Please read the whole of the CHAPTER 1, SAFETY FIRST! before carrying out any work on your car.
CHAPTER 2
USING YOUR CAR
This Chapter is taken from
FIAT's own official Handbooks
on the Tipo and Tempra. It
contains important and
helpful information for the
operation of your FIAT Tipo or
Tempra.
KEYS AND LOCKS
• 1. DOORS AMD BONNET
DOOR LOCKS
Most FIAT Tipos and Tempras have manual locking. You
turn the key in the lock in the normal way to lock and
unlock the door.
CHILDPROOF LOCKS
1 A.
Some models are
fitted with childproof
locks. You will find them
in the ends of the rear
doors, when open.
• Place your ignition key in
notch A, in the end of the
door, when open.
• Turn to the right to lock the childproof rear door
locks; turn to the left to unlock.
REMOTE LOCKING/UNLOCKING
1B. A
directional
signal is
emitted
when you
press button
C on your
remote unit
(early
models) or
on your
ignition key
(later
models).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The presence of dirt, snow or
ice on the side windows may prevent operation.
We recommend that you
read this chapter
carefully, so that you will
become familiar with your
vehicle's controls and
instruments.
Receiving Unit In Car: The receiving unit can store up
to 6 codes. Tag D, supplied with every receiver, has a
code number stamped on it. Keep this tag in a safe
place
-
replacements are very expensive.
To Store the Code of Your Transmitter:
• Press and hold down button A with a ball-point pen.
The red LED B illuminates, indicating that the receiving
unit is ready to store the code.
• Hold down button C on your remote unit/ignition key.
• The LED at B turns off, indicating that the receiver has
stored the code.
• Release Button A. Red LED B flashes for about 8
seconds to confirm that the code has been stored.
If you press button A again within 8 seconds, the red
LED B illuminates indicating that the receiving unit is
ready to store another code. Repeat the procedure.
If you lose a remote unit there are two ways to store a
new code:
Using a Remote Unit With Code Already Stored:
• Press and hold down button A. After about 2 seconds
red LED B flashes once.
• Press button C on the remote whose code has been
stored. Red LED B illuminates.
• Release button A. Red LED B flashes for 8 seconds
indicating new code has been stored.
Manual Operation: Have tag D ready. The four
numbers stamped on the tag will be used in this
procedure:
• Press Button A twice. Red LED B flashes 3 times and
then turns off for about 2 seconds.
• When LED B lights up again, press button A the
number of times indicated by the first code number on
tag D (if 0 do not press the button). Two seconds after
pressing button A , LED B will turn off for 2 seconds.

• Repeat this operation three more times until the
complete code number has been entered, if the code
has been entered in correctly LED B will start flashing.
• Release button A (see illustration
1B).
Red LED B
flashes for 8 seconds indicating the new remote unit's
code has been stored.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the LED does not illuminate
when remote unit button (illustration 1B, button
O is pressed, change the remote unit's battery.
• Insert the emergency key A into the emergency switch
slot in the glove compartment turn the key to the left to
switch the alarm off (see inset).
• Turn the key back towards its original position to
switch the alarm system back on.
IMPORTANT NOTE: As the alarm system absorbs
energy, if you are not planning on using the car
for a long period of time, turn the alarm exclusion
key to the off position, so as not to run the vehicle
battery down.
• 2. IGNITION SWITCH AND
STEERING COLUMN LOCK

• 4. ELECTRONIC CHECK PANEL
4. The electronic check panel is not fitted to models
with basic trim.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The check panel will not
indicate if the tail light fuses blow at the same
time, or if there is a circuit failure within the panel
display.
SIDE AND HATCHBACK DOORS
When the ignition key is at MAR, the check panel LEDs
g, h, i, I, m and n monitor the light bulbs and fuses.
LEDs a, b, c, d, and e monitor incomplete closure of
the side doors and hatchback.
• Never remove the key when the car is moving.

Fuses located on the auxiliary panel
The fuses protecting special devices (options, features of
special versions or devices with high power require-
ments) are on an auxiliary panel to the side of the fuse
box under the dashboard. It is much easier to remove
and replace auxiliary panel fuses if you first remove the
oddment tray and moulding fastened by 5 screws. The
panel also houses a number of relays:
20A Intake manifold heater (petrol engines).
20A Diesel fuel filter heater (diesel and turbo diesel
engines).
20A Headlight washer pump.
25A Front power windows.
25A Rear power windows.
10A Antilock braking system.
7.5A Low beam headlight dimming system (for countries
where headlights always need to be on.)
30A Radiator fan (diesel versions).
40A Radiator fan (turbo diesel versions with heater).
60A Radiator fan (turbo diesel versions with air condi-
tioning).
The arrangement of the fuses on the auxiliary panel
varies with the number and type of devices present.
The amperage is clearly marked on each fuse. ALWAYS
replace a blown fuse with one of the correct amperage.
NEVER 'fix' a fault by using a fuse of a higher amperage,
nor 'bridge' a blown fuse
-
it could cause a fire!
7f. When a fuse is 'blown'
its conductor wire (A) has
a gap in it.
If a fuse blows, find out
why and put it right
before fitting a new fuse.
