2018 FIAT TIPO 5DOORS STATION WAGON display

93)When there is an active passenger
airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing
child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact.
Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
side airbag when a rearward facing child
restraint system is installed on the front
passenger seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as
possible in order to prevent the child
restraint system from coming into contact
with the dashboard. Immediately reactivate
the passenger airbag as soon as the child
restraint system has been removed.
94)To deactivate the airbags using the
instrument panel menu, see the description
in the "Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter, "Menu Options" paragraph.
95)Do not affix rigid objects to the
garment hooks or support handles.
96)Do not rest your head, arms or elbows
on the door, windows or the area in which
the Window bag is located to avoid
possible injury during airbag inflation.
97)Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.
98)If, when the ignition device is turned to
MAR, the
warning light does not switch
on or stays on whilst driving, a fault may
have occurred in the restraint systems. In
this case the airbags or pretensioners may
not be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system checked.99)In some versions, in case of a LED
failure (located on the plate of the
instrument panel), thewarning light on
the instrument panel turns on and the
passenger side airbags are deactivated.
100)On cars with side bags, do not cover
the front seat backrests with extra covers.
101)Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between your
lips (pipe, pencils, etc.): they could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed.
102)If the car has been stolen or in the
case of attempt to steal it, if it has been
subjected to vandalism or floods, have the
airbag system checked by a Fiat
Dealership.
103)If the ignition device is at MAR, even if
the engine is switched off, airbags may be
deployed when the vehicle is stationary
and hit by another vehicle. Therefore, even
if the vehicle is stationary, when an active
front passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT
install rearward facing child restraint
systems on the front passenger seat.
Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. Therefore, always deactivate the
passenger side airbag when a rearward
facing child restraint system is installed on
the front passenger seat. The front
passenger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to prevent
the child restraint system from coming into
contact with the dashboard. Immediately
reactivate the passenger airbag as soon as
the child restraint system has been
removed.Also remember that, if the ignition device is
set to STOP, none of the safety devices
(airbags or pretensioners) will be deployed
in the event of collision. Non-deployment in
such cases does not indicate a system
malfunction.
104)Malfunction of the
warning light is
indicated by the activation of an airbag
failure symbol and a dedicated message
on the instrument panel display (or, for
versions where provided, by the activation
of a blinking generic failure warning light).
The pyrotechnic charges are not disabled.
Contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
105)The airbag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners. For
collisions in the range between the two
thresholds, it is normal for only the
pretensioners to be activated.
106)The airbag does not replace seat
belts but increases their efficiency.
Because front airbags are not deployed for
low-speed crashes, side collisions,
rear-end shunts or rollovers, occupants are
protected, in addition to any side bags,
only by their seat belts, which must
therefore always be fastened.

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
107) 108) 109) 110)
38) 39) 40) 41)
Versions with manual transmission
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 deviceback to STOP and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure;
after the manoeuvre has been
repeated, if the problem persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
Versions with automatic
transmission
(where provided)
Proceed as follows:
engage the parking brake and set
the gear lever to P (Park) or N (Neutral);
set the ignition device to AVV;
if the engine does not start, bring the
ignition device back to STOP and wait
for 10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure;
after the manoeuvre has been
repeated, if the problem persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
107)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.
108)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.
109)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.110)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT
38)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.).
39)When the engine is switched off never
leave the ignition device in the MAR
position to prevent useless current
absorption from draining the battery.
40)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.
41)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.

STARTING AND DRIVING

The gear engaged is shown on the
display.
To select a gear, move the lever
forwards or backwards.
To select the "sequential" mode, move
the lever from D (Drive) to the left: the
position + (upper gear) or – (lower gear)
can be reached; these are unstable
positions, which means that the lever
always returns to the central position.
The brake pedal and button 1
fig. 117 on the knob must be pressed
to exit position P (Park).
Also to shift from position N (neutral) to
position D (drive) or R (reverse), you
need to press the brake pedal.
IMPORTANT DO NOT accelerate while
shifting from position P (or N) to another
position.
IMPORTANT After selecting a gear, wait
a few seconds before accelerating. This
precaution is particularly important with
engine cold.
AUTOMATIC DRIVING
MODE
To select the automatic driving mode,
you need to shift the gear lever to D
(Drive): the best ratio is selected by the
electronic transmission control unit
depending on vehicle speed, engine
load (accelerator pedal position) and
gradient of the road.D can be selected from sequential
operation in any driving conditions.
AUTOSTICK - Sequential
mode
The Autostick mode (sequential shift), in
which the driver can decide when to
shift gear, is recommended in some
specific driving conditions, such as
when driving a heavily loaded car on a
gradient, in a strong headwind or when
towing a heavy trailer.
In these conditions, using a lower gear
improves vehicle performance and
prolongs the transmission's life, limiting
gearshifting and preventing overheating.
It is possible to shift from position D
(Drive) to the sequential mode
regardless of car speed.
Activation
With gear lever in position D (Drive), to
activate the sequential drive mode,
move the lever to the left (– and +
indication of the trim). The gear
engaged will be shown on the display.
Gearshifting is made by moving the
gear lever forwards, towards symbol –
or backwards, towards symbol +.
Deactivation
To deactivate the sequential driving
mode, bring the gear lever back to
position D (Drive), automatic mode.Important notes
Do not downshift on slippery
surfaces: the drive wheels might lose
grip with following risk for the car to
slip. This could cause accidents or
personal injuries.
The car will keep the gear selected
by the driver until the safety conditions
allow it. This means, for example, that
the system will try to prevent the engine
from switching off, automatically
downshifting if the engine speed is too
low.
TRANSMISSION
EMERGENCY FUNCTION
(where provided)
Transmission operation is constantly
monitored to detect any fault. If a
condition that might damage the
transmission is detected, the "recovery"
function is activated.
In this condition, the transmission stays
in 3
thgear, regardless of the selected
gear.
Positions P (Parking), R (Reverse) and N
(Neutral) still work. Icon
might light
up on the display.
In the case of "recovery" operation
immediately contact the nearest Fiat
Dealership.

in sequential driving mode; – shifting to
lower gear in sequential driving mode.
To select the "sequential" mode, shift
the lever from D (Drive) towards the left.
The reachable positions are + (higher
gear) or - (lower gear).These positions are unstable: the lever
always returns to central position.
The lever has a button 1 fig. 118, which
must be pressed to move it to the P or
R positions.
With the ignition key in the MAR
position, press the brake pedal and use
the button 1 fig. 118 to shift the
selector lever from P to any other
position.
Press the button 1 fig. 118 when the
engine is idling to shift from R to P.
To change from the N to D or from the
N to R positions, you need to press the
brake pedal and the button 1 on the
lever. It is advisable not to accelerate
and to make sure that the engine is
stabilised at idle speed.
Shifting from D to N is free, while button
1 fig. 118 must be pressed to pass
fromDtoR.
AUTOMATIC DRIVING
MODE
To select the automatic driving mode,
you need to shift the gear lever to D
(Drive): the best ratio is selected by the
electronic transmission control unit
depending on car speed, engine load
(accelerator pedal position) and
gradient of the road.
D can be selected from sequential
operation in any driving conditions.“Kick-Down” function
To resume speed quickly, press the
accelerator pedal fully and the
transmission control system may shift
to one or more lower gears (Kick-down
function).
IMPORTANT When driving on roads
with poor grip conditions (snow, ice,
etc.), avoid activating the kick-down
operating mode.
AUTOSTICK - Sequential
mode
The Autostick mode (sequential shift), in
which the driver can decide when to
shift gear, is recommended in some
specific driving conditions, such as
when driving a heavily loaded car on a
gradient, in a strong headwind or when
towing a heavy trailer.
In these conditions, using a lower gear
improves vehicle performance and
prolongs the transmission's life, limiting
gearshifting and preventing overheating.
It is possible to shift from position D
(Drive) to the sequential mode
regardless of car speed.
Activation
With gear lever in position D (Drive), to
activate the sequential drive mode,
move the lever to the left (– and +

STARTING AND DRIVING

Gearshifting is made by moving the
gear lever forwards, towards symbol –
or backwards, towards symbol +.
Deactivation
To deactivate the sequential driving
mode, bring the gear lever back to
position D (Drive), automatic mode.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Engine start-up is allowed only with the
gear lever in P or N position.
Therefore, on starting the engine, the
system will be in the N or P position
(the latter corresponds to neutral, but
with the car wheels mechanically
locked).
MOVING THE CAR
To move the car, from P press the brake
pedal and, using the button on the gear
lever, move the lever to the desired
position (D, R or "Sequential mode").
The display will show the gear engaged.
When the brake pedal is released, the
car starts moving forwards or
backwards, as soon as the manoeuvre
is activated ("creeping" effect). The
accelerator should not be pressed in
this case.
IMPORTANT The inconsistency
between the speed actually engaged
(shown on the display) and the position
of the gear lever is indicated by theletter corresponding to the position of
the gear lever flashing on the panel
(also accompanied by an acoustic
warning). This condition should not be
interpreted as an operational fault, but
simply as a request by the system to
repeat the manoeuvre.
GEAR ENGAGEMENT
DISABLE
This system prevents you from moving
the shift lever from the P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position if you have not
pressed the brake pedal first. With the
start switch in the MAR position (engine
on or off):
to move the shift lever to a position
other than P (Park) or from N to R, you
must press the brake pedal and the
button 1 fig. 118 on the shift lever knob;
to move the lever from the N
position to the D position, you must
press the brake pedal.
In the event of a fault or when the
vehicle battery is flat, the lever remains
locked in the P position. To manually
release the lever, see the "Dual clutch
automatic transmission - Releasing the
lever" paragraph in the "In an
emergency" chapter.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Versions equipped with key without
remote control: this function requires
the gear lever to be positioned at P
(Park) before extracting the key from the
ignition device. If the car battery is flat
and the ignition key is engaged, the
latter is locked in position. To remove
the key manually see the "Dual-clutch
automatic transmission - Key removal"
paragraph in the "In an emergency"
chapter.
Versions with a Stop/Start system:
in order to switch off the engine, the
vehicle needs to be stopped by
applying appropriate pressure on the
brake pedal. If the pressure is not
sufficient, the engine will not switch off.
This feature can be exploited so that
the engine does not switch off in
particular traffic conditions.
"RECOVERY"
FUNCTIONS
In case of a gear lever failure, the
instrument panel display could show a
dedicated message recommending that
the driver continues driving without
shifting the lever to the P position.
In this case, the transmission will
maintain the forward gear (with reduced
performance) even if the lever is shifted
toRorN.
115

NOTE The engine can only be stopped
automatically after exceeding a speed
of about 10 km/h. The
warning light
on the instrument panel switches on to
signal that the engine was stopped.
Restarting the engine
Versions with manual transmission
To restart the engine, press the clutch
pedal or the accelerator pedal.
If the car does not start when the clutch
is pressed, place the gear lever in
neutral and repeat the procedure. If the
problem persists, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
Versions with automatic
