Lock FIAT FULLBACK 2016 1.G Workshop Manual

WARNING
145)Airbags inflate at an extremely rapid
speed. In certain situations, contact with
inflating airbags can result in abrasions,
bruises, light cuts, and the like.
146)IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE
PROPERLY SEATED. A driver or front
passenger too close to the steering wheel
or instrument panel during airbag
deployment can be killed or seriously
injured. Airbags inflate very fast, and with
great force. If the driver and front
passenger are not properly seated and
restrained, the airbags may not protect you
properly, and could cause serious or fatal
injuries when they inflate.
147)Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or
sit with your lower legs too close to the
instrument panel, or lean head or chest
close to the steering wheel or instrument
panel. Do not put feet or legs on or against
the instrument panel.
148)Always drive with your hands on the
rim of the steering wheel so that the airbag
can inflate freely if required. Do not drive
with your body bent forward. Keep your
back straight against the backrest.149)Place all infants and small children in
the rear seat and properly restrained using
an appropriate child restraint system. The
rear seat is the safest for infants and
children.
150)Infants and small children should
never be unrestrained, stand up against
the instrument panel or held in your arms
or on your lap. They could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision, including
when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in an appropriate child
restraint system. See the “Child restraint”
section of this owner’s manual.
151)When there is an active passenger
airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing
child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact.
Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
side airbag when a rearward facing child
restraint system is installed on the front
passenger seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as
possible in order to prevent the child
restraint system from coming into contact
with the dashboard. Immediately reactivate
the passenger airbag as soon as the child
restraint system has been removed.
152)Older children should be seated,
properly wearing the seat belt, with an
appropriate booster seat if needed.
153)Extreme Hazard! NEVER use a
rearward facing child restraint on a seat
protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of
it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the
CHILD can occur.154)Do not fit any accessory that makes
the indicator impossible to see, and do not
cover the indicator with a sticker. You
would not be able to verify the status of the
passenger airbag system.
155)To reduce risk of serious or fatal
injury: always turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” position or put the operation mode
in OFF, before operating the front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch. Failure
to do so could adversely affect the airbag
performance; Wait at least 60 seconds to
operate the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch after turning the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position or putting
the operation mode in OFF. The SRS
airbag system is designed to retain enough
voltage to deploy the airbag; Always
remove the key from the front passenger’s
airbag ON-OFF switch after operating that
switch. Failure to do so could lead to
improper position of the front passenger’s
airbag ON-OFF switch; Do not turn OFF
the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch except when a child restraint
system is fitted to the front passenger seat;
If the OFF indicator does not come on
when the front passenger’s airbag ONOFF
switch is turned OFF, do not fit a child
restraint system to the front passenger
seat. We recommend you to have the
system inspected by a Fiat Dealership; if
the OFF indicator remains on when the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is
turned ON, do not allow anyone to sit on
the front passenger seat. We recommend
you to have the system inspected by a Fiat
Dealership.
124
SAFETY

176)Do not modify your steering wheel,
seat belt retractor or any other SRS
components. For example, replacement of
the steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can
adversely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
177)If your vehicle has received any
damage, we recommend you to have the
SRS inspected to ensure it is in proper
working order.
178)On vehicles with the side airbag, do
not modify your front seats, centre pillar
and centre console. It can adversely affect
SRS performance and lead to possible
injury.
179)If you found any tear, scratch, crack
or damage to the portion where the airbag
is stored, you should have the SRS
inspected by a Fiat Dealership.ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
Brake assist system (where
provided)
The brake assist system is a device
assisting drivers who cannot depress
the brake pedal firmly such as in
emergency stop situations and provides
greater braking force.
If the brake pedal is depressed
suddenly, the brakes will be applied
with more force than usual.
180)
NOTE Once the brake assist system is
operational, it maintains great braking
force even if the brake pedal is lightly
released. To stop its operation,
completely remove your foot from the
brake pedal.
NOTE When the brake assist system is
in use while driving, you may feel the
brake pedal attempt to resist, the pedal
moves in small motions in conjunction
with the operation noise, or the vehicle
body and the steering wheel vibrate.
This occurs when the brake assist
system is operating normally and does
not indicate faulty operation. Continue
to depress the brake pedal.
NOTE When the active stability &
traction control (ASTC) indicator lamp is
illuminated, the brake assist system
may not function.Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
(where provided)
The anti-lock brake system (ABS) helps
prevent the wheels from locking up
when braking. This helps maintain
vehicle drivability and steering wheel
handling.
Driving hints
Always keep a safe distance from the
vehicle in front of you. Even if your
vehicle is equipped with the ABS, leave
a greater braking distance when:
Driving on gravel or snow-covered
roads.
Driving with tyre chains installed.
Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has other
differences in surface height.
Driving on uneven road surfaces.
Operation of ABS is not restricted
situations where brakes are applied
suddenly. This system may also prevent
the wheels from locking when you drive
over manholes, steel roadwork plates,
road markings, or any uneven road
surface.
When the ABS is in use, you may feel
the brake pedal pulsation and the
vibrations of the vehicle body and
steering wheel. It may also feel as if the
pedal resists being pressed.
In this situation, simply hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Do not pump the
brake, which will result in reduced
braking performance.
126
SAFETY

An operation noise is emitted from the
engine compartment or feel a shock
from the brake pedal when start driving
immediately after starting the engine.
These are normal sound or operation
that the ABS makes when performing a
self-check. It does not indicate a
malfunction.
The ABS can be used after the vehicle
has reached a speed over
approximately 10 km/h. It stops
working when the vehicle slows below
7 km/h.
181) 182) 183) 184) 185) 186) 187) 188) 189)
After driving on icy roads
After driving on snow or icy roads,
remove any snow and ice which may
have be left around the wheels. On
vehicles that have an ABS, be careful
not to damage the wheel speed
sensors (A) or the cables located at
each wheel.2WD Hi-Rider, 4WD
2WDActive Stability & Traction Control
(ASTC) (where provided)
The active stability & traction control
(ASTC) takes overall control of the
anti-lock brake system, traction control
function and active stability control
function to help maintain the vehicle’s
control and traction. Please read this
section in conjunction with the page on
the anti-lock brake system, traction
control function and active stability
control function.
190) 191) 192) 193)
NOTE An operation noise may be
emitted from the engine compartment
in the following situations. The sound is
associated with checking the
operations of the ASTC. At this time,
you may feel a shock from the brake
pedal if you depress it. These do not
indicate a malfunction:
When the ignition switch is set to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is
put in ON.
When the vehicle is driven for a while
after the engine is turned on.
NOTE When the ASTC is activated,
you may feel a vibration in the vehicle
body or hear a whining sound from the
engine compartment. This indicates
that the system is operating normally. It
does not indicate a malfunction.
NOTE When the anti-lock brake
system warning lamp is illuminated, the
ASTC is not active.

NOTE On vehicles with the rear
differential lock, the ASTC and ABS
functions are suspended while the rear
differential lock is activated. ASTC
indicator lamp, ASTC OFF indicator
lamp and ABS warning lamp are
illuminated while these functions are
suspended. It does not indicate a
problem. When the rear differential lock
is disengaged, these lamps go out and
function again. Refer to “ABS warning
lamp” and “ASTC indicator lamp, ASTC
OFF indicator lamp”.
Active Stability Control function
The active stability control function is
designed to help the driver maintain
control of the vehicle on slippery roads
or during rapid steering maneuvers. It
works by controlling the engine output
and the brake on each wheel.
NOTE The active stability control
function does not operate when the
drive mode-selector is in the “4L”
position (Easy select 4WD), “4LLc”
position (Super select 4WD II). When
the active stability control function is
operating with the drive mode-selector
in the “2H” or “4H” position (Easy select
4WD), “2H”, “4H” or “4HLc” position
(Super select 4WD II), setting the drive
mode-selector to the “4L” (Easy select
4WD), “4LLc” position (Super select
4WD II) position makes the active
stability control function deactivate
automatically.
NOTE The active stability controlfunction operates at speeds of about
15 km/h or higher.
NOTE On vehicles with the rear
differential lock, the active stability
control function does not operate when
the rear differential lock is activated.
“ASC OFF” switch
The active stability control function is
automatically activated when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position or the operation mode is put in
ON. You can deactivate the system by
pressing down the “ASC OFF” switch
for 3 seconds or longer.
When the active stability control
function is deactivated, the

Driving hints
When extricating the vehicle from mud,
sand or fresh snow with the drive
mode-selector in the “2H”or
“4H”position (Easy select 4WD) or “2H”,
“4H” or “4HLc” position (Super select
4WD II), you may find that operation of
the ASTC prevents the engine speed
from increasing in response to
depression of the accelerator pedal. If
this happens and the vehicle remains
stuck as a result, place the drive
mode-selector in the “4L” position
(Easy select 4WD), “4LLc” position
(Super select 4WD II), or turn the active
stability control switch OFF. The vehicle
will then be easier to extricate. (Brake
control of the active traction control
function is still working to prevent wheel
spins when ASC OFF switch “OFF”,
“4L” position (Easy select 4WD) or
“4LLc” position (Super select 4WD II)
selected.)
NOTE If you continue to press the
“ASC OFF” switch after the active
stability control function is turned off,
the “mistaken operation protection
function” will activate and the active
stability control function will turn back
on.
NOTE Even if the active stability control
function is turned off, it may activate
depending on the vehicle’s movement.

SAFETY

198)Do not turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” or “ACC” position or the operation
mode in ACC or OFF while the hill start
assist is operating. The hill start assist
could stop operating, which could result in
an accident.
IMPORTANT
69)Do not over-rely on the hill start assist
to prevent backwards movement of the
vehicle. Under certain circumstances, even
when hill start assist is activated, the
vehicle may move backwards if the brake
pedal is not sufficiently depressed, if the
vehicle is heavily loaded, if the road is very
steep or slippery or if the vehicle tows a
trailer, etc.
70)The hill start assist is not designed to
keep the vehicle stopped in place on uphill
slopes for more than 2 seconds.
71)If the warning is turn on, the hill start
assist will not operate. Start off carefully.
72)Park your vehicle in a safe place and
stop the engine. Restart the engine and
check whether the warning indicator went
out, in which case the hill start assist is
again working normally. If they warning
remains displayed or reappear frequently, it
is not necessary to stop the vehicle
immediately, but the vehicle should be
inspected by a Fiat Dealership.
73)Do not stop the engine while the
vehicle is moving. Stopping the engine
would make the steering wheel extremely
hard to turn, possibly resulting in an
accident.74)Do not leave the steering wheel turned
all the way in one direction. This can cause
damage to the power steering system.

77) 78)
NOTE To prevent the parking brake
from being released unintentionally, the
lever must be pulled up slightly before it
can be pushed down. Simply pressing
the button does not enable the lever to
be pushed down.
IMPORTANT
76)When you intend to apply the parking
brake, firmly press the brake pedal to bring
the vehicle to a complete stop before
pulling the parking brake lever. Pulling the
parking brake lever with the vehicle moving
could make the rear wheels lock up,
thereby making the vehicle unstable. It
could also make the parking brake
malfunction.
77)Before driving, be sure that the parking
brake is fully released and brake warning
lamp is off. If a vehicle is driven without
releasing the parking brake, the brake will
be overheated, resulting in ineffective
braking and possible brake failure.
78)If the brake warning lamp does not
extinguish when the parking brake is fully
released, the brake system may be an
abnormal. Have your vehicle checked
immediately. For details, refer to “Brake
warning lamp”.
