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
IGNITION SWITCH
2. The ignition/steering column lock key, once inserted
in the ignition lock, can be placed in any of the
following four positions:

the steering wheel.
• 3. PANEL INDICATORS
INSTRUMENT DISPLAY PANEL
3. These are the instrument panel warning LED indicators
for all FIAT Tipo/Tempra models. Your vehicle will only
have Panel Indicators relevant to your particular car.
• 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.

• 18. ENGINE STARTING
JUMP STARTING YOUR CAR
Choose a fully charged battery with the same or higher
capacity than the flat battery in your car, then ...
• Make sure that the car with the flat battery's electrical
equipment has its ignition turned OFF, and that the
ignition keys are removed.
18. • Connect
one of the jump
lead clamps to
the positive
battery post of
your flat
battery. Then
clamp the other
end of the same
lead on to the positive post of the second (charged)
battery.
• Connect one end of the second jump lead to the
negative pole of the charged battery, and attach the
other end to the metal terminal (as shown) of the earth
cable from your car's flat battery.
• Run the engine of the car with the charged battery at
a medium to slow speed.
• Start the engine of the car with the flat battery, and
run the engines of both cars for about three minutes.
• To reduce voltage peaks when disconnecting the
jump leads, turn on the air fan and the heated rear
screen of the car that had the flat battery.
• Remove the jump leads, starting with the negative
clamp connected to the car with the flat battery's earth.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When disconnecting the jump
leads DO NOT switch on the headlights in place of
the heated rear screen, as the peak voltage may
blow the headlight bulbs.
BUMP STARTING YOUR CAR
IMPORTANT NOTES: 1) Never bump start a car
fitted with a catalytic converter, as the sudden rush
of unburnt fuel into the catalytic converter could
damage the converter beyond repair.
2) On models fitted with automatic transmission
bump starting is not possible.
3) Ensure that the key is in the ignition and is
turned to MAR while the car is being pushed, or
the steering wheel will lock.
To bump start a car:
• Place the key in the ignition and turn to MAR.
• Engage a medium gear (2nd or 3rd), NOT REVERSE.
• Hold the clutch pedal down while someone pushes.
• When the pushed car has reached a fair speed, with
the car still in gear, release the clutch pedal.
• The engine should now turn over and start running.
Depress the clutch and keep the car running.

PART G: IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS
Finding the Numbers
G1: There are four sets of identification numbers in all. First,
there is the Vehicle Identification (V.I.N.) Number, or chassis
number (a). Second, is the engine number. Position (b) is the
engine number position on all engines; the engine illustrated

is
the 1.4 and 1.6 petrol engine. Also, see G4 and G5.
Third, there is the Model and Data Plate (c). See G3.
G2: Fourth, you will
need the Paint
Identification Plate
if you need to buy
paint. You'll find it
on the inside of the
hatchback door.
The numbers
shown on the plate
give the following
information: 1 -
Paint manufacturer; 2
-
Colour name; 3
-
Colour code;
4
-
Respray and touch-up code.
Vehicle Identification Numbers
See illustration G1, part a. There are two groups of codes
which are unique to your car. You should never buy a car
without checking first that the V.I.N, shown on the car matches
that on the vehicle registration document. The vehicle code is
also shown at position c on the Model and Data Plate and the
chassis serial number is also shown at position a.
