2018 FIAT TIPO 5DOORS STATION WAGON service

Dear Customer,
We would like to congratulate and thank you for choosing a Fiat.
We have written this handbook to help you get to know all the features of your vehicle and use it in the best possible way.
Here you will find information, advice and important warnings regarding use of your vehicle and how to achieve the best
performance from its technical features.
You are advised to read it right through before taking to the road for the first time, to become familiar with the controls and
above all with those concerning brakes, steering and gearbox; at the same time, you can understand the vehicle behaviour on
different road surfaces.
This document also provides a description of special features and tips, as well as essential information for the safe driving, care
and maintenance of your vehicle over time.
After reading it, you are advised to keep the handbook inside the vehicle, for an easy reference and for making sure it remains
on board the vehicle should it be sold.
In the attached Warranty Booklet you will also find a description of the Services that Fiat offers to its customers, the Warranty
Certificate and the detail of the terms and conditions for maintaining its validity.
We are sure that these will help you to get in touch with and appreciate your new vehicle and the service provided by the
people at Fiat.
Enjoy reading. Happy motoring!

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions.
For this reason, Fiat has planned a
series of checks and services at fixed
distance and/or time intervals, as
described in the Service Schedule.
To keep the car’s efficiency in tip-top
condition, in the following Scheduled
Service plan pages a few additional
checks are listed that should be carried
out more frequently with respect to the
normal coupon redemption schedule.
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all
Fiat Dealerships according to fixed time
or kilometres/miles intervals. If, during
each operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may be
carried out with the owner's explicit
agreement only. If your car is used
frequently for towing, the interval
between one scheduled servicing
operation and the next should be
reduced.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Scheduled Servicing interventions are
set out by the Manufacturer. Failure to
comply with the schedule may
invalidate the warranty.We advise sharing any doubts
regarding the proper operation of the
car with your Fiat Dealership, before
waiting for the next coupon redemption.

SERVICING AND CARE

Raising the windscreen wiper
blades ("Service position" function)
The "Service position" function allows
the driver to replace the windscreen
wiper blades more easily, protecting
them from snow.
Function activation
To activate this function disable the
windscreen wiper (ring nut 1 fig. 215 in
position
) before setting the ignition
device to STOP.
This function can only be activated
within 2 minutes of setting the ignition
device to STOP.
To activate this function, move the lever
upwards (unstable position) for at least
half a second.
Each time the function is activated
correctly, the wiper blades move to
signal the correct reception of the
command.The command can be repeated up to a
maximum of the three times. The fourth
repetition of the command deactivates
the function.
If, after using the function, the ignition
device is set back to MAR with the
blades in a position other than rest
position (at the base of the windscreen),
they will only return to rest position
following a command given using the
stalk (stalk upwards, into unstable
position) or when a speed of 5 km/h is
exceeded.
Function deactivation
The function is deactivated if:
2 minutes have passed since the
ignition device was set to STOP;
the ignition device is set to MAR and
the blades are in rest position;
the command for the function is
repeated four times.
Replacing the windscreen wiper
blades
Proceed as follows:
raise the wiper arm, press button 1
fig. 216 of the attachment spring and
remove the blade from the arm;
fit the new blade, inserting the tab in
the dedicated housing in the arm and
checking that it is locked;
lower the wiper arm onto the
windscreen.
IMPORTANT Do not operate the
windscreen wiper with the blades lifted
from the windscreen.
Replacing the rear window wiper
blade
Proceed as follows:
widen the two tabs as shown by the
arrows and rotate cover 1
fig. 217 outwards;
undo nut 2 and remove arm 3 from
the central pin;
correctly align the new arm;
fully tighten nut 2 and then reclose
cover 1.

IMPORTANT
78)It is recommended to have the vehicle
serviced by a Fiat Dealership. When
carrying out normal periodic operations and
small servicing interventions personally on
the vehicle, it is recommended to use
suitable equipment, genuine spare parts
and the necessary fluids. Do not carry out
any interventions if you don't have the
necessary experience.
79)Incorrect servicing of the vehicle or
failure to carry out operations or repairs
(when necessary) may lead to more
expensive repairs, damage to other
components or have a negative impact on
the vehicle performance. Have any
malfunction inspected immediately by a Fiat
Dealership.
80)The vehicle is equipped with fluids
which are optimised or protecting its
performance and life and extending service
intervals. Do not use chemicals for washing
these components since they may damage
the engine, the gearbox or the climate
control system. This damage is not covered
by the vehicle’s warranty. If any component
needs to be washed due to malfunctioning,
use only the specific liquid for that
procedure.
81)An excessive or insufficient amount of
oil inside the base is extremely damaging to
the engine. Make sure it is always at an
adequate level.82)Always require the use of only
compressor coolants and lubricants
approved and suitable for the specific air
conditioning system fitted on the vehicle.
Some non-approved coolants are
flammable and may explode, with the risk
of injuries. The use of non-approved
coolants or lubricants may adversely affect
system efficiency, leading to expensive
repairs.
83)The air conditioner system contains
coolant under high pressure: to avoid
injuries to people or damage to the system,
any coolant addition or repair that requires
to disconnect the cables must be carried
out by a Fiat Dealership.
84)Vehicles equipped with catalytic
converter must be fuelled only with
unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol would
permanently damage the catalytic
converter and eliminate its ability to reduce
polluting emissions, seriously
compromising the engine performance,
which would be irreparably damaged. If the
engine does not work correctly, especially if
it starts irregularly or if there is a reduction
of its performance, immediately go to a Fiat
Dealership. Prolonged and faulty operation
of the engine may cause overheating of the
converter and, as a consequence, possible
damage to the converter and the vehicle.
85)Using a gearbox fluid different from that
approved may compromise gearshifting
quality and/or cause vibration of the
gearbox itself.
LIFTING THE
VEHICLE
If the vehicle needs to be jacked up, go
to a Fiat Dealership, which is equipped
with shop jacks and jack arms.
The vehicle lifting points are marked on
the side panels with the
symbols
(see illustration in fig. 220 ).
