2019 FIAT 500X park assist

The LED on the button is off when the
system is switched on by the driver. The
LED is on if the system is deactivated
by the driver, faulty or temporarily
deactivated.
If the button is pressed with a system
failure, the LED flashes for about
5 seconds, then it stays on constantly.
When the ignition device is set to MAR
the Park Assist system keeps the last
status when the engine was switched
off (activated or deactivated) in its
memory.
After having been switched off, the Park
Assist system will stay in this condition
until the following engagement, even if
the ignition device is switched from
MAR to STOP and then again to MAR.Using wheels with different sizes from
those mounted at the time the car was
purchased could affect the system, not
allowing it to function properly.
System on activation/deactivation
(versions with 4 sensors)
Activation
The system is automatically activated
when reverse is engaged.
Deactivation
The system is automatically deactivated
whenever a gear other than reverse is
engaged.
System on activation/deactivation
(versions with 8 sensors)
Activation
The system, when it is on, is
automatically activated in the following
conditions:
when a forward gear is selected
(versions with manual transmission) or
D (Drive) position (versions with
automatic transmission/dual clutch
automatic transmission);
or
when reverse gear is selected
(versions with manual transmission) or
R position (versions with automatic
transmission/dual clutch automatic
transmission);
or
when the manual gear stick is in
neutral or the automatic transmission/
dual clutch automatic transmission lever
is in N (neutral) position and the car is
moving. The system stays on in case of
movement (either forwards or
backwards).
Deactivation
The system is automatically deactivated
in the following conditions:
if a gear other than reverse is
engaged, the rear sensors are
deactivated, while the front sensors
remain active until 15 km/h are
exceeded;
or
at speeds higher than 11 km/h with
reverse engaged (in this case, the LED
on the button on the instrument panel
switches on);
or
when with the car standing the
manual gear stick is in neutral or the
automatic transmission/dual clutch
automatic transmission lever is in P
(park) position.
Operation with a trailer
Versions with 4 sensors
The operation of the sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer electric cable plug is inserted in

the tow hook socket of the car. In this
case, the LED on the button on the
dashboard fig. 105 is on. The sensors
are automatically reactivated when the
trailer's cable plug is removed.
Versions with 8 sensors
The operation of the rear sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electric cable plug is inserted in
the tow hook socket of the car, while
the front sensors stay active and can
provide acoustic and visual warnings. In
this case, the LED on the button on the
dashboard fig. 105 stay off. The rear
sensors are automatically reactivated
when the trailer's cable plug is
removed.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Some conditions may influence the
performance of the parking system:
reduced sensor sensitivity and a
reduction in the parking assistance
system performance could be due to
the presence of: ice, snow, mud, thick
paint, on the surface of the sensor;
the sensor may detect a non-existent
obstacle ("echo interference") due to
mechanical interference, for example
when washing the vehicle, in rain
(strong wind), hail;
the signals sent by the sensor can
also be altered by the presence of
ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brake systems of trucks or pneumatic
drills) near the vehicle;
parking assistance system
performance can also be influenced by
the position of the sensors, for example
due to a change in the ride setting
(caused by wear to the shock
absorbers, suspension), or by changing
tyres, overloading the car or fitting
specific trims that require the car to be
lowered;
the presence of a tow hook without
trailer, which may interfere with the
correct operation of the rear parking
sensors. Before using the Park Assist
system, it is recommended to remove
the tow hook ball assembly and the
relevant attachment from the vehicle
when the latter is not used for towing
operations. Failure to comply with this
prescription may cause personal injuries
or damage to vehicles or obstacles
since, when the continuous acoustic
warning is emitted, the tow hook ball is
already in a position that is much closer
to the obstacle than the rear bumper. If
you wish to leave the tow hook fitted
without towing a trailer, it is advisable to
contact a Fiat Dealership for the
relevant Park Assist system update
operations because the tow hook couldbe detected as an obstacle by the
central sensors.
the presence of adhesives on the
sensors. Therefore, take care not to
place stickers on the sensors.
WARNING
129)Parking and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,
always the driver’s responsibility. When
performing these operations, always make
sure that there are no other people
(especially children) or animals on the route
you want to take. The parking sensors are
an aid for the driver, but the driver must
never allow their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even
those executed at low speeds.
IMPORTANT
54)The sensors must be clean of mud,
dirt, snow or ice in order for the system to
operate correctly. 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.
137

55)Have interventions on the bumper in
the area of the sensors carried out only by
a Fiat Dealership. Interventions on the
bumper that are not carried out properly
may compromise the operation of the
parking sensors.
56)Only have the bumpers repainted or
any retouches to the paintwork in the area
of the sensors carried out by a Fiat
Dealership. Incorrect paint application
could affect the operation of the parking
sensors.
57)The rear sensors may provide a false
reading, interpreting the tow hook ball
assembly and the respective attachment as
an obstacle in the area behind the car.LANE ASSIST
SYSTEM (lane
crossing warning)
DESCRIPTION
58) 59) 60) 61) 62) 63)
The Lane Assist system makes use of a
camera located on the windscreen to
detect the lane limits and calculate the
position of the car within such limits, in
order to make sure that it remains
inside the lane.
When the one of the lane lines is
detected and the car crosses it without
the awareness of the driver (direction
indicator off), the Lane Assist system
provides a tactile warning by applying
torque to the steering wheel (vibration),
thus advising the driver that he must
take an action to remain in the lane.
IMPORTANT The torque applied to the
steering wheel by the system is
sufficient for the driver to notice it, but
always limited, so that they can easily
override it, and the driver always
maintains control of the car. The driver
can therefore turn the steering wheel as
required at all times.
If the vehicle continues going beyond
the line of the lane without any
intervention from the driver, the
warning light (or the icon on the
display) will be displayed on the
instrument panel to urge the driver to
bring the vehicle back into the limits of
the lane.
IMPORTANT The system monitors the
presence of the driver's hands on the
steering wheel. If they are not detected,
the system emits an acoustic warning
and deactivates until it is reactivated by
pressing the dedicated button (see
description below).
SYSTEM ON/OFF
The Lane Assist system can be
enabled/disabled using button A
fig. 106, located on the left stalk.
Each time the engine is started, the
system keeps the activation status
there was when it was previously
switched off.
