lane assist FIAT DUCATO 2018 Owner handbook (in English)

What it means What to do
amberDRIVING ADVISOR
The two warning lights on indicate that the system has
started recognising the operating conditions.
When the system recognises the operating conditions,
it becomes active, i.e. it can assist the driver with
visual and acoustic warnings. Therefore, the warning
lights switch off.
IMPORTANT If the operating conditions are no longer
present, the system is engaged but inactive, and
therefore the two warning lights on the panel switch
on.
When the system is active, if the vehicle gets close to
one of the side limit lines or one of the two
demarcation lines of the lane, the driver is warned with
an acoustic signal along with the direction warning
light (right or left) on the panel lighting up.
The system failure is indicated by the two direction
warning lights
andlighting on the display, along
with an acoustic signal and dedicated message.

DRIVING ADVISOR
(lane crossing warning)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
78) 79) 80)
The Driving Advisor is a warning system
that notifies the driver if he/she crosses
the lane because he/she has been
distracted.
A video sensor, fitted on the windscreen
near the interior rear view mirror,
detects the lane demarcation lines and
the position of the vehicle in relation
to them.
IMPORTANT On cars with Driving
Advisor, it is advisable to contact a Fiat
Dealership should the windscreen
need to be replaced. If the repair is
carried out at a specialist window
replacement centre, it is still necessary
to go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
camera calibrated.
OPERATION
The system is always active when the
vehicle is started. It can be deactivated
or re-activated by pressing the button
A fig. 104 on the dashboard (see
following description).
The LED on the button switches on to
confirm that the system has been
activated and a dedicated message
appears on the display.When the system is activated, the LED
on the dedicated button is off. If the
user deactivates the system, the LED
on the button switches on constantly
and a dedicated message appears
on the display to confirm that the
system has been switched off.
The system is enabled each time the
vehicle key is cycled and starts
recognition of the operating conditions
(condition signalled to the driver when
the 2 direction warning lights
and
on the instrument panel turn on).
When the system recognises the
operating conditions, it becomes active,
i.e. it can assist the driver with visual
and acoustic warnings. Therefore, the
two direction warning lights
and
on the instrument panel turn off to
prevent excessively frequent warnings
while driving in towns or on winding
roads at low speeds.IMPORTANT If the operating conditions
are no longer present, the system
remains activated but inactive.
Therefore, the driver is warned by the 2
direction warning lights
andon
the instrument panel turning on
continuously.

conditions are met:
front driving direction (reverse not
engaged);

error;
calibration in progress;
vehicle speed between 60 km/h and
the max. vehicle speed;
presence of lane demarcation lines
not deteriorated and visible on both

WARNING
78)If the camera loses its position due to
a load variation, the system may not work
temporarily to allow the camera to perform
an auto-calibration.
79)The Driving Advisor is not an automatic
driving system and does not replace the
driver in controlling the trajectory of the
vehicle. The driver is personally responsible
for maintaining sufficient attention for the
traffic and road conditions and for
controlling the vehicle's trajectory safely.
80)In the case of indistinct, overlapping or
missing lane demarcation lines, the system
may not assist the driver: in this case the
Driving Advisor will be inactive.
