2016 FIAT TIPO 5DOORS STATION WAGON stop start

Symbol What it means
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(where provided)
Diesel versions: the symbol turns on and is displayed for 3 minute cycles and intervals of 5
seconds until the oil is changed.
The symbol is displayed until the problem is solved.
Petrol versions: the symbol switches on and then is not displayed when the display cycle is
completed.
IMPORTANT After the first indication, each time the engine is started the symbol will continue
to switch on as described above until the oil is changed.
If the symbol flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply
reports that it is now necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle.
The deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by using the vehicle for short drives, preventing
the engine from reaching operating temperature.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

Symbol What it means
SCHEDULED SERVICING (SERVICE)
The “Scheduled Servicing Plan” includes vehicle maintenance at fixed intervals (refer to the
"Maintenance and care" chapter).
When the next scheduled service is approaching, the symbol will be displayed, followed by the
number of kilometres/miles or days (where provided) left, when the ignition device is turned to
MAR.
This is displayed automatically, with ignition device at MAR, 2000 km before servicing or,
where provided, 30 days before servicing. It is also displayed each time the ignition device is
turned to MAR. The display will be in km or miles according to the unit of measurement set.
Go to a Fiat Dealership, where the "Scheduled Servicing Plan" operations will be performed
and the message will be reset.
The switching on of this symbol indicates that the clutch pedal must be pressed for starting
enablement.
The switching on of this symbol suggests shifting to a higher or lower gear.
SPEED LIMIT EXCEEDED
The (white) symbol switches on when the speed limit (e.g. 110 km/h) set through the menu of
the display is exceeded (the inner value updates according to the set speed).
For versions/markets, where provided, the (red) symbol switches on when the speed limit set
through the menu of the display is exceeded: for these versions the value is set to 120.
START&STOP SYSTEM ACTIVATION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The symbol turns on to indicate that the engine has been stopped by the START&STOP
system.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT
The headlight alignment corrector operates with ignition device at MAR and dipped headlights
on. Press
andon the control panel.

49)The capability of the TC must never be
tested irresponsibly and dangerously, in
such a way as to compromise personal
safety and the safety of others.
50)The PBA system cannot overrule the
natural laws of physics, and cannot
increase the grip available according to the
condition of the road.
51)The PBA system cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to excessive
speed on corners, driving on low-grip
surfaces or aquaplaning.
52)The capability of the PBA system must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as to
compromise the safety of the driver, the
other occupants of the vehicle or any other
road user.
53)The Hill Hold Control system is not a
parking brake; therefore, never leave the
vehicle without having engaged the parking
brake, turned the engine off and engaged
first gear, so that it is parked in safe
conditions (for further information read the
"Parking" paragraph in the "Starting and
driving" chapter).
54)There may be situations on small
gradients (less than 8%), with vehicle
laden, in which the Hill Hold Control system
may not activate, causing a slight reversing
motion and increasing the risk of collision
with another vehicle or object. The driver is,
in any case, responsible for safe driving.
55)The performance of a vehicle with ERM
must never be tested in imprudent or
dangerous ways, with the possibility of
putting the safety of the driver or other
people at risk.56)When towing trailers, the utmost
caution at the wheel is recommended.
Never exceed the maximum permitted
loads (see the description in the "Weights"
paragraph in the "Technical Specifications"
chapter).
57)The TSC system cannot prevent
swerving for all trailers. If the system
activates during driving, reduce the speed,
stop the vehicle in a safe place and arrange
the load correctly to prevent the trailer from
swerving.DRIVING

FULL BRAKE CONTROL
SYSTEM
58) 59) 60) 61)
18) 19) 20) 21) 22) 23) 24) 25) 26)
The Full Brake Control system is a
SUPPLEMENTARY AID to help the
driver avoid hitting the vehicles in front.
It does not replace the driver, who must
maintain the safety distance and adjust
the vehicle’s speed according to the
traffic, visibility and weather conditions,
even when the system is active.
DO NOT wait for a collision warning to
reduce speed. If the driver fails to use
the brake pedal, it could cause a
collision.
The Full Brake Control system does not
detect pedestrians, animals or other
obstacles that cross the direction of
travel, nor vehicles traveling in the
opposite direction.
The Fill Brake Control system consists
of a radar located behind the front
bumper fig. 53.
61

In the event of an imminent collision the
system may intervene by braking the
vehicle to prevent the crash or reduce
its effects.
When the system detects the risk of
collision, it gives the driver acoustic and
visual signals through specific
messages on the instrument panel
display. The signals are intended to
allow the driver to react promptly, in
order to prevent or reduce the effects of
a potential accident.
If the system does not detect any
action by the driver, it can intervene by
braking automatically to attenuate the
potential accident (automatic braking). If
the system detects that the driver is
pressing the brake pedal, but this is not
deemed sufficient, the system may
intervene in order to improve the
reaction of the braking system,therefore reducing vehicle speed further
(additional assistance during braking).
Versions equipped with Start&Stop
system: at the end of the automatic
braking, the Start&Stop system will
activate as described in paragraph
"Start&Stop system" of the "Starting
and driving" chapter.
Versions with manual gearbox:at
the end of the automatic braking the
engine may stall and turn off, unless the
driver presses the clutch pedal.
IMPORTANT After the car is stopped,
the brake callipers may be locked for
about 2 seconds for safety reasons.
Make sure you press the brake pedal if
the vehicle moves slightly forwards.
Engagement/disengagement
The Full Brake Control can be
deactivated (and subsequently
reactivated) through the instrument
panel Menu.
With theUconnect™ 5"or7" HD
system, some Menu items are shown
and managed on the display of the
latter and not on the instrument panel
display (refer to the dedicated
Multimedia chapter or to the
supplement available online).
The system can be deactivated even
with the ignition device at MAR.
IMPORTANT The system status can be
changed with vehicle at a standstill only.
The Full Brake Control can be set by
selecting one of the 3 Menu options:
System active: the system (if active),
in addition to the visual and acoustic
warnings, can provide automatic
braking and additional assistance
during braking, if the driver does not
brake hard enough in the event of a
potential impact with the vehicle in
front;
System partially active: the system (if
active), does not give the visual and
acoustic warnings, but can provide
automatic braking and additional
assistance during braking, if the driver
does not brake hard enough in the
event of a potential impact with the
vehicle in front;
System deactivated: the system
does not give visual and acoustic
warnings, limited braking, automatic
braking or additional assistance during
braking. The system will therefore
provide no indication of a possible
accident.
Activation/deactivation
If the Full Brake Control system has
been correctly activated from the Menu,
it will be active each time the engine is
started.

SAFETY

STARTING AND DRIVING
Let’s get to the core of the vehicle:
seeing how you can exploit all of its
potential to the full.
We’ll look at how to drive it safely in any
situation, so that it can be a welcome
companion, with our comfort and our
wallets in mind.STARTING THE ENGINE........94

STARTING THE
ENGINE
Before starting the engine, adjust the
seat, the interior rear view mirrors, the
door mirrors and fasten the seat belt
correctly.
Never press the accelerator pedal for
starting the engine.
If necessary, messages indicating the
starting procedure can be shown on
the display.
ENGINE STARTING
PROCEDURE
103) 104) 105) 106)
28) 29) 30) 31)
Proceed as follows:
engage the parking brake and place
the gear lever in neutral;
fully depress the clutch pedal
without touching the accelerator;
only for diesel versions, bring the
ignition device to MAR, warning light
will come on in the instrument
panel and wait for the warning light to
switch off;
turn the ignition device to AVV and
release it as soon as the engine starts;
if the engine does not start within 10
seconds, bring the ignition device back
to STOP and wait for 10-15 secondsbefore repeating the starting procedure;
after the manoeuvre has been
repeated, if the problem persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
103)Do not try to start the engine pouring
fuel or other flammable fluid inside the
throttle body air intake: this might damage
the engine and injury people nearby.
104)It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes in
oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
105)The brake servo is not active until the
engine is started, so you would need to
apply much more force than usual to the
brake pedal.
106)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT
28)We recommend that during the initial
period, or during the first 1600 km, you do
not drive to full car performance (e.g.
excessive acceleration, long journeys at top
speed, sharp braking, etc.).
29)When the engine is switched off never
leave the ignition device in the MAR
position to prevent useless current
absorption from draining the battery.30)A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose; it wastes fuel and is
especially damaging to turbocharged
engines.
31)Warning light
will flash after starting
or during prolonged cranking to indicate a
fault with the glow plug heating system. If
the engine starts, the vehicle can be used
as normal, but a Fiat Dealership must be
contacted as soon as possible.

the gear lever as the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
STOP/START
SYSTEM
(where provided)
The Start&Stop system automatically
stops the engine each time the vehicle
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off.
In this way, the vehicle efficiency is

the Stop/Start system, if the driver
releases their seat belt or opens the
driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only by using the
ignition device.This condition is indicated to the driver
both through a buzzer and a message
on the display.
"ENERGY SAVING"
FUNCTION
If, following the automatic engine
restarting, the driver does not carry out
any action for more than 3 minutes, the
Stop/Start system stops the engine
definitely, to prevent fuel consumption.
In these cases, the engine can only be
restarted using the ignition device.
NOTE In any case, it is possible to keep
the engine running by deactivating the
system.
