Advanced parking assist can only be  
activated when driving forwards.

or damage the sensors while cleaning  
them. Avoid using dry, 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.  
96) Only have interventions on the bumper  
in the area of the sensors carried out by  
a Fiat Dealership. Interventions on the  
bumper that are not carried out properly  
may compromise the operation of the  
parking sensors.

WARNING For more information, refer  
to the "Advanced Driver Assistance  
Systems (ADAS) recommendations"  
chapter in this section.  
The advanced parking assist  
measures a suitable parking slot while  
passing, calculates the trajectory and  
automatically steers the vehicle while  
parking.

97) Only have the bumper repainted or  
any retouches to the paintwork in the  
area of the sensors carried out by a Fiat  
Dealership. Incorrect paint application  
could affect the operation of the parking  
sensors.  
Advanced parking assist is always  
combined with front-rear parking  
assist.  
Advanced parking assist provides  
assistance for the following  
manoeuvres:  
The system has six ultrasonic parking  
sensors each in both the rear and front  
bumper.  
entry into a parallel parking slot  
entry into a perpendicular parking  
slot  
exit from a parallel parking slot  
The driver must control acceleration,  
braking and gears, while steering is  
done automatically. The driver can  
take control at any time by gripping the  
steering wheel.  
ENTRY INTO A PARKING  
SLOT  
Activation  
Slow down the vehicle speed below 30  
km/h.  
Activate the system via the  
Uconnect™ 10.25"/10.25" NAV. If  
the system is activated at a speed  
of 30 km/h or above, on the screen  
appears a dedicated message that  
asks to reduce the speed and the  
system cannot be activated. The speed  
limit can vary during the search and  
manoeuver phases.  
It may be necessary to move forwards  
and backwards more than once.  
Instructions are given in the  
Uconnect™ 10.25"/10.25" NAV.  
Instructions are only given in the case  
of entering a perpendicular parking slot.

Select the entry manoeuvre (1) fig. 221.  
An acoustic message ask for the type  
of park requested.  
The system asks with a message (1)  
fig. 222 to drive slowly until a "Stop"  
acoustic message is audible. That  
means that a free slot is detected and  
the vehicle is in the right position to  
start the next manoeuvre. An "OK"  
message (1) fig. 223 on the screen  
highlight the free slot found.  
Once the driver has stopped the  
vehicle, a checklist appears on the  
screen (1) fig. 224. The driver is asked  
to perform the listed steps. When a  
step is performed, a checkmark (2) in  
the corresponding line is displayed and  
the line is greyed out. An acoustic  
message ask to perform the actions.  
Select the type of parking fig. 221:  
(2) Parallel parking, right/left side  
(3) Perpendicular parking, right/left  
side  
The allowed parallel distance between  
the vehicle and a row of parked cars is  
between 0.5 m and 1.5 m.  
The system will not identify slots that  
are clearly smaller than the vehicle.  
NOTE The following figures illustrate an  
example with right side parallel parking.  
The procedure is similar in case of left  
side parallel parking and perpendicular  
left/right side parking.

The indications of the actions to be  
performed by the driver are shown on  
the screen via messages (1) fig. 225.

The indications of the actions  
performed by the system are shown on  
the screen via icons (2) fig. 225:  
after ten manoeuvres to enter or exit  
a parallel parking slot or after seven  
manoeuvres to enter a perpendicular  
parking slot  
by opening the driver's door  
if one of the front wheels encounters  
an obstacle  
An acoustic message ask to choose  
the side.  
Once the side is chosen follow the  
acoustic and visual commands on  
the Uconnect™ 10.25"/10.25" NAV  
screen.  
the steering wheel is turned  
the vehicle advances or rollbacks  
During all the manoeuvres the speed  
limit is 5 km/h.  
Deactivation  
if parking manoeuvre is successfully  
ended  
The end of manoeuvres is notified by  
a dedicated acoustic message and by  
a dedicated message on the screen  
in the area (1) fig. 225. Then the driver  
can take back control of the car.  
The current park assist manoeuvre  
can be cancelled anytime pressing  
the button "X" on the Uconnect™  
10.25"/10.25" NAV. A message on  
the screen notify that the procedure is  
aborted and the driver can now take  
back the control of the car.  
The system is deactivated  
automatically:  
Deactivation by the driver or by the  
system during manoeuvring will be  
indicated on the display. Additionally, a  
chime sounds.

PARKING SLOT  
Activation  
The system is switched off  
automatically when towing an  
electrically connected trailer, bicycle  
carrier, etc. Contact a Fiat Dealership  
to switch off the system for a  
prolonged period.  
Activate the system via the  
Uconnect™ 10.25"/10.25" NAV.

Fault  
In the event of a fault, a message  
is displayed in the Uconnect™  
10.25"/10.25" NAV, accompanied by  
an acoustic signal.  
In the event of a fault in the power  
steering, a message appear on the  
Uconnect™ 10.25"/10.25" NAV  
screen and the driver has to confirm  
that has red the message.

WARNING It is possible that the  
sensor detects a non-existing object  
caused by echo disturbance from  
external acoustic noise or mechanical  
misalignments (sporadic false warnings  
may occur)  
IMPORTANT  
WARNING  
217) Parking and other potentially  
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,  
always under the driver’s responsibility.  
When performing these operations, always  
make sure that there are no other people  
(especially children) or animals on the  
route you want to drive into. The parking  
sensors are an aid for the driver, but the  
driver must never allow their attention  
to lapse during potentially dangerous  
manoeuvres, even those executed at low  
speeds.  
218) The driver bears full responsibility for  
accepting the parking slot suggested by  
the system and the parking manoeuvre.  
Always check the surrounding area in  
all directions when using the advanced  
parking assist.  
219) The search for the parking space  
and the parking manoeuvres must be  
performed in compliance with the current  
regulations of the Highway Code.  
220) If you wish to stop the steering wheel  
with your hands during a manoeuvre, it is  
advisable to handle it firmly on the outer  
rim. Do not try and keep your hands on the  
inside or hold the spokes.  
98) Performance of the system can be  
reduced when sensors are covered, e.g.  
by ice or snow. Performance of the  
parking assist system can be reduced  
due to heavy loading. Special conditions  
apply if there are taller vehicles in the  
vicinity (e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,  
vans). Object identification and correct  
distance indication in the upper part of  
these vehicles cannot be guaranteed.  
Objects with a very small reflection  
cross-section, e.g. objects of narrow size  
or soft materials, may not be detected by  
the system. Parking assist systems do not  
detect objects outside the detection range.  
99) The operation of the system is based  
on various components: front and rear  
parking sensors, side sensors, steering  
system, wheels, braking system and  
instrument panel. The malfunction of one  
of these components could compromise  
the operation of the system.  
WARNING Make sure that the front  
number plate is properly mounted (not  
bent and no gaps to the bumper on the  
left or right side) and the sensors are  
firmly in place.  
WARNING Advanced parking assist  
system may not respond to changes  
in the available parking space after  
initiating a parking manoeuvre. The  
system may recognize an entry,  
a gateway, a courtyard or even a  
crossing as a parking slot. After  
selecting reverse gear the system  
will start a parking manoeuvre. Take  
care regarding the availability of the  
suggested parking slot.  
100) Only have the bumper repainted  
or any retouches to the paintwork in the  
area of the sensors carried out by a Fiat  
Dealership. Incorrect paint application  
could affect the operation of the parking  
sensors.  
221) Under certain circumstances,  
various reflective surfaces on objects or  
clothing as well as external noise sources  
may cause the system to fail to detect  
obstacles. Special attention must be paid  
to low obstacles which can damage the  
lower part of the bumper.  
WARNING Surface irregularities,  
e.g. on construction zones, are not  
detected by the system. The driver  
accepts responsibility.
