ECU FIAT DUCATO 2015 3.G User Guide

151) No tools other than the crank
provided should be used with
the spare wheel lifting device; it
should be operated by hand only.
152) On versions equipped with
self-levelling air suspension, never
introduce the head or hands in
the wheel arch: the vehicle could
raise or lower automatically
depending on possible load or
temperature changes.
153) The device should only be
operated by hand, without using
any type of tool other than the
crank provided, like pneumatic or
electrical screwers.
154) The moving components of the
jack (screw and joints) can also
cause injuries: do not touch them.
If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.155) At the end of the operation of
raising/locking the spare wheel,
after having checked the correct
positioning of the wheel under the
platform (yellow notch inside the
window on the device), the
spanner must be extracted, taking
care not to turn it in the wrong
direction (as in fig. 190) to
facilitate the extraction of the
spanner itself, to prevent the
attachment device from being
released and the wheel assembly
not being securely retained.
156) Each time the spare wheel is
moved, check that it is correctly
positioned in its housing under
the platform. If it is not correctly
positioned, this could adversely
affect safety.
157) The spare wheel lifting device
is equipped with a clutch safety
system for its own protection; this
could activated if an excessive
load is applied on the
maneuvering screw.FIX&GO

foreign body (screws or nails)
from the tyre.
161) Do not use the compressor for
more than 20 consecutive
minutes. Risk of overheating.
Tyres repaired with the quick tyre

glycol. It contains latex that might
cause allergic reactions. It is
harmful if swallowed. It is irritant

BRAKE FLUID
191) 192)
50)
Undo cap E fig. 241 - fig. 242 - fig. 243
- fig. 244 and check that the liquid in
the reservoir is at the maximum level.
The fluid level in the reservoir must not
exceed the MAX mark.
Use the brake fluid shown in the "Fluids
and lubricants" table (see "Technical
Specifications").
NOTE Carefully clean the cap of the
reservoir and the surrounding surface.
Take great care to ensure that
impurities do not enter the reservoir
when the plug is opened.
For topping-up, always use a funnel
with integrated filter with mesh equal to
or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs
moisture. For this reason, if the vehicle
is mainly used in areas with a high
degree of atmospheric humidity, the
fluid should be replaced at more
frequent intervals than specified in the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan”.IMPORTANT
47) When topping up, take care not
to mix up the various types of
fluids: they are not compatible
with each other and could
seriously damage the car.
48) The used engine oil and the filter
that has been replaced contain
substances that are harmful to
the environment. To change the
oil and filters, we advise you to
contact a Fiat Dealership.
49) PARAFLU
UPantifreeze is used in
the engine cooling system. Use
fluid of the same type as that
contained in the cooling system
for any top-ups. PARAFLU
UP
cannot be mixed with any other
type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine and contact a
Fiat Dealership.
50) Avoid allowing brake fluid, which
is extremely corrosive, to come
into contact with painted areas.
Should it happen, wash
immediately with water.51) Do not press the power steering
end of travel lock for longer than 8
consecutive seconds with the
engine running because it will
cause noise and risk damaging
the system.
WARNING
185) Never smoke when performing
operations in the engine
compartment. Flammable gases
and fumes may be present and
risk igniting.
186) Be very careful when working in
the engine compartment when
the engine is hot: you may get
burned. Remember that the fan
may start up if the engine is hot:
this could injure you. Scarves, ties
and other loose clothing might
be pulled by moving parts.
187) The cooling system is
pressurised. If necessary, only
replace the plug with another
original one or the operation of
the system may be adversely
affected. Do not remove the
reservoir plug when the engine is
hot: risk of burns.
