snow chains FIAT PANDA 2017 319 / 3.G Owners Manual

IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is
not a parking brake, therefore do not
leave the vehicle without activating the
handbrake, switching off the engine,
and engaging first gear, with the vehicle
parked in safe conditions.
ASR (AntiSlip
Regulation) SYSTEM
It is an integral part of the ESC system.
It is automatically activated in the case
of drive wheels slipping, loss of grip
on wet roads (aquaplaning) and
acceleration on slippery, snowy or icy
roads, etc.
Depending on the slipping conditions,
two different control systems are
activated:
if the slipping involves both drive
wheels, the ASR intervenes reducing
the power transmitted by the engine;
if the slipping only involves one
of the drive wheels, it intervenes
automatically braking the wheel that is
slipping.
Engagement/disengagement of the
ASR system
The ASR system switches on
automatically each time the engine is
started.Whilst driving, the ASR can be switched
off and subsequently switched on
again by pressing the ASR OFF button
fig. 47.
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a dedicated
message shown on the display. When
the system is not active, the LED on the
button ASR OFF turns on and, on
some versions, a message appears on
the display.
When the ASR is deactivated whilst
driving, the next time the vehicle is
started the ASR is automatically
activated.
When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions,
the driving wheels skidding when
setting off gives you better traction.
59) 60) 61) 62) 63)
HBA (Hydraulic Brake
Assist) SYSTEM
The HBA system is designed to
improve the vehicle's braking capacity
during emergency braking. The system
detects an emergency braking by
monitoring the speed and strength with
which the brake pedal is pressed,
thereby applying the optimal brake
pressure.
This can reduce the braking distance:
the HBA system therefore completes
the ABS.
Maximum assistance from the HBA
system is obtained by pressing the
brake pedal very quickly. In addition,
the brake pedal must be pressed
continuously during braking, avoiding
intermittent presses, to benefit from the
system.
Do not reduce pressure on the brake
pedal until braking is not necessary
anymore.
The HBA system is deactivated when
the brake pedal is released.

The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by the
warning
light continuously lit on the instrument
panel and a dedicated warning
message on the display.
If one tyre only is flat, the system can
indicate its position: it is in any case
recommended to check the pressure
on all four tyres.
This indication is displayed also when
turning the engine off and on again until
the RESET procedure is carried out.
Reset procedure
The iTPMS needs an initial "self-
learning" phase (with length depending
on the driving style and road conditions:
optimal conditions being driving on a
straight road at 80 km/h for at least 20
minutes) which starts when the Reset
procedure is carried out.
The Reset procedure must be carried
out:
each time tyre pressure is modified;
when even only one tyre is changed;
when tyres are rotated/inverted;
when the space-saver wheel is
fitted.Before carrying out the Reset
procedure, inflate the tyres to the rated
pressure values specified in the inflation
pressure table (see "Wheels" paragraph
in the "Technical specifications"
chapter).
If the Reset procedure is not carried
out, in all above cases, the
warning
light may give false indications on
one or more tyres.
To carry out the RESET procedure, with
the vehicle stopped and the ignition
device at MAR, use the Main Menu as
follows:
briefly press thebutton: the
display will show Reset;
press thebutton or the
button to select ("Yes" or "No");
briefly press thebutton: the
display will show "Confirm";
pressbutton orto select
("Yes" to Reset or "No" to exit the video
page);
press thebutton again to return
to the standard screen or to the main
menu according to where you are in the
menu.
At the end of the Reset procedure the
display will show the "Reset saved"
message, indicating that the self-
learning has been started.Operating conditions
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h.
In a few situations such as sporty
driving, particular conditions of the road
surface (e.g. icy, snowy, unsurfaced
roads...) the signalling may be delayed
or partial in detecting the contemporary
deflation of more than one tyre.
Under special conditions (e.g. vehicle
loaded asymmetrically on one side,
towing a trailer, damaged or worn tyre,
fitting the space-saver wheel, use of the
"Fix&Go Airflat" kit, fitting snow chains,
fitting different tyres on the axles) the
system may give false indications or be
temporarily deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated,
the warning light
flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display shows
a dedicated message.
This indication is displayed also after
the engine has been switched off and
then on again if the correct operating
conditions are not restored.

WHEELS
172) 173) 174)Alloy or pressed steel rims. Tubeless radial carcass tyres.
All approved tyres are listed in the Registration Document.
IMPORTANT If there are any discrepancies between the Owner Handbook and the Registration Document, take the information
from the latter. For safe driving, the car must be fitted with tyres of the same make and type on all wheels.
IMPORTANT Do not use inner tubes with Tubeless tyres.

NoteFor Panda Cross and Panda 4x4 versions if the space-saver wheel is used, the control unit for 4x4 drive detects its
presence (via the wheel speed signals) and reduces the intervention of the four-wheel drive to a minimum, while guaranteeing
the agility of the vehicle. No fault/alarm signal is displayed on the instrument panel or on the display.
COLD TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE (bar)
When the tires are warm, the inflation pressure should be + 0.3 bar in relation to the recommended figure. However, recheck
that the value is correct with the tyre cold. With snow tyres, add +0.2 bar to the pressure value prescribed for standard tyres.

SNOW CHAINS
175) 176) 177)71)
Important notes
The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations of each country. In certain countries, tyres marked with
code M+S (Mud and Snow) are considered as winter equipment; therefore their use is equivalent to that of the snow chains.
The snow chains may be applied only to the front wheel tyres.
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first few metres have been driven.
Using snow chains with tyres with non-original dimensions may damage the vehicle.
Using different size or type (M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between front and rear axle may adversely affect vehicle driveability, with the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and resulting accidents.
Snow chains cannot be fitted to the space-saver wheel (for versions/markets, where provided). If a front tyre is punctured,
replace a rear wheel with the space-saver wheel and move the rear wheel to the front axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front, snow chains can be fitted.

TECHNICAL DATA

WARNING
172)The maximum speed for snow tyres marked “Q” is 160 km/h, while it is 190 km/h for “T” tyres and 210 km/h for "H" tyres. The highway
code speed limits must however always be complied with.
173)185/55 R15 82T tyres cannot be fitted with chains.
174)175/65 R14 82T tyres can be fitted with reduced size snow chains: 9 mm.
175)175/65 R15 84T tyres can be fitted with reduced size snow chains: 7 mm.
176)Keep the vehicle's speed down when snow chains are fitted; never exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or
pavements and do not drive long distances over roads without snow, to avoid damaging both your vehicle and the road surface.
177)DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when using integral hub caps fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and after sale tyres provided with Rim
Protector. Use of unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
WARNING
71)With snow chains, use the accelerator with extreme care to prevent, or to limit as much as possible, slipping of the drive wheels that
could cause chain breakage, resulting in damage to the car body or mechanical components.
