2019 FIAT FIORINO ignition

16)There must therefore always be
enough petrol in the tank to protect the
petrol pump and to guarantee temporary
switching from methane to petrol
operation, if high performance is required.
17)If the engine fails to start with a gear
engaged, the potentially dangerous
situation due to the fact that the gearbox is
automatically placed in neutral will be
signalled by a buzzer.
18)Never, under any circumstances, jump
start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill. This could cause fuel to
flow into the catalytic converter and
damage it beyond repair.
19)A quick burst on the accelerator before
stopping the engine serves no practical
purpose; it wastes fuel and is especially
damaging to turbocharged engines.HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever fig. 104 is located
between the two front seats.
Handbrake engagement:
Pull lever upwards until the vehicle is
secured. The warning light
comes
on with the key at MAR.
Handbrake disengagement:
slightly raise lever A and hold button B
pressed, checking that the
warning
light switches off in the instrument
panel.

WARNING
98)Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle. Always remove the ignition key
when leaving the vehicle and take it out
with you.
99)The vehicle should be secured after
several clicks of the lever. If it is not,
contact a Fiat Dealership to have it
adjusted.
100)In the case of parking manoeuvres on
roads on a gradient, the front wheels
must be steered towards the pavement
(when parking downhill), or in the opposite
direction if the vehicle is parked uphill. If
the vehicle is parked on a steep slope, it is
advisable to block the wheels with a wedge
or stone.

STARTING AND DRIVING

PARKING THE
VEHICLE
101)
Proceed as follows when parking and
leaving the vehicle:
engage a gear (1stgear 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.
If the vehicle is parked on a steep
slope, it is advisable to block the
wheels with a wedge or stone.
Do not leave the key in the MAR
position to prevent the battery from
running down.
Versions with COMFORT-MATIC
transmission
To park safely, keeping a foot on the
brake pedal, the 1
stor reverse (R) gear
must be engaged and, in case of
parking uphills/downhills, the
handbrake must be engaged.
IMPORTANT NEVER leave the vehicle
with the transmission in neutral (N)
or, on versions equipped with automatic
(Comfort matic) transmission, before
putting the shift lever in thePposition.IMPORTANT NOTES
With the vehicle stationary and a
gear engaged, always keep the brake
pedal pressed until you decide to
set off, then release the brake and
accelerate gently;
during prolonged stops with the
engine running, it is advisable to keep
the gearbox in neutral (N);
In order to safeguard the efficiency
of the clutch, do not use the
accelerator to keep the vehicle
stationary (e.g. when stopped on an
incline);
the clutch could overheat and be
damaged; use the brake pedal and only
operate the accelerator pedal when
you decide to set off;
only use second gear when you
need greater control for starting
manoeuvres on surfaces with poor grip;
if, with reverse gear (R) engaged,
you have to engage first gear or vice
versa, only do this when the vehicle is
completely stationary and with the
brake pedal pressed;
although it is strongly inadvisable, if
you are driving downhill and, for
unexpected reasons, you let the vehicle
move forward with the transmission in
neutral (N), when you engage a gear,
the system will automatically engage
the best gear to transmit the correct
drive torque to the wheels depending
on the vehicle's speed;
WARNING
101)Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Always remove the ignition key
when leaving the vehicle and take it out
with you.

SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through
the Start&Stop system, if the driver
unfastens his/her seat belt and opens
the driver's door or the passenger door,
the engine can be restarted only by
using the key. The driver is notified of
this condition by a buzzer, through the
instrument panel warning light fig.
115 flashing and, where provided, by a
message in the display.
VEHICLE INACTIVITY
In the event of vehicle inactivity, special
attention must be paid to the
disconnection of the battery power
supply. Proceed as follows: detach the
connector A fig. 116 (by pressing
button B) from battery status
monitoring sensor C installed on the
negative battery pole D. This sensor
should never be disconnected from the
pole except if the battery is replaced.IMPORTANT After turning the ignition
key to STOP, wait at least 1 minute
before disconnecting the electrical
supply to the battery.

WARNING
106)Before opening the bonnet, make
sure that the vehicle is switched off and
the key is in the OFF position. Please follow
the instructions on the decal near the
front crossmember. It is advisable to
extract the key when there are other
people in the vehicle.
107)The vehicle should always be
evacuated after the key has been removed
or turned to the OFF position. When
refuelling, make sure that the car is
switched off with the key in the OFF
position.108)For vehicles with robotised gearbox,
in the event of automatic engine stopping
with the car on a slope, the engine should
be restarted by moving the gear lever
towards (+) or (-) without releasing the
brake pedal. For vehicles with robotised
gearbox and Hill Holder function, in the
event of automatic engine stopping with
the car on a slope, the engine must be
restarted by moving the gear lever towards
(+) or (-) without releasing the brake pedal,
so that the Hill Holder function, active
only with the engine running, becomes
available.
109)If the climate comfort is to be
favoured, the Start&Stop system can be
deactivated, for a continuous operation of
the climate control system.
110)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. Replace
the battery with a new one of the same
type and specifications.115F0T0425

REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
111)
25) 26)
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only, with an
octane number (R.O.N.) not lower than
95.
IMPORTANT Never introduce leaded
petrol to the tank, even in small
amounts in an emergency, as this
would damage the catalytic converter
beyond repair.
DIESEL ENGINES
Only use Diesel for motor vehicles
(EN590 specification).
Operation at low temperatures
In order to avoid these problems,
different types of diesel are distributed
according to the season: summer type,
winter type and arctic type (cold/
mountain areas).If refuelling with diesel whose
specifications are not suitable for the
usage temperature, it is advisable
to mix PETRONAS DURANCE DIESEL
ART additive in the proportions shown
on the container with the fuel. Pour
the additive into the tank before the
fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle for a
long time in the mountains or cold
areas, it is advisable to refuel using
locally available diesel fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over 50% full.
REFUELLING CAPACITY
To ensure that you fill the tank
completely, top up twice after the first
click of the fuel supply gun. Further
top-ups could cause faults in the fuel
feeding system.
FUEL TANK CAPOpening
1) Open the flap A fig. 117 by pulling it
outwards, keep the cap B fig. 117
still, insert the ignition key in the lock
and turn it anticlockwise.
2) Turn the cap anticlockwise and
remove it.
The cap has a device C fig. 117 that
attaches it to the flap so it cannot
be lost. When refilling, attach the plug
to the flap, as shown.
Closing
1) Fit the cap (complete with key) and
turn it clockwise until it clicks once
or more.
2) Turn the key clockwise and extract it,
then close the flap.
The sealing may cause a slight pressure
increase in the tank. A little breathing
off, while slackening the cap is
absolutely normal.
TOPPING UP ADBLUE
®
DIESEL EMISSIONS
ADDITIVE (UREA)
Preliminary conditions
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures
lower than -11°C. If the vehicle stands
for a long time at this temperature refill-
ing could be difficult. For this reason, it
is advised to park the vehicle in a
garage and/or heated environment and
wait for the UREA to return to liquid
state before topping up.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Proceed as follows:
park the vehicle on ground level;
stop the engine by turning the
ignition device to MAR;
open the bonnet by pulling the lever
under the dashboard on driver's side
(see "Engine bonnet" paragraph in the
"Knowing your car" chapter) and
remove the cap A (blue) fig. 118 from
theAdBlue® filler.
Refilling with nozzles
The system was designed in
compliance with ISO 22241-5 (nozzle
capacity: 10 l/min.). Refilling at stations
with higher flow rates is possible, but
the nozzle could shut off and the
amount introduced into the tank may
vary.Proceed as follows:
insert theAdBlue® nozzle in the
filler A fig. 118, start refilling and stop
refilling at the first shut-off (the shut-off
indicates that theAdBlue® tank is full).
Do not proceed with the refilling, to pre-
vent spillage ofAdBlue®;
extract the nozzle.
Refilling with containers
Proceed as follows:
check the expiration date;
read the advice for use on the label
before pouring the content of the bottle
into theAdBlue® tank;
if systems which cannot be screwed
in (e.g. tanks) are used for refilling,
after the indication appears on
the instrument panel display (see
“Warning lights and messages"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter), fill the
AdBlue® tank with no more than
litres;
if containers which can be screwed
to the filler are used, the reservoir is
full when theAdBlue® level in the con-
tainer stops pouring out. Do not pro-
ceed further.Operations after refilling
Proceed as follows:
fit the cap A fig. 118 back on the
AdBlue® filler by turning it clockwise
and screwing it completely;
set the ignition device to MAR (it is
not necessary to start the engine);
wait for the indication on the
instrument panel to switch off before
moving the vehicle. The indication may
stay on for a few seconds to
approximately half a minute. If the
engine is started and the vehicle is
moved, the indication will remain on for
longer. This will not compromise engine
operation;
if theAdBlue® was topped up
when the tank was empty, see the
“Refuelling ” paragraph in the “Technical
Specifications” chapter and wait for 2
minutes before starting the engine.
IMPORTANT IfAdBlue® spills out of
the filler neck, clean up well the area
and proceed to filling up again. If the
liquid crystallises, eliminate it with a
sponge and warm water.A
