park assist FIAT 500L LIVING 2017 2.G Owners Manual

IMPORTANT Two side gas shock
absorbers are provided to assist in
opening the bonnet. Do not tamper
with these shock absorbers and
accompany the bonnet when raising.
IMPORTANT Before raising the bonnet,
make sure that the arms of the wipers
are not raised from the windscreen and
that the wiper is not operational.
CLOSING
32)
Lower the bonnet to approximately 20
centimetres from the engine
compartment then let it drop. Make
sure that the bonnet is completely
closed and not only fastened by the
locking device by trying to open it.
If it is not perfectly closed, do not try to
press the bonnet lid down but open it
and repeat the procedure.
WARNING
32)For safety reasons, the bonnet must
always be properly closed while driving.
Therefore, make sure that the bonnet
is properly closed and that the lock
is engaged. If you discover during travel
that the lock is not fully engaged, stop
immediately and close the bonnet in the
correct manner.
DUALDRIVE
ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING
This only operates with the key turned
to MAR and the engine started. The
electric steering allows the force
required at the steering wheel to be
adjusted to suit driving conditions.
IMPORTANT When turning the ignition
key quickly, full power steering
functionality can be achieved after a
few seconds.
IMPORTANT During parking
manoeuvres requiring a lot of steering,
the steering may become harder; this is
normal and is due to the intervention
of the system to protect the electric
steering motor from overheating. No
repair intervention is needed in this
case. When the vehicle is used again,
the power steering will work normally
again.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
The following plate is applied inside the
engine compartment fig. 45.

Warning light What it means
GENERIC FAILURE INDICATION
The warning light switches on in the following circumstances. In these cases contact a Fiat Dealership to
have the fault fixed as soon as possible:
❒Limit speed exceeded: on some versions, when the limit speed is exceeded, a message and a symbol
are displayed, along with a buzzer;
❒Fuel cut-off system intervention/failure
❒External light failure: the warning light switches on when a failure is detected in one of the following lights:
daytime running lights (DRL) (where provided)/side lights/direction indicator/rear fog light/reversing light/
number plate light/brake lights (for versions with multifunction display only). The fault relating to these lights
could be: one or more blown bulbs, a blown protection fuse or a break in the electrical connection;
❒DST (Dynamic Steering Torque or steering corrector) system failure
❒Water in diesel fuel filter
❒Stop/Start system failure
❒Methane level sensor failure (or LPG level)
❒Temporary or permanent City Brake Control - "Collision Mitigation" system failure
❒Rain sensor failure
❒Assisted parking failure
❒Dusk sensor failure
❒Engine oil pressure sensor failure(on versions with reconfigurable multifunction display the failure is
indicated by the switching on of the icon in the display)
❒Warning light failure
On some versions, the warning light switches on along with the display of a message and a symbol.

54)The ESC system cannot alter the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase grip which depends on the
condition of the road.
55)The ESC system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
56)The capability of the ESC system must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise the safety of the driver, the
other occupants of the car or any other
road user.
57)For the correct operation of the ESC
and ASR systems it is extremely important
that the tyres are the same brand and
the same type on all the wheels, in perfect
condition and, above all, the
recommended type and size.
58)The performance of the ESC and ASR
systems must not encourage the driver
to take unnecessary risks. Your driving style
must always be suited to the road
conditions, visibility and traffic. The driver
is, in any case, responsible for safe driving.
59)The ESC functions even when the
space-saver wheel is being used. Always
remember that the space-saver wheel,
being smaller than the original wheel,
provides less grip.
60)The Hill Holder system is not a parking
brake; therefore, never leave the car
without having engaged the handbrake,
turned the engine off and engaged first
gear, so that the vehicle is parked in safe
conditions (for further information read the
"Parking" paragraph in the "Starting and
driving" chapter).61)There may be situations on small
gradients (less than 5%), with car laden, in
which the Hill Holder system may not
activate, causing a slight reversing motion
and increasing the risk of collision with
another vehicle or object. The driver is, in
any case, responsible for safe driving.
62)DST is an aid for driving and does not
relieve the driver of responsibility while
driving the vehicle.
63)The performance of a vehicle with ERM
must never be tested in imprudent or
dangerous ways, with the possibility of
putting the safety of the driver or other
people at risk.DRIVING
ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
The vehicle can be equipped with the
following active safety devices:
❒Traction Plus;
❒City Brake Control - "Collision
Mitigation";
❒iTPMS.
For the operation of the systems, see
the following pages.
TRACTION PLUS SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
The system works as a driving aid,
useful for setting off in poor grip
conditions (snow, ice, mud, etc.), which
allows the drive force to be distributed
optimally on the front axle.
The system acts by braking the wheels
with poor grip (or those slipping more
than the others), transferring the drive
force to those which have greater
grip on the ground.
The activation of the Traction Plus
system generates the differential locking
effect on the front axle through the
braking system, to optimise traction on
irregular terrain.
When the engine is started the system
is deactivated.
