NOTE Because the rear view camera
has a special lens, the lines on the
ground between parking spaces may
not look parallel on the screen.
NOTE In the following situations, the
screen indication may be difficult to see.
There is no abnormality.
Low light (night time)
When the light of the sun or the light
from a vehicle’s headlamps shines
directly into the lens
If a fluorescent light shines directly
into the lens, the screen indication may
be flicker. There is no abnormality.
NOTE If the camera is hot and is then
cooled by rain or a car wash, the lens
can mist up. This phenomenon does
not indicate a malfunction.
NOTE If the atmospheric temperature
is extremely hot or extremely cold, the
rear view camera images may not be
clear. There is no abnormality.
NOTE If a radio set is installed near the
camera, the rear view camera images
may cause electrical system
interference and the system may stop
functioning properly.NOTE It is not possible to fully see
obstacles when the lens is dirty. If the
lens becomes contaminated by water
droplets, snow, mud, or oil, wipe off the
contamination, taking care not to
scratch the lens.
NOTE Please observe the following
cautions. Ignoring them could lead to a
camera malfunction.
Do not subject the camera to
physical shock such as striking it
strongly or throwing a thing.

Errors between the display and the
actual road surface
The reference lines for distance and
vehicle width are based on a level, flat
road surface. In the following cases,
errors are produced between the
display reference lines and the distance
on the actual road surface.
When the rear of the vehicle is
weighed down with the weight of
passengers and luggage in the
vehicle
The reference lines are displayed closer
than the actual distance. Therefore
when there is an obstacle on the
upward slope, it appears farther than its

and B actually are the same distances
from the vehicle, and the point C is
farther off than the point A and B.
WARNING
251)The responsibility for parking and
other manoeuvres is always and in any
case charged to the driver. While carrying
out these manoeuvres, always make sure
that no people (especially children) or
animals are in the area concerned. The
camera is an aid for the driver, but the
driver must never allow his/her attention to
lapse during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed at low
speeds. Always keep a slow speed, so as
to promptly brake in the case of obstacles.252)The rear view camera is an assistance
system that enables the driver to check for
obstacles behind the vehicle. Its range of
view is limited, so you should not overly
depend on it. Please drive just as carefully
as you would if the vehicle did not have the
rear view camera.
253)Be sure to visually confirm safety
around the vehicle with your own eyes. Do
not depend entirely on the rear view
camera.
IMPORTANT
158)It is vital, for correct operation, that
the camera is always kept clean and free
from mud, dirt, snow or ice. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the camera while
cleaning it. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The camera must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. In washing stations
which use steam or high-pressure jets,
clean the camera quickly, keeping the
nozzle more than 10 cm away from the
sensors. Do not apply stickers to the
camera.
159)The rear view camera has a special
lens that can make objects shown on the
screen appear to be closer or further away
than they actually are.160)Due to the number of people in the
vehicle, the fuel quantity, the weight and
positioning of luggage, and/or the condition
of the road surface, the lines in the view
from the rear view camera may not be
accurately positioned relative to the actual
road. Use the reference lines only as a
guideline, and always do a safety check of
your behind and surroundings directly while
driving.

WARNING
254)In the country or area where is no
available emergency call centre of the
ERA-GLONASS, or where the radio wave
of emergency call cannot be transmitted or
received normally, the system does not
operate. In this case, directly arrange an
emergency vehicle or road service with a
cellular phone, etc.
255)If an emergency occurs and you feel a
smell of the fuel or a bad smell, do not stay
inside the vehicle and escape to a safe
place immediately.
256)While waiting for the rescue after the
emergency call, take action to prevent
secondary accidents such as a rear end
collision with the following vehicle, and
escape to a safe place.
257)In the following cases, directly arrange
an emergency vehicle or road service with
a cellular phone, etc. 1 - When the system
does not operate by failing because of
collision, etc. 2 - When the vehicle is in the
place where radio waves cannot be
transmitted and received (for example,
indoor, a basement parking area,
mountainous area, inside a tunnel, etc.). 3 -
When the line to the emergency call centre
is busy and the call is not reachable to the
emergency call centre.
258)Do not remove or install the above
parts. This can cause failure of contact or
equipment, and the system may not
operate normally.259)If the red lamp and/or the green lamp
do not illuminate after setting the ignition

system or the battery for exclusive use of
the ERA-GLONASS may be exhausted.
The battery life is approximately 3 years.
Have the system immediately inspected or
replace the battery by a Fiat Dealership.
261)When the system is not in the
standby state, the system does not
operate. When you drive, make sure to
check that the system is in the standby
state.
262)Before pressing the SOS switch, stop
the vehicle in a safe place. If you operate it
while driving, your attention to the
surrounding circumstances becomes
insufficient enough to cause an
unexpected accident.
263)If the red lamp illuminates as follows,
directly arrange an emergency vehicle or
road service with a cellular phone, etc. 1 -
When the red lamp remains illuminated
(there is a possible failure in the system). 2
- When the red lamp illuminates for
60 seconds (the vehicle may be in the
place where radio waves cannot be
