should be fitted according to Fiat
Dealership guidelines.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

FUEL SELECTION
Recommended fuel:Cetane number
(EN590) 51 or higher
42) 43) 45) 46)
NOTE For diesel fuel, due to the
separation of paraffin, the fluidity
decreases considerably as the
temperature falls. Because of this fact
there are two kinds of fuel: “summer”
and “winter”. This must be considered
in winter use. Select either of the two
kinds of fuel in accordance with
ambient temperature.
Above -5 °C: “Summer” diesel
Below -5 °C: “Winter” diesel
When travelling abroad, find out in
advance about the fuels served in local
service stations.
Poor-quality diesel fuel can cause
deposits to form in the injector, resulting
in black smoke and rough idling.
If these problems occur, you are
advised to add a cleaning additive to
the diesel fuel when you refuel the
vehicle. The additive will break up and
remove the deposits, thereby returning
the engine to a normal condition.
Be sure to use a FCA GENUINE
DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER.
Using an unsuitable additive could
make the engine malfunction. For
details, please contact your Fiat
Dealsership.Graphical expression for consumer
information
B7: Diesel fuel containing up to 7%
(V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Esters – Eg. EN
590 compliant diesel.
The diesel engine are compatible with
B7 type diesel (containing 7% fatty acid
methyl esters) conforming to European
standards EN590.
47)
IMPORTANT
42)Diesel-powered vehicles to comply with
the Euro 4 and Euro 5 regulation are
designed to use only diesel fuel that meets
the EN 590 standard. Use of any other type
of diesel fuel would adversely affect the
engine’s performance and durability.
43)Your vehicle is designed to use only
diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio
diesel, methylester, etc.) would adversely
affect the engine’s performance and
durability.
44)For diesel-powered vehicles, if you
continuously use fuel that contains more
than 7 % bio-diesel, the impurities in the
bio-diesel could precipitate. If this occurs,
the properties of the fuel in the fuel tank will
change, which could adversely affect the
engine, fuel filter, and other components,
leading to engine problems. If the engine is
not operating properly, switch to fuel that
contains7%orless biodiesel as soon as
possible and have the vehicle checked at
an authorised Fiat dealership.
45)For diesel engines, only use diesel fuel
for motor vehicles in accordance with EN
590 European specifications. The use of
other products or mixtures may damage
the engine beyond repair and consequently
invalidate the warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally introduce other
types of fuel into the tank, do not start the
engine. Empty the tank. If the engine has
been run for even an extremely limited
amount of time, you must not only drain the
fuel tank, but the rest of the supply circuit
as well.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

If the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is
put in ON while a seat belt is not
fastened, the warning lamp comes on
for approximately 30 seconds to remind
the rear passenger to fasten the seat
belt.
If the vehicle is driven with the seat belt
still unfastened, the warning lamps
come on for approximately another
30 seconds. (This illumination happens
only the first time the vehicle starts
moving with the seat belt still
unfastened.)
The warning lamps go off when the
seat belt is fastened.
NOTE The warning lamp comes on
even if no one is sitting on the rear
seats.
NOTE If a seat belt is unfastened while
the vehicle is being driven, the tone
sounds for approximately 1 second and
the warning lamp comes on for
approximately 30 seconds. At the same
time, the warning lamp for the seat
where the seat belt is not fastened
comes on.
NOTE If the seat belts are initially
fastened but a seat belt is unfastened
while the vehicle is stationary and the
vehicle is then driven with the seat belt
still unfastened, the warning lamp
comes on again for approximately
30 seconds.Adjustable seat belt anchor (front
seats of Club cab and Double cab)
The seat belt anchor height can be
adjusted. To move the anchor, pull the
lock knob (1) and slide the anchor to
the desired position. Release the lock
knob to lock the anchor into position.

Pretensioner system
When the ignition switch or the
operation mode is under the following
conditions, if there is a frontal impact or
a side impact (vehicles equipped with
SRS side airbags and SRS curtain
airbags) severe enough to injure the
driver and/or front passenger, or when
a rollover or overturning of the vehicle is
detected (if so equipped), the
pretensioner system will retract their
respective seat belts instantaneously,
thus maximizing the seat belt’s
effectiveness.
Except for vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system: the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START”
position.
Vehicles equipped with the keyless
operation system: the operation mode
is in ON.
203AA0105192

Only when the ignition switch or the
operation mode is under the following
conditions, the airbags will operate.
Except for vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system: the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START”
position.
Vehicles equipped with the keyless
operation system: the operation mode
is in ON.
When the airbag control unit detects
rollover of the vehicle, curtain airbags
will be deployed (if so equipped).
The airbags deployment produces a
sudden, loud noise, and releases some
smoke and powder, but these
conditions are not injurious, and do not
indicate a fire in the vehicle. People with
respiratory problems may feel some
temporary irritation from chemicals
used to produce the deployment; open
the windows after airbag deployment, if
safe to do so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after
deployment, so there is little danger of
obscured vision.

Driver’s knee airbag system (where
provided)
The driver’s knee airbag is located
under the steering wheel. The driver’s
knee airbag is designed to deploy at the
same time as the driver’s front airbag.
Deployment of front
airbags and driver’s
knee airbag
(where provided)
The front airbags and driver’s knee
airbag ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY
when…
The front airbags and driver’s knee
airbag are designed to deploy when the
vehicle suffers a moderate to severe
frontal impact. The typical condition is
shown in the illustration.1. Head-on collision with a solid wall at
speed of approximately 25 km/h or
higher 2. Moderate to severe frontal
impact within the shaded area between
the arrows
The front airbags and driver’s knee
airbag will deploy if the severity of
impact is above the designed threshold
level, comparable to an approximately
25 km/h collision when impacting
straight into a solid wall that does not
move or deform. If the severity of the
impact is below the above threshold
level, the front airbags and driver’s knee
airbag may not deploy. However, this
threshold speed will be considerably
higher if the vehicle strikes an object
that absorbs the impact by either
deforming or moving (for example,
another stationary vehicle, pole or a
guard rail).
Because frontal collisions can easily
move you out of position, it is important
to always properly wear your seat belts.Your seat belts will help keep you a safe
distance from the steering wheel and
instrument panel during the initial
stages of airbag deployment. The initial
stage of airbag inflation is the most
forceful, and can possibly cause serious
or fatal injuries. Moreover, the seat belts
in your vehicle are your primary means
of protection in a collision. The SRS
airbags are designed to provide
additional protection. Therefore, for your
safety and the safety of all occupants,
be sure to always properly wear your
seat belts.
The front airbags and driver’s knee
airbag MAY NOT DEPLOY when…
With certain types of frontal collisions,
the vehicle’s body structure is designed
to absorb the shock to help protect the
occupants from harm. (The vehicle
body’s front area may deform
significantly as it absorbs the impact.)
Under such circumstances, the front
airbags and driver’s knee airbag may
not deploy irrespective of the
deformation and damage to the vehicle
body.
Examples of some typical conditions
are shown in the illustration.
