SYSTEM SELF-TEST
If the beep is followed after one sec-
ond by another beep when the elec-
tronic alarm is switched on, check
whether the doors, the bonnet and
the load compartment are perfectly
closed. Try to switch the alarm on
again. If the situation persists, contact
a Fiat Dealership.WHAT SETS
THE ALARM OFF
The electronic alarm will be set off if:
1) a door, the bonnet or the load
compartment is opened;
2) the battery is disconnected or the
electronic alarm power supply cables
are cut;
3) something moves in the passen-
ger compartment (volumetric surveil-
lance);
4) the key is turned to MAR.
When the alarm is triggered, a siren
will sound for about 26 seconds (for a
maximum of 3 cycles with 5 second
pauses, if the cause of the alarm per-
sists) and the direction indicators will
flash for about 5 minutes (only in the
countries where this is allowed).
Once the alarm situation has been
resolved, the alarm will return to its
normal surveillance function. PROGRAMMING
THE SYSTEM
The electronic alarm will have been
programmed by Fiat Dealership.
Any subsequent programming should
also be carried out by a Fiat Deal-
ership.
If additional remote control is re-
quired for any reasons, go to a Fiat
Dealership, taking all the keys you
own and the CODE card with you.
IMPORTANTThe electronic
alarm operation is prepared according
to the laws of the specific country.
This operation is only to be carried
out by a Fiat Dealershipto avoid
damaging the electronic memory stor-
age system.

For the Combi version, two addi-
tional rear speakers are provided, one
per body side.
The sound system should be installed
in the compartment occupied by the
object tray which can be removed by
releasing the two retaining tabs A-
fig. 145.
The power supply, speaker connec-
tion and aerial cables can be found in
this compartment.

IMPORTANT The cables are se-
cured to the heater cables bundle with
adhesive tape to cut out noise.
For speakers, use the housings at the
ends of the dashboard fig. 146:
A- left-hand speaker housing
B- right-hand speaker housing.
To install: dismantle the press-fitted
dashboard panel and insert the speak-
er in its special recess.

WARNING

104GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
IMPORTANTThe airtight seal of
the cap may lead to a slight increase of
pressure in the tank. A hissing sound
when the cap is removed is therefore
quite normal.
After refuelling, screw the cap until
hearing one or more clicks, turn the
key and then remove it.. close the lid.
IMPORTANTMoreover, before
starting the engine, for the sake of
safety, check whether the refuelling
gun is properly hung onto the fuel
pump.If required, replace the
fuel cap with another gen-
uine cap to avoid affecting
the efficiency of the fuel vapour
recovery system.

PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
Protection of the environment has
been the guiding principle in the design
of the Fiat Ducato right from the start.
The result is the use of materials and
creation of devices that can reduce or
considerably curtail harmful influences
on the environment.
The devices for curtailing petrol en-
gine emissions are:
– a three-way catalytic converter;
– a lambda sensor;
– a fuel evaporation system.
The devices for curtailing diesel en-
gine emissions are:
– an oxidising catalytic converter;
– an exhaust gas recirculation system
(E.G.R.) (for certain versions).
Consequently, the Fiat Ducato is
ready to travel well ahead of the most
stringent international pollution control
standards.
Keep naked flames or light-
ed cigarettes away from
the fuel filler hole as there is a dan-
ger of fire. Do not bend too close to
the hole either so as not to breathe
in harmful vapours.
WARNING

123GETTING THE BEST OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE
– if you are forced to stop your ve-
hicle (breakdown, limited visibility,
etc.) try to stop off the road. Turn on
the hazard lights and, if possible, the
dipped beam headlights. Rhythmically
sound the horn if you release anoth-
er vehicle is coming.
DRIVING IN THE
MOUNTAINS
– Check fluid levels (oil, brake fluid,
coolant) and tyre wear before driving
in the mountains;
– when driving downhill use the en-
gine braking effect by engaging a low
gear so as not to overheat the brakes;
– under no circumstances should you
drive downhill with the engine off or
with the gear in neutral, let alone with
the ignition key out;
– drive at moderate speed and avoid
“cutting” corners;
– remember that overtaking while
going uphill is slower and therefore re-
quires more free road. If you are be-
ing overtaken while driving uphill,
make it easier for the other vehicle
to pass.DRIVING ON SNOW
AND ICE
Here are some tips for driving in
these conditions:
– keep your speed down;
– use chains if the roads are covered
with snow;
– do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for long periods of
time: snow could divert exhaust fumes
into the passenger compartment;
– mainly use the braking effect of the
engine and under all circumstances
avoid braking sharply;
– when braking a vehicle not fitted
with ABS, reduce the possibility of the
wheels locking by varying the pressure
you exert on the brake pedal;
– do not accelerate suddenly and
avoid swerving;– in the winter, even apparently dry
roads may have icy patches. Be care-
ful therefore when driving over
stretches that do not get much expo-
sure to the sun or are lined with trees
or rocks where ice might not have
melted;
– keep a good distance from the ve-
hicles in front.
DRIVING WITH ABS
– ABS is a braking system that es-
sentially offers two advantages:
1) It prevents wheel lock and con-
sequent skidding in emergency stops,
particularly when the road does not
offer much grip.
2) it makes it possible to brake and
steer at the same time and direct the
vehicle where you want while braking.
