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.

SELF-STANDING SUPPLEMENTARY
HEATER (where provided)
The vehicle can be equipped, upon re-
quest, with two different self-standing
heaters:one is totally automatic
whereas the other is programmable.
AUTOMATIC VERSION
The supplementary heater is totally in-
dependent from the engine.
This heater is switched on automat-
ically (if required) when turning the ig-
nition key to MAR. LOOKING AFTER THE
SYSTEM
During the winter, the climate con-
trol system must be turned on at least
once a month for about ten minutes.
Before summer, have the system
checked at a Fiat Dealership.PROGRAMMABLE VERSION
The supplementary heater is totally
independent from the engine and can
be used to:
– heat the passenger compartment
when the engine is off;
– defrost the windows;
– heat the engine coolant and con-
sequently the engine before starting.
The system consists of:
– a diesel burner to heat coolant with
exhaust fume muffler;
– a metering pump connected to the
vehicle fuel pipes to feed the burner;
– a heat exchanger connected to the
engine cooling system pipes; The system is filled with
R134a refrigerant which
will not pollute the envi-
ronment in the event of leakage.
Under no circumstances should
R12 fluid be used as it is incom-
patible with the system compo-
nents and contains CFC.
The heater burns fuel in the
same way as the engine,
though, of course, to a lesser degree
and therefore to avoid intoxication
and suffocation, never use the sup-
plementary heater in closed areas,
garages or workshops not equipped
with specific exhaust evacuation
devices even for short periods of
time.

– a control unit connected to the
heater/ventilation unit for automatic
operation;
– an electronic control unit to check
and adjusted the integrated heater
burner;
– a digital timer A-fig. 85to start the
heater manually or to program staring
time.In cold weather, the supplementary
heater automatically warms and cir-
culates constant temperature fluid in
the engine cooling system for the time
required to ensure optimal engine ig-
nition and cab temperature conditions.
The heater can be started automat-
ically (programmed by means of the
digital timer) or manually by pressing
the “heat now” button on the timer.
When the heater is turned on (au-
tomatically or manually), the electronic
control unit operates the fluid circu-
lation pump and safely ignites the burn-
er.The electronic control unit also con-
trols the circulation pump delivery in
order to reduce initial heating time.
When the fluid reaches a temperature
of 30°C, the control unit operates the
passenger compartment ventilation
fan.
When the fluid temperature reaches
72°C, the electronic control unit re-
duces the burner power and stops op-
eration when it reaches 76.5°C. The
timer, circulation pump and heater fan
are kept running. When the fluid tem-
perature drops under 71°C the con-
trol unit automatically turns the burn-
er back on.

REARVIEW
CAMERA
Vehicles equipped with CONNECT
NAV+ can be fitted with an optional
rearview camera. This camerafig. 98,
set on roof rear cross member dis-
plays on the CONNECT NAV+ mon-
itor the images of the rear part of the
vehicle, thus supporting the driver
during parking or reverse manoeuvres.
When the reverse gear is engaged, the
camera is automatically activated. In
the same way, the camera is deacti-
vated when disengaging the reverse
gear.
PARKING SENSORS
The parking system fig. 99detects
and informs the driver about the pres-
ence of obstacles in the rear part of
the vehicle.
It is a valid support to identify fences,
walls, posts, vases with plants and the
like or children playing behind the ve-
hicle.

When tilted, the box cover becomes
a writing/reading desk with a clip to
hold sheets/papers, similar to that
shown in fig. 112.
Refrigerator version (food box)
In the refrigerator version, the box
has an internal space of about 12 litres
capacity that can contain 2 one and a
half litre bottles. In this version the
box is insulated and it is fitted with an
electric device to warm up or cool the
box interior as required.
This box can be used as food con-
tainer. Food shall be suitably packed
to avoid direct contact with the inner
walls of the box.
When used for cooling, a tempera-
ture difference of approx. 18 °C can
be achieved between the temperature
inside the box and that of the passen-
ger compartment after a certain time
of operation (with insulated cover and
plug closed). The lowest possible tem-
perature that can be reached in any
case is not lower than 8 -10 °C.To prevent the risk of running the bat-
tery down, the system is connected via
the ignition key; as a result the box will
only work when the engine is running.
You should remove perishables from
the box if you leave the vehicle parked
for longer than two hours.
For proper operation it is necessary
that ventilation grids (outside the box
and on one of the inside walls) should
not be clogged.
Turn the switch to:
1= to warm (red led on);
2= to cool (green led on).

in the cab between the driver’s seat
and the passenger’s single seat, avail-
able in two models: object box or
food box fig. 113.
Object holder version
In the object holder version, the box
has an internal space of about 12 litres
capacity suitable to contain a medium
size portable PC. On the outside it has
a document holder pocket, a bottle
holder (for one and a half litre plastic
bottles) and a can or glass holder slot.

IMPORTANTWith the engine off
and the ignition key at MAR, pro-
longed use (e.g.: for more than an
hour) of accessories with high current
intake could deploy the battery, even
preventing the engine from starting. CURRENT SOCKET
The vehicle is fitted with current
socket A-fig. 114on the dashboard
(beside the central oddment tray) and
current socket B(only on vans) on
rear door right post.
Panorama versions have the current
socket located near the door post op-
posite to the side sliding door (C-
fig. 115).
Current sockets are both powered
when the ignition key is at MAR.
fig. 116
F0D0248m
Do not use the sockets
for accessories with pow-
er over the max. specified
one.
fig. 114
F0D0036m
Correct functioning is only ensured
if the accessories are fitted with a ho-
mologated plug, as installed on all Lin-
eaccessori Fiat components.
SPECIAL VEHICLE SETUP
SOCKET
Under the foot board there is a spe-
cial connector (fig. 116) that can be
used by those companies that modify
vehicles to connect an additional bat-
tery for specific equipment such as am-
bulances, mobile offices, etc. Do not use current sockets for ac-
cessories with power over 180 W
(max. intake 15 A).

The action of the ASR is particularly
helpful in the following circumstances:
– slipping of the inner wheel due to
the effect of dynamic load changes or
excessive acceleration.
– too much power transmitted to
the wheels also in relation to the con-
ditions of the road surface.
– acceleration on slippery, snowy or
frozen surfaces.
– in the case of loss of grip on a wet
surface (aquaplaning). Furthermore, the system is equipped
with a connector for interfacing with
specific tools used to read the error
codes stored in the control unit mem-
ory along with a set of diagnostic and
engine specific parameters.ASR SYSTEM
(Antislip Regulation)
The ASR system controls the vehicle
drive and cuts in automatically every
time one or both driving wheels slip.
In slipping conditions, two different
control systems are activated:
– if the slipping involves both the dri-
ving wheels, the ASR function inter-
venes reducing the power transmitted
by the engine;
– if slipping involves only one driving
wheel, the ASR system cuts in auto-
matically braking the wheel that is slip-
ping.
IMPORTANTAfter eliminating the
problem, your Fiat Dealershipwill
run a bench test to fully check the sys-
tem. In some cases, a long road test
may be required.Contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship as soon as possible if
the Uwarning light ei-
ther does not come on when the
key is turned to MAR or comes
on, with fixed or flashing light,
when travelling. Warning light U
operation can be checked by
means of special equipment by
traffic agents. Always comply
with the road traffic regulations
in force in the Country where you
are travelling.
The performance of the
system, in terms of active
safety should not induce the driver
to take pointless and unnecessary
risks. The style of driving must in
any case always be adapted to the
conditions of the road surface, vis-
ibility and traffic. Road safety is al-
ways the driver’s responsibility.
