The vehicle is equipped with a speed

limitation function that can be set on

the user's request to one of four default

values: 90, 100, 110, 130 km/h.

To activate/deactivate this function,

contact a Fiat Dealership.

Following the operation, a sticker

fig. 162 will be applied to the

windscreen showing the top speed

setting.

IMPORTANT The speedometer could

indicate a higher maximum speed than

the effective one, set by the Dealership,

in accordance with the regulations in

force.

These are located in the rear bumper

of the vehicle fig. 163 (Fiorino version)

or fig. 164 (Qubo version) and their

function is to inform the driver, through

an intermittent acoustic warning, about

the presence of obstacles behind the

vehicle.

The device is automatically switched off

in the following cases:

if the ABS or ESC systems intervene;

with the vehicle speed below the set

limit;

in the event of system failure.

DEACTIVATION

GENERAL WARNINGS

During parking manoeuvres, pay the

utmost attention to any obstacles that

could be located above or below the

sensors.

Sometimes, objects located very

near the rear of the vehicle are not

detected and could therefore damage

the vehicle or be damaged themselves.

The signals sent out by the sensors

can be altered by dirt, snow or

ice deposited on the sensors or

by ultrasound systems (e.g. truck

pneumatic brakes or pneumatic drills)

near the vehicle.

The parking sensors work properly

with the swing doors closed. If they

are open, they can cause the system

to send false signals: always close the

rear doors.

Also, do not apply stickers to the

sensors.

The following conditions may influence

the performance of the parking

assistance system:

The sensors are automatically activated

when reverse gear is engaged.

The buzzer becomes more frequent as

the obstacle behind the vehicle gets

closer to the bumper.

OPERATION WITH A

TRAILER

The operation of the sensors is

automatically deactivated when the

plug for the electric cable for the trailer

is inserted in the vehicle tow hook

socket.

The sensors are automatically

reactivated when the trailer's cable plug

is removed.

ACOUSTIC WARNING

When reverse gear is engaged an

intermittent acoustic warning is

automatically activated.

The frequency of the acoustic warning:

increases as the distance between

the vehicle and the obstacle decreases;

become continuous when the

distance between the vehicle and the

obstacle is less than 30 cm and stop

immediately if the distance increases;

it remains constant if the distance

between vehicle and obstacle remains

unchanged; if this situation concerns

the side sensors, the buzzer will stop

after about 3 seconds to avoid, for

example, warning indications in the

event of manoeuvres along walls.

WARNING If you wish to leave the

tow hook fitted without towing a

trailer, it is advisable to contact a Fiat

Dealership for the relevant system

update operations because the tow

hook could be detected as an obstacle

by the central sensors.

Reduced sensor sensitivity and a

reduction in the parking assistance

system performance could be due

to the presence on the surface of the

sensor of: ice, snow, mud, thick paint.

The sensor may detect a non-

existent obstacle (echo noise) due to

mechanical noises, for example when

WARNING If you wish to leave the

tow hook fitted without towing a

trailer, it is advisable to contact a Fiat

Dealership for the relevant system

update operations because the tow

hook could be detected as an obstacle

by the central sensors.

Detection distances

If several obstacles are detected by

the sensors, only the nearest one is

considered.

FAULT INDICATIONS

Any parking sensor failures will be

indicated when engaging reverse by

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.

The warnings sent by the sensor

can also be altered by the presence

of ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic

brakes of trucks or pneumatic drills)

near the car.

Start&Stop SYSTEM

(for versions/markets, where provided)

Detection of obstacles in the upper

part of the vehicle (particularly in the

case of vans or chassis cabs) may not

be guaranteed because the system

detects obstacles that could strike the

lower part of the vehicle.

114) 115) 116)

IN BRIEF

The Start&Stop device automatically

stops the engine each time the

vehicle is stationary and all the

conditions for automatic switch-off

have been met, and starts it again

when the driver wants to move off.

This improves the efficiency of the

vehicle by reducing fuel consumption,

the emission of harmful gases and

noise pollution.

113) Parking manoeuvres, however, are

always the driver’s responsibility. 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.

Restarting the engine

WITH MANUAL GEARBOX

Depress the clutch pedal to restart the

engine.

MANUAL ACTIVATION

AND DEACTIVATION

The device can be turned on/off by

means of the button shown in fig. 166

on the dashboard. When the function

is not active, the button LED is on. In

addition, on some versions, additional

information concerning the deactivation

or activation of the Start&Stop system

is given through a message on the

display.

OPERATING MODE

Stopping the engine

WITH MANUAL GEARBOX

With the vehicle stationary, the engine

stops with the gearbox in neutral and

the clutch pedal released.

Note The engine can only be stopped

automatically after exceeding about 10

IMPORTANT

23) 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 should be washed

On some versions, the Start&Stop

system will be activated every time
