2017 FIAT TALENTO wheel

TPMS – Tyre
Pressure
Monitoring System
(For versions/markets where provided)
Tyre pressure loss warning
This system warns the driver of any
pressure loss in one or more of the
tyres.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except the spare) has a
built-in sensor in the inflation valve that
measures tyre pressure at regular
intervals while driving. Warning light 1
fig. 202 stays on to warn the driver in
case of tyre pressure loss (deflated tyre,
puncture, etc.).Re-initialising the tyre pressure
reference value
This operation must be done:when the tyre reference pressure has
to be changed so it can be adapted to
use conditions (empty, with a load,
highway driving, etc.);
after tyre rotation ( however, this
practice is not advised);
after replacing a tyre.
This operation must always be done
after a cold tyre inflation pressure of all
the tyres.
Inflation pressure has to correspond to
the vehicle's current use (empty, with a
load, highway driving, etc.).
Re-initialisation procedure
With the engine running and the vehicle
stationary.
briefly press on button 3 or 4
fig. 203 to select the "TYRE
PRESSURE SET < LONG PRESS >"
function on display panel 2;
keep button 3 or 4 pressed (for
about 3 seconds) to start initialisation.
The appropriate message indicates that
the request to restore the tyre pressure
reference values is being processed.
A few minutes of driving is required to
complete the initialisation.NOTE The tyre pressure reference value
must not be less than that advised and
indicated on the the driver's door pillar.
Display
The display 2 fig. 203 on the instrument
panel indicates any inflation faults
(deflated tyre, puncture, etc.).
Warning light 1 fig. 202 stays on
permanently along with the message to
that effect. This indicates that at least
one tyre is deflated.
If necessary, check and adjust the
pressure of the four tyres when cold.
The light goes off after driving for a few
minutes.
IMPORTANT Unexpected loss of tyre
pressure (blowout, etc.) might not be
detected by the system.
The warning light turns on fixed
together with a dedicated message and
an acoustic signal.

RemarksIf the vehicle does not start, a
dedicated message appears on the
instrument panel;
In some cases, you will need to
move the steering wheel while pressing
the ignition button 1 to unlock the
steering wheel column; You will be
warned with message to this effect;
When starting the engine in very cold
weather (less than -10°C): keep the
clutch pressed until the engine starts.
Accessory function
When the engine starts, you can
access a few functions (radio,
navigation system, windscreen wipers,
etc.).
To make the other functions available,
with the key in the passenger
compartment or inserted in the key
reader 2 fig. 205, press button
1 without pressing on the pedals.
Irregular operation
The electronic key with easy access will
not function in the following instances:
The electronic key might have dead
batteries
In the vicinity of a device functioning
on the same frequency (screen cell
phone, video games, etc.);
The vehicle is located in an area
known for a high presence of
electro-magnetic waves.A message to this effect appears in the
instrument panel.
Insert the electronic key in the reader 2
fig. 205 as far as it will go.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
142) 143)
23) 24)
Vehicles with an electronic key
The vehicle needs to be stopped.
With the electronic key in the reader 2
fig. 205 or in the detection area 3
fig. 206, press button 1 fig. 205: the
engine turns off. The steering wheel
lock locks when the driver's door opens
or when the vehicle is locked.
If the key is not in the passenger
compartment when you try to turn the
engine off, a dedicated message
appears on the instrument panel: press
button 1 fig. 205 for more than
2 seconds.
After turning the engine off, a few
accessories still on (radio, etc.) continue
functioning for about 10 minutes.
When you open the driver's door, the
accessories turn off.
WARNING
138)Do not start the vehicle on an incline
with the gear in neutral. The power steering
might not activate. Risk of accident.139)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.
140)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.
141)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
142)Do not remove the key from the
starter device or the electronic key from the
reader before effectively stopping the
vehicle; stopping the engine means
deleting various aids: When the engine is
stopped, the power brakes, power steering
and safety devices like the air bags and
pre-tensioners no longer work.
143)Especially when you leave the car
with the electronic key in your pocket,
make sure the engine is effectively
stopped.
IMPORTANT
23)When the engine is stopped, never
leave the ignition device in the "M" position
to prevent useless current absorption from
draining the battery.
24)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.

USING THE
GEARBOX
144)
25)
To engage reverse (vehicle
stopped)
From the neutral position, lift up ring 1
fig. 207 against the lever knob to
engage reverse gear.
The reverse lights go on when the gear
is engaged (starter device in position
M).
WARNING
144)Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. It is therefore
essential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat
and do not get in the way of the pedals.
IMPORTANT
25)Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
PARKING THE
VEHICLE
145) 146)
26) 27) 28)
Proceed as follows when parking and
leaving the vehicle:
engage a gear (1st gear if facing
uphill or reverse if facing downhill) and
leave the wheels turned;
stop the engine and engage the
handbrake;
always remove the ignition key.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a
stone if the vehicle is parked on a steep
slope.
IMPORTANTNEVERleave the vehicle
with the gear in neutral.

Tools
The equipment in the relative tool bag
varies according to the vehicle's
function. The tool bag 2 fig. 249 is
located under the driver's seat. To take
it out, move the seat forward and put
the backrest down (refer to the "Front
seats” paragraph in the “Knowing you
vehicle” chapter). Undo the bag fixing
screw 1 fig. 249 and then turn the bag
to remove it.
Inside the tool bag you will find fig. 250:
3: the jack (to fold up properly before
putting it back in the box, being careful
to reposition the handle);
4: the anti-theft lug wrench to fasten
the wheel;
5: the wrench for removing the
hubcaps;
6: the elbow wrench;
7: the wrench to unscrew and
re-screw the wheel bolts and spare tyre
basket;
8: tow ring (refer to the "Towing the
vehicle” paragraph in this chapter).
Spare tyre
For vehicles that are equipped with
them, you need to use tool A
fig. 251 consisting of:
the wrench for unscrewing and
re-screwing the tyre nuts 2 fig. 251;
for some versions, the specific lug
wrench 1 fig. 251.249T36718-1
250T36692
147

To extract the spare wheel B fig. 252:with tool A fig. 251 completely undo
nut 5 fig. 252 (right side) and partially
undo nut 3 fig. 252 (left side) in order to
free the basket 4 fig. 252 from nut 3;
free the spare wheel.
Depending on the version, there is
documentation with the instructions
described above in the tool box.
To put spare tyre B fig. 252 back in
place, proceed in the reverse order.
Check that bracket 4 is positioned
correctly before tightening nuts 3 and 5
fig. 252.IMPORTANT In some cases (rear wheel
puncture, vehicle loaded with tow
system) you may need to lift the vehicle
up (from the closest lifting point to the
tyre concerned) to be able to access
the spare tyre.
Wheel plate
Remove wheel plate 9 using wrench 5
fig. 253, inserting the hook in one of the
plate's outside openings.
To refit the plate, position it with respect
to valve 10 fig. 253.
Insert the retaining hooks starting from
the side of valve A, then B and C,
ending with the side opposite valve D
fig. 253.Remove wheel plate 11 fig. 254 with
wrench 5 by inserting the hook in the its
peripheral opening.
To refit it, position the five wheel plate
fasteners corresponding to the 5 fixing
screws fig. 254 and press hard on the
centre of the wheel plate to hook it to
the wheel.

IN AN EMERGENCY

Replacing a wheel
Undo the wheel nuts with wrench 1
fig. 255.
Position the jack 2 fig. 256 horizontally
so that its head 3 fig. 256 coincides
with the hole under the chassis nearest
to the wheel concerned.
Start raising the jack to rest the base
correctly (it should be slightly under the
vehicle and aligned with the jack head).
Undo the nuts and remove the tyre.
Position the spare tyre in the centre of
the hub.
Tighten the nuts and lower the jack.
When the tyre is on the ground, tighten
the screws hard and check their
tightness as soon as possible.IMPORTANT If you are using
tamper-proof screws, position them as
close as possible to the valve (it could
be impossible to fit the wheel plate).
WARNING
166)Activate hazard warning lights Park
the vehicle far from traffic on level, resistant
and not slippery ground. Pull up the
handbrake and engage a gear. Get all the
occupants out of the car and far from
traffic.
167)It is extremely dangerous to attempt
to change a wheel on the side of the
vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure
that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
168)Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc to show that your vehicle is
stationary. Passengers should get out of
the vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
loaded, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the traffic.169)The spare tyre is not the same size as
the other four. Never fit more than one
spare tyre on the same vehicle. The
standard wheel is larger than the spare
wheel, so the vehicle will be lower. Replace
the spare tyre as soon as possible with a
tyre identical to the original. While in use,
which has to be temporary, your speed
should not exceed that indicated on the
wheel's label. If you have to use snow
chains, fit the spare tyre on the rear axle
and check the tyre pressures. Fitting this
tyre can alter the vehicle's normal
behaviour. Avoid accelerating or braking
abruptly and lower your speed on curves.
170)Never leave tools haphazardly in the
vehicle: if you brake suddenly, they could
scatter around the floorboards, causing a
hazard to the occupants. After use, be sure
to fasten the tools in the tool bag, then
place it correctly in its position: risk of
injuries. The jack must only be used for
changing a wheel. It should never be used
to raise the vehicle to perform a repair
underneath.
171)There should be no objects at the
driver's feet: in case of sharp braking, they
could slide under the pedals, preventing
their correct use.
