STARTING AND DRIVING
Let’s get to the "heart" of the vehicle:
seeing how you can exploit all of its
potential to the full.
We’ll look at how to drive it safely in any
situation, so that it can be a welcome
companion, with our comfort and
our wallets in mind.STARTING THE ENGINE ................. 92

STOP/START
SYSTEM
125) 126)44)
The Stop/Start system automatically
stops the engine when the vehicle
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off. This
reduces consumption, the emission of
harmful gases and noise pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Engine stopping mode: with the
vehicle stopped, the engine stops with
gearbox in neutral and clutch pedal
released.
NoteThe engine can only be stopped
automatically after exceeding a speed
of about 10 km/h, to prevent the engine
from being repeatedly stopped when
driving at walking pace.
Restarting the engine: press the
clutch pedal to restart the engine.
MANUAL SYSTEM
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
To activate/deactivate the system
manually, press the
fig. 82 button on
the dashboard control trim.
LED off: system deactivated.
LED on: system deactivated.
WARNING
125)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. The
replacement battery should be of the same
type (HEAVY DUTY) and should have the
same characteristics.
126)Before opening the bonnet, make
sure that the engine is off and that the
ignition key is in the STOP position. Please
follow the instructions on the decal near
the front crossmember. We recommend
that you remove the key from the ignition if
other people remain in the vehicle. Exit
from the vehicle only after having removed
the ignition key or having rotated it to the
STOP position. During refuelling, make sure
that the engine is off and that the ignition
key is in the STOP position.

STARTING AND DRIVING
WARNING
44)If climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Stop/Start system can be disabled, for a
continuous operation of the climate control
system.
PARKING SENSORS
127)45)
SENSORS
The sensors are located in the rear
bumper fig. 83 and their function is to
detect the presence of any obstacles
near the rear part of the vehicle and
inform the driver, through an
intermittent acoustic signal.
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated
when reverse is engaged. As the
obstacle behind the vehicle gets closer,
the acoustic signal becomes more
frequent.

OPERATION WITH A
TRAILER
Sensor operation is automatically
deactivated when the trailer's electric
cable plug is fitted in the vehicle's
tow hook socket. The sensors are
automatically reactivated when the
trailer's cable plug is removed.
IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above
or under the sensor.
Objects close to the vehicle are not
detected under certain circumstances
and could therefore cause damage
to the vehicle or be damaged.
The following conditions may influence
the performance of the parking
assistance system:
❒the presence of ice, snow, mud or
multiple layers of paint on the surface of
the sensor may reduce its sensitivity
and the system performance;
❒mechanical interference (e.g. washing
the vehicle, rain, strong wind, hail) may
cause the sensor to detect a
non-existent obstacle ("echo
interference");
97
❒the presence of ultrasonic systems
(e.g. pneumatic brake systems of
trucks or pneumatic drills) near the
vehicle could alter the signals sent to
the sensor;
❒the variation in sensor position,
caused by variation in ride (due
to suspension or shock absorber wear),
changing tyres, overloaded vehicle, or
tuning that lowers the vehicle, for
example, may affect parking sensor
system performance;
❒the presence of a tow hook without
trailer interferes with the correct
operation of the parking sensors. If a
fixed tow hook is installed, the sensors
cannot be used. If the customer installs
a removable tow hook, this must
always be disconnected from
the crossmember whenever the trailer
is not attached to prevent the activation
of the sensors.
WARNING
127)The responsibility for parking and
other dangerous manoeuvres always and
in every case lies with the driver. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. The parking sensors are used
to assist the driver, who must never allow
his attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds.
WARNING
45)The sensors must be clean of mud,
dirt, snow or ice in order for the system to
operate correctly. Be careful not to scratch
or damage the sensors while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of vehicle
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.
