INTRODUCTION - ON BOARD INSTRUMENTS

1.2 8v, 1.3 Multijet, 1.4 16v

INTRODUCTION

The control panel is fitted behind the flywheel and is connected to the CAN.

The instrument panel is essentially subdivided into four specific areas of operation:

1. Area for warning lights display

2. Area for electronic speedometer

3. Area for electronic rev counter

4. Central area for alphanumeric display

The type and background colour of the instruments can vary between different versions.

The car can be equipped with a multifunction (Comfort) / reconfigurable multifunction (Matrix) display to provide the user with useful information, according to previous settings, whilst driving the vehicle.

COMFORT and MATRIX control panel versions have different display technology.

Comfort version

The figure below shows the multifunction display standard screen.

A. Sport driving mode (where present) indication

B. Dualdrive electric power steering engagement

C. Scheduled service interval

D. Fuel level digital gauge

E. External temperature gauge

F. Headlamp alignment position (only with dipped headlamps on)

G. Engine coolant temperature digital gauge

H. Mileometer (display of kilometres or miles travelled).

I. Date

L. Ice on road warning

M. Time

The Comfort alphanumeric display shows the following functions:

Matrix version

The figure below shows the reconfigurable multifunction display standard screen.

A. Time

B. External temperature gauge (where applicable)

C. Ice on road warning

D. Date

E. Fuel level digital gauge

F. Dualogic gearbox associated instructions (where applicable)

G. Scheduled service interval

I. Engine coolant temperature digital gauge

L. Mileometer (display of kilometres or miles travelled).

Matrix version central dot-matrix area

At the centre of the Matrix version display is a 128 x 64 pixel dot-matrix area.

The central area of the display is subdivided into thematic zones as illustrated below:

A. Area for displaying messages / information / settings, etc.

B. Identification symbol for function displayed

C. Function displayed

Information displayed in area A:

• Audio repetition
• Trip
• Menu
• Dimming
• Feedback
• Convergence
• Other remarks

The symbols and titles for guidance are displayed in areas B and C respectively.

Information displayed in area of groups A+B+C:

• Fault (high/low priority)
• Feedback
• Information
• Standard screen (date)

The Matrix alphanumeric display shows the following functions:

Warning lights

The figure below shows a diagram of the warning lights.

Dimming the panel lights does not affect the brightness of the warning lights (brightness intensity always at 100%). The amount of dimming is transmitted from the instrument panel on the CAN.

The general fault warning light (2) includes the following information/faults:

• FIS intervention
• Engine oil pressure sensor failure
• Exterior lighting failure
• Parking sensors failure
• Engine oil pressure sensor failure
• Robotized gearbox safety signals
• Fuel locking operation
• Fuel locking not available
• ABS, ASR, and ESP fault

Brightness sensor

The control panel is equipped with a brightness sensor that detects day conditions and night conditions so that the car display illumination is managed accordingly. (see wiring n° 1 of Instrument panel)

Use of the key (+15) signal

The control panel receives:

• Key signal from the network (+15 from BCM, CAN "KeySts" signal)
• physical Key signal (from the pawl)

The instrument panel only uses the network key signal to switch off, while the physical key signal is needed to switch it on.

All the instrument panel system modules (Network, WakeUp, Diagnosis) only use the physical key.

Under BCM recovery conditions, the control panel no longer uses the network key and manages its operations using the physical key alone.

The figure below shows the rear view of the instrument panel, where the connector for the car wiring connection is located.

The following table shows the instrument panel pinout.

The pin 7 signal is a percentage of the pin 8 power supply.

Menu function

There are three keys on the control panel, one to enter menu mode or to confirm choice of the selected option and two for navigation within the menu.

The setup menu can be activated with a short press (< 1s) on the button (2) in two different ways:
