2020 FIAT TIPO 5DOORS STATION WAGON parking brake

Warning on display
The indications regarding the Park
Assist system are shown only if the
"Acoustic signal and display" item in the
"Settings" menu of theUconnect™ 5"
or7" HDsystem (where provided) was
previously selected (for more
information, see the description in the
dedicated chapter).
The system indicates the presence of
an obstacle by displaying a single arc in
one of the possible areas, in
accordance with the distance of the
object and the position in relation to the
vehicle. A single arc which is firstly fixed
and then blinks will appear as the
distance from the obstacle reduces in
addition to an acoustic tone firstly in
rapid sequence and then continual.
FAULT INDICATION
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be
indicated when reverse is engaged by
the switching on of the
symbol on
the instrument panel together with the
message on the display (see
description in the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter).
OPERATION WITH A
TRAILER
The operation of the sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electrical connection is inserted
in the car's tow hook socket.
Sensors are reactivated on removing
the trailer's electrical connection.
IMPORTANT NOTES
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above or
under the sensor. Objects close to the
car are not detected under certain
circumstances and could therefore
cause damage to the car or be
damaged.
Some conditions may influence the
performance of the parking system:
reduced sensor sensitivity and a
reduction in the parking assistance
system performance could be due to
the presence of: ice, snow, mud, paint,
etc. on the surface of the sensor;
the sensor may detect a non-existent
obstacle ("echo interference") due to
mechanical interference, for example
when washing the vehicle, in rain
(strong wind), hail;
the signals sent by the sensor can
also be altered by the presence of
ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brake systems of trucks or pneumatic
drills) near the vehicle;
parking assistance system
performance can also be influenced by
the position of the sensors, for example
due to a change in the ride setting
(caused by wear to the shock
absorbers, suspension), or by changing
tyres, overloading the car or fitting
specific trims that require the car to be
lowered;
the correct interaction of the system
with tow hooks not made by Fiat is not
guaranteed;
the presence of adhesives on the
sensors. Therefore, take care not to
place stickers on the sensors.
the presence of a tow hook without
trailer interferes with the correct
operation of the parking sensors. If a
fixed tow hook is installed, the sensors
cannot be used. If the customer installs
a removable tow hook, it should be
disconnected from the crossmember
whenever the trailer is not attached to
prevent the activation of the sensors.

STARTING AND DRIVING

IMPORTANT NOTES
IMPORTANT In some circumstances,
such as with ice, snow or mud on the
surface of the camera, the camera
sensitivity may be reduced.
IMPORTANT When parking, take the
utmost care over obstacles that may be
above or under the camera range.
WARNING
133)Parking and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,
always the driver’s responsibility. While
carrying out these manoeuvres, always
make sure that no people (especially
children) or animals are in the area
concerned. The camera is an aid for the
driver, but the driver must never allow
his/her attention to lapse during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres, even those
executed at low speeds. Always keep a
slow speed, so as to promptly brake in the
case of obstacles.
IMPORTANT
60)It is vital, for correct operation, that the
camera is always kept clean and free from
any mud, dirt, snow or ice. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the camera while
cleaning it. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The camera must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. In washing stations
which use steam or high-pressure jets,
clean the camera quickly, keeping the
nozzle more than 10 cm away from the
sensors. Also, do not apply stickers to the
camera.
TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
134) 135)
For towing caravans or trailers the
vehicle must be fitted with an approved
tow hook and an adequate electrical
system. Should aftermarket installation
be requested, this must be carried out
by specialists.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that, when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
distances increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight
of the trailer.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight the trailer exerts on the
vehicle tow hook reduces the vehicle's
loading capacity by the same amount.
To make sure that the maximum
towable weight is not exceeded (given
in the vehicle registration document)
account should be taken of the fully
laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.

BRAKES
The vehicle is provided with four
mechanical wear detectors for brake
pads, one for each wheel assembly (for
versions with disc brakes on all wheels)
and two mechanical wear detectors
only on the front brakes (for versions
with drum brakes on the rear wheels).
When the brake linings are close to
wearing out, pressing the brake pedal
will generate a slight squeal: this lasts
for about 100 km (the mileage varies
with the driving style and route).
In this case, it is still possible to
continue driving, with caution.
However, contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible to have the worn
brake pads changed.
BODY
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paint
88)
6)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Maintenance of paintwork consists of
washing the car: the frequency
depends on the conditions and
environment where the car is used. For
example, it is advisable to wash the
vehicle more often in areas with high
levels of atmospheric pollution or salted
roads.
Some parts of the vehicle may be
covered with a matt paint which, in
order to be maintained intact, requires
special care: see the instructions in the
warning at the end of this paragraph
89)
To correctly wash the vehicle, follow
these instructions:
if the vehicle is washed remove the
aerial from the roof;
if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, keep a
distance of at least 40 cm from the
bodywork to avoid damage or
alteration. Build up of water could
cause damage to the vehicle in the long
term;
wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water if possible;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing the sponge;
rinse well with water and dry with a
jet of air or a chamois leather.
Dry the less visible parts (e.g. door
frames, bonnet, headlight frames, etc.)
with special care, as water may
stagnate more easily in these areas. Do
not wash the car after it has been left in
the sun or with the bonnet hot: this may
alter the shine of the paintwork.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned
in the same way as the rest of the
vehicle.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Avoid parking under trees; the resin
dropped by trees makes the paintwork
go opaque and increases the possibility
of corrosion.
Bird droppings must be washed off
immediately and thoroughly as the acid
they contain is particularly aggressive.
