EOBD SYSTEM
The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis)
allows continuous diagnosis of emission-related
components on the vehicle.
It also alerts the driver, by turning on instrument
panel warning light
(together with the relevant
message in the display, on some versions), when
these components are no longer in peak condition
(see “Warning lights and messages” section).
The aim of the system is to:
monitor system efficiency;
warn about increased emissions due to a vehicle
malfunction;
to warn of the need to replace deteriorated
components.
The system also has a connector that can be
interfaced with appropriate equipment, which makes
it possible to read the error codes stored in the
control unit, together with a series of specific
parameters for engine operation and diagnosis.
This check can also be carried out by traffic police.
IMPORTANT After resolving the problem, to check
the system completely, Fiat Dealerships are obliged
to run a bench test and, if necessary, road tests
which may call for a long journey.
WARNING
Go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible if warning light
either does
not light up when the key is turned to MAR to if
while travelling the warning lights comes on
either steady or blinking (along with a message
on the display).The operation of warning light
may be checked by the traffic police using
specific devices. Follow the laws in force in
the country where you are driving.

SPEED BLOCK
(for 1.3 MultiJet versions with manual gearbox)
The vehicle is equipped with a function that limits
the speed that can be set, when requested by the
user, to one of 4 preset values: 90, 100, 110 or 130
km/h.
This function must be activated/deactivated through
a Fiat Dealership.
Following the operation, a sticker fig. 103 will be
applied to the windscreen showing the top speed
setting.
WARNING The speedometer could indicate a higher
maximum speed than the effective one, set by the
Dealership, in accordance with the regulations in
force.
PARKING SENSORS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These are located in the rear bumper fig. 104 and
their function is to inform the driver, through an
intermittent beeping noise, about the presence of
obstacles behind the vehicle.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated when reverse
gear is selected.
The buzzer becomes more frequent as the obstacle
behind the vehicle gets closer to the bumper.
WARNING BUZZER
When reverse gear is engaged an intermittent
acoustic signal is automatically activated.
The beeps:

increase as the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle decreases;
become continuous when the distance between
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than 30 cm
and stop immediately if the distance increases;
it remains constant if the distance remains
unchanged; if this situation concerns the side
sensors, the buzzer will stop after about 3
seconds to avoid, for example, warning indications
in the event of manoeuvres along walls.
Detection distances
If several obstacles are detected by the sensors, only
the nearest one is considered.
FAILURE INDICATIONS
Any parking sensor failures will be indicated when
engaging reverse by the warning light
in the
instrument panel together with the message in the
multifunction display (for versions/markets, where
provided) (see the "Warning lights and messages"
chapter).
The sensor must be free of mud, dirt , snow
or ice in order for the system to work. Be
careful not to scratch or damage the
sensors while cleaning them. Avoid using dr y,
rough or hard cloths.The sensors should be
washed using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary.When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure jets or
steam cleaning, clean the sensors very quickly
keeping the jet more than 10 cm away.
OPERATION WITH TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is automatically
deactivated when the plug for the electric cable for
the trailer is inserted in the vehicle tow hook socket.
The sensors are automatically enabled again when
the trailer cable plug is removed.
IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the tow hook
fitted without towing a trailer, it is advisable to
contact a Fiat Dealership for the relevant system
update operations because the tow hook could be
detected as an obstacle by the central sensors.
GENERAL WARNINGS
During parking manoeuvres, pay the utmost
attention to any obstacles that could be located
above or below the sensors.
Sometimes, objects located very near the rear of
the vehicle are not detected and could therefore
damage the vehicle or be damaged themselves.

The signals sent out by the sensors can be altered
by dirt, snow or ice deposited on the sensors or
by ultrasound systems (e.g. truck pneumatic
brakes or pneumatic drills) near the vehicle.
The parking sensors work properly with the swing
doors closed. If they are open, they can cause the
system to send false signals: always close the
rear doors.
Also, do not apply stickers to the sensors.
The following conditions may influence the
performance of the parking assistance system:
Reduced sensor sensitivity and a reduction in the
parking assistance system performance could be
due to the presence on the surface of the sensor
of: ice, snow, mud, thick paint.
The sensor may detect a non-existent obstacle
(echo interference) due to mechanical
interference, for example when washing the
vehicle, in rain (strong wind), hail.
The signals sent by the sensors can also be altered
by the presence of ultrasonic systems (e.g.
pneumatic brakes of trucks or pneumatic drills)
near the vehicle.
Detection of obstacles in the upper part of the
vehicle (particularly in the case of vans or chassis
cabs) may not be guaranteed because the system
detects obstacles that could strike the lower
part of the vehicle.
WARNING
The ultimate responsibility when
parking and carrying out other
dangerous manoeuvres still rests with the
driver.When parking, make sure that no-one is
standing in the area, especially children or
animals. Parking sensors are designed to assist
drivers; however, you must always concentrate
fully during potentially dangerous manoeuvres,
even if carried out at low speeds.

WITH MANUAL GEARBOX
With the vehicle stationary, the engine stops with
the gearbox in neutral and the clutch pedal released.
WITH ROBOTISED GEARBOX
The engine cuts out if the vehicle stops with the
brake pedal pressed.
This condition can be maintained even if the brake
pedal is not depressed, if the gear lever is in position
N.
NoteThe engine can only be stopped automatically
after a speed of about 10 km/h is reached, to prevent
the engine from being repeatedly stopped when
driving at walking pace.
The engine being stopped is signalled by the icon
fig. 105 on the display, depending on the trim level.Engine restarting mode
WITH MANUAL GEARBOX
Press the clutch pedal to allow the engine to be
restarted.
WITH ROBOTISED GEARBOX
