2019 FIAT 500X stop start

FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the interruption of the fuel supply
with the engine consequently switching
off;
the automatic unlocking of the doors;
turning on the lights inside the car;
deactivation of climate control
system ventilation;
switching on of the hazard warning
lights (to deactivate the lights press the
button on the dashboard).
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a message
shown on the display. In the same way,
a dedicated message on the display
warns the driver if system operation is
compromised.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the vehicle
for fuel leaks, for instance in the engine
compartment, under the vehicle or near
the tank area. After a collision, bring the
ignition device to STOP to prevent the
battery from running down.FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM

Rear
Proceed as follows:
working in the point shown by the
arrow, release the cap A
(fig. 166orfig. 167 depending on
versions);
take tow ring B and screw it fully
onto the rear threaded pin
WARNING
163)For versions with key without remote
control, before towing, turn the ignition key
to MAR and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is removed
and the wheels cannot be steered. Also
check that the gearbox is in neutral (on
versions equipped with automatic
transmission, check that the gear lever is in
N position). For versions with electronic
key, move the ignition device to MAR and
then to STOP, without opening the door.164)The brake servo and the
electromechanical power steering will not
work while the vehicle is being towed. You
will therefore need to apply more force on
the brake pedal and steering wheel. Do not
use flexible ropes when towing, and avoid
jerky movements. While towing, make sure
that the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing
the car, you must comply with all specific
traffic regulations and adopt an appropriate
driving behaviour. Do not start the engine
while towing the vehicle. Before tightening
the ring, clean the threaded housing
thoroughly. Make sure that the ring is fully
screwed into the housing before towing the
car.
165)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for short
distances using an appropriate device in
accordance with the highway code (a rigid
bar), to move the vehicle on the road in
readiness for towing or transport via a
breakdown vehicle. Tow hooks MUST NOT
be used to tow vehicles off the road or
where there are obstacles and/or for
towing operations using cables or other
non-rigid devices. In compliance with the
above conditions, towing must take place
with the two vehicles (one towing, the other
towed) aligned as much as possible along
the same centre line.

BATTERY
RECHARGING
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT The battery recharging
procedure is given as information only.
To carry out this operation contact a
Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT After setting the ignition
device to STOP and having closed the
driver side door, wait at least one
minute before disconnecting the
electrical supply from the battery. When
reconnecting the electrical supply to the
battery, make sure that the ignition
device is in the STOP position and the
driver side door is closed.
IMPORTANT Charging should be slow
at a low ampere rating for
approximately 24 hours. Charging for a
longer time may damage the battery.
IMPORTANT The cables of the
electrical system must be correctly
reconnected to the battery, i.e. the
positive cable (+) to the positive
terminal and the negative cable (–) to
the negative terminal. The battery
terminals are marked with the positive
(+) and negative (–) symbols, and are
shown on the battery cover. The battery
terminals must also be corrosion-freeand firmly secured to the terminals. If a
"quick-type" battery charger is used
with the battery fitted on the vehicle,
before connecting it disconnect both
cables of the battery itself. Do not use a
"quick-type" battery charger to provide
the starting voltage.
VERSIONS WITHOUT
START&STOP SYSTEM
To recharge, proceed as follows:
disconnect the terminal from the
negative battery pole;
connect the charger cables to the
battery terminals, observing the polarity;
turn on the charger;
when it is recharged, turn the
charger off before disconnecting it from
the battery;
reconnect the negative battery
terminal.
VERSIONS WITH
START&STOP SYSTEM
To recharge, proceed as follows:
disconnect the connector A
fig. 176 (pressing the button B) from the
sensor C monitoring the battery
conditions, on the negative pole (–) D of
the battery;

Driving style is evaluated by means of
four indices which monitor the following
parameters:
Acceleration
Deceleration
Transmission
Speed
Display of the eco:Drive™
Press theeco:Drive™button to
interact with the function. A screen will
be displayed showing the 4 indices
described above.
These indices are grey until the system
has enough data to evaluate the driving
style. Once sufficient data are available,
the indices will have 5 colours
depending on the evaluation: dark
green (very good), light green, yellow,
orange and red (very bad).
In the event of extended inactivity the
display will show the average of the
indices up to that moment (“Average
index”) then the indices will be coloured
again in real time as soon as the car is
restarted.
Recording and transferring trip data
The trip data can be stored in the
system memory and transferred
through a properly configured USB
memory stick or by theUconnect™LIVE App. This allows you
to display the history of the collected
data, showing the complete analysis of
the trip data and of your driving style.
For further information visit the
www.driveuconnect.eu website
IMPORTANT Do not remove the USB
memory stick nor unpair the
smartphone and theUconnect™LIVE
App before the system has
downloaded the data, since these
could be lost. During the transfer of
data to the devices,Uconnect™
messages may appear on the display
to guide the user correctly through the
operation; follow these instructions.
These messages are only displayed
with the ignition device at STOP and
when a delay in theUconnect™
system switching off is set. The data
are automatically transferred to the
devices when the engine is switched
off. Transferred data will be deleted
from the system memory in this
manner. You can choose to store the
trip data or not, by pressing the
"Settings" button and by setting the
storage activation and the transfer
mode (USB or Cloud), as required.
When the USB memory stick is full, the
dedicated messages are shown on the
Uconnect™system display.
When theeco:Drive™data have notbeen transferred to the USB key for a
while, theUconnect™system internal
memory could become saturated: in
this case, follow the recommendations
provided by the messages on the
display.
my:Car
my:Carallows you to keep the
condition of your car always under
control. Themy:Carapplication is
capable of detecting malfunctioning in
real time and lets the driver know about
the expiry of maintenance coupons, To
interact with the application, press "
my:Car" button: a screen will appear
on the display showing the "care:Index"
section which contains detailed
information on car status. Press the
"Active warnings" button to show the
details of any faults on the car which
caused a warning light to switch on.
The car status can be seen both on
www.driveuconnect.eu or through the
Uconnect™LIVEApp.
