This Owner Handbook describes all Fiat Punto versions. As a consequence, you should consider only the information which is related to the engine and bodywork version of the car you purchased.

MUST BE READ!

REFUELLING

Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95.

Diesel engines: only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590. Using other products or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and cause the forfeiture of the warranty cover for caused damages as a consequence.

ENGINE STARTING

Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.

Diesel engines: turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the 📂 and 00 warning lights to go off; turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.

PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL

While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the car over grass, dry leaves, pine needles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.

RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

A system for continuously monitoring emission system components to ensure greater environmental protection is fitted in your car.

ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES

If, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical accessories (that will gradually drain the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the car's electric system can support the required load.

CODE card

Keep the code card in a safe place, not in the car. You should always keep the electronic code written on the CODE card with you in case you need to carry out an emergency start-up procedure.

SCHEDULED SERVICING

Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring it stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its safety features, its environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.

SYMBOLS

Special coloured labels have been attached near or actually on some of the components of your Fiat Punto. These labels bear symbols that remind you of the precautions to be taken as regards that particular component.

The plate summarising the symbols used can be found under the bonnet.

THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM

To further protect you car from theft, it has been fitted with an engine immobilising system. This system is automatically activated when the ignition key is removed.

An electronic device, in fact, is fitted in each ignition key grip. The device transmits a radio-frequency signal when the engine is started through a special aerial built into the ignition switch. The modulate signal, which changes each time the engine is started, is the password by means of which the control unit recognises the key and enables to start the engine.

OPERATION

Each time the car is started turning the ignition key to MAR, the Fiat CODE system control unit sends a recognition code to the engine control unit to deactivate the inhibitor.

The code is sent only if the Fiat CODE system control unit has recognised the code transmitted from the key.

Each time the ignition key is turned to the STOP position, the Fiat CODE system deactivates the functions of the engine electronic control unit.

F01007Sm

At starting, if the code has not been recognised correctly, the warning light will come on.

In this case, the key should be moved to the STOP position and then back to MAR; if the lock continues, possibly try again with the other key provided with the car. If it is still not possible to start the car, follow the instructions given in chapter “In an emergency” and then contact a Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT Every key has its own code, which must be memorised by the system control unit. To memorise new keys, up to a maximum of eight, apply to Fiat Dealership.

Warning light 📋 coming on when driving

☐ If the warning light 📁 turns on, this means that the system is running a self-test (for example for a voltage drop). At the first stop, turn the ignition key to STOP and then to MAR again: if no failure is detected warning light 📁 will not come on.
☐ If the warning light 📋 stays on, repeat the procedure described previously leaving the key at STOP for over 30 seconds. Should the inconvenience persists, contact a Fiat Dealership.
☐ If the warning light 📋 stays on this means that the code has not been recognised. In this case, the key should be moved to the STOP position and then back to MAR; if the lock continues, possibly try again with the other key provided with the car. If it is still not possible to start the car, follow the instruction given in chapter “In an emergency” and then contact a Fiat Dealership.

The electronic components inside the key may be damaged if the key is submitted to sharp knocks.

THE KEYS

CODE CARD

The car is delivered with two copies of the key and the CODE card which bears the following:

☐ the electronic code (A) to be used for emergency starting (see "Emergency starting" in section "Correct use of the car")
☐ the mechanical key code (B) to be given to the Fiat Dealership when ordering duplicate keys.

Make sure you have the electronic code (A) with you at all times in the event you have to perform an emergency start-up.

IMPORTANT In order to ensure perfect efficiency of the electronic devices contained inside the keys, they should never be exposed to direct sunlight.

Used batteries are harmful to the environment. They should be disposed of as specified by law in the special containers provided, or take them to a Fiat Dealership, which will deal with their disposal.

A F010035m

IGNITION SWITCH

The key can be turned to 4 different positions:

☐ STOP: engine off, key can be removed, steering column locked. Certain electrical devices (e.g.: sound system, power windows, etc.) can work.
☐ MAR: driving position. All electrical devices are powered.
□ AVV: engine starting.
☐ PARK: engine off, parking lights on, steering column locked. To turn the key to PARK, press button (A).

The ignition switch is fitted with a safety mechanism that, in the event the engine is not started, turns back the ignition key to STOP before repeating the starting operation.

WARNING

If the ignition device is tampered with (e.g.: attempted theft), have it checked over by a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING

When getting out of the car, always remove the key to prevent any occupants from accidentally activating the controls. Remember to engage the handbrake. If the car is parked on uphill slope to engage the first gear. If the car is facing downhill, engage the reverse gear. Never leave unsupervised children in the car.

INSTRUMENTS

Instrument background and type can change according to versions.

SPEEDOMETER (SPEED INDICATOR)

It indicates the car speed.

REV. COUNTER

The rev. counter shows engine rpm. The needle pointed to the danger area (red on certain versions) indicates excessive high engine speed. Do not drive for long periods with the needle in this area.

IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system gradually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine is "over-revving" resulting in a gradual loss of engine power.

When the engine is idling, the rev counter may indicate a gradual or sudden highering of the speed.

This is normal as it takes place during normal operation, for example when activating the climate control system or the fan. In particular a slow change in the speed preserves the battery charge.

FUEL LEVEL GAUGE

The needle indicates the amount of fuel left in the tank. The reserve warning light (A) turns on (on certain versions together with the message shown on the reconfigurable multifunction display) to indicate that 5 to 7 litres of fuel are left in the tank.

E - tank empty.

F - tank full (see contents of "At the filling station" paragraph in this chapter).

Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty: the gaps in fuel delivery could damage the catalyst.

IMPORTANT If the needle reaches the (E) with warning light (A) flashing this means that there is a failure. Contact a Fiat Dealership.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE

This shows the temperature of the engine coolant fluid and begins working when the fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50°C.

Under normal conditions, the needle should hover around the middle of the scale according to the working conditions.

C - low engine coolant temperature.

H - excessive engine coolant temperature.

The turning on of the warning light (B) (on certain versions together with the message shown on the reconfigurable multifunction display) indicates that the coolant fluid temperature is too high; in this case, stop the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.

F E A B H C F010041m

If the needle reaches the red area, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.

This lasts few seconds: if no faults are detected, when the engine has started, the display shows the “Check OK” message. See section “Warning lights and messages” if faults are found.

The “Service schedule” includes vehicle maintenance every 20,000 km (or 12,000 mi) or every year; this is shown automatically, with the ignition key at MAR, starting from 2,000 km (or 1,240 miles) or 30 days from this deadline and it is shown again every 200 km (or 124 mi) or 3 days. For 1.3 Multijet versions, see “Care and Maintenance” in section “Service schedule to change engine oil and filter and air cleaner. Below 200 km service indications are proposed at shorter intervals. Below 200 km service indications are proposed at shorter intervals. Service intervals will be displayed in km or mi according to the unit set. When a programmed maintenance interval (coupon) is near to come, turning the ignition key to MAR, will display the message “Service” followed by the number of km, or days to go before car servicing. “Scheduled servicing” message is displayed in km, miles or days according to the approaching service interval. Contact a Fiat Dealership to carry out any service operation provided by the “Service schedule” or “Annual inspection plan”, and to reset the display.

MENU DESCRIPTION

The menu comprises a series of functions arranged in a “circular fashion” which can be selected through buttons + and - for access to the different select operations and settings (see examples “Lang.” and “Date adjustm.” below); for further details, also refer to “Access to menu screen” on next page.

ACCESS TO MENU SCREEN

After the "Initial check", it is possible to access the menu screen pressing the button MODE 1.

To surf the menu press buttons + or -.

IMPORTANT If after entering the menu no setting/adjustment is performed within 60 seconds, the system exits the menu automatically and returns to previously displayed screen. In this case the last selected but not confirmed setting (through button MODE 1) is not stored and therefore the operation shall be repeated (this stands valid also when quitting the Menu by pressing the MODE 2 button).

When the car is running, it is possible to access only the reduced menu (for setting "Speed limit").

When the car is stationary access to the whole menu is enabled.

The following diagram shows the cases described.

Range to empty = shows the distance in km (or miles) that the car can still cover before needing fuel, assuming that driving conditions are kept unvaried. The display will show “- - - -” in the following cases:

☐ range lower than 50 km. In this event “- - - -” are preceded by message “Warning Limited Range” (this message will be displayed even if not in Trip Computer mode);
☐ car parked with engine running for long time; when restarting range indication will be displayed again.

Distance travelled = shows the km (or miles) covered from the start of the new mission (*).

Average consumption = shows the average consumption calculated from the start of the new mission (*); this value can be expressed in km/l or l/100 km or in mpg.

Instant consumption = shows fuel consumption variation, this value is updated constantly. If the car is parked with engine running the display will show “- - - -”. When restarting the car, the instant consumption indication will be displayed again.

Average speed = shows the average speed of the car in relation with total time elapsed from the start of the new mission (*).

Trip time = time elapsed from the start of the new mission (*).

(*) New mission = starts from last reset:

• “manual” reset is performed by the driver by pressing the relevant button (see paragraph “Control buttons”)
• “automatic” reset is performed when the Distance travelled reaches 9999.9 km or when Trip Time reaches 99:59 (99 hours and 59 minutes)
  – after reconnecting the battery.

IMPORTANT Lacking information, Trip computer values are displayed with “- - - -”. When restoring normal operating conditions after a failure, calculation will restart regularly without resetting either previous displayed values or the start of a new mission (*).

IMPORTANT After disconnecting/reconnecting the battery, certain displayed values will be equal to “- - - -” until significant data for recalculation are available.

"Smart washing" function

Pulling the stalk towards the steering wheel (unstable position) operates the windscreen washer; indeed, the latter comes into action automatically if the stalk is pulled for more than half a second.

The wiper stops working three strokes after releasing the stalk. On certain versions a further “cleaning stroke”, after a few seconds, completes the wiping operation.

Operating the stalk quickly and repeatedly (for less than half a second) it is possible to wet the windscreen several times without operating the wiper.

Never use the window wiper to remove ice or snow from the windscreen. In these conditions, the wiper is submitted to excessive effort that results in motor protection cutting in and wiper operation inhibition for few seconds as a consequence. If operation is not restored contact Fiat Dealership.

RAIN SENSOR (where provided)

The rain sensor is behind the driving mirror in contact with the windscreen and has the purpose of automatically adjust, during the intermittent operation, the frequency of the windscreen wiper strokes as to the rain intensity.

The sensor has a range of adjustment that gradually varies between wiper stationary (no wiping) when the windscreen is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed (continuous slow) with heavy rain.

Activation

Move the right-hand stalk downwards by one position.

The activation of the rain sensor is signalled by a control acquisition "stroke".

IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the sensor area.

Turning the knurled ring (F) it is possible to increase the sensitivity of the rain sensor, obtaining a quicker change from stationary (no wiping) when the windscreen is dry, to first continuous speed (continuous, slow).

The increase of the sensitivity of the rain sensor is signalled by a control and acquisition "cycle".

Operating the windscreen washer with the rain sensor activated the normal washing cycle is performed at the end of which the rain sensor resumes its normal automatic function.

Deactivation

Turn the ignition key to STOP.

At the following starting operation (key at MAR), the sensor will not be reactivated even is the stalk is on (B). In this event, to activate the rain sensor, you have to move the stalk to (A) or (C) and then again to (B).

When the rain sensor is again activated in this way, at least one windscreen wiper stroke occurs, even if the windscreen is dry.

The rain sensor is able to recognize and automatically adjust itself in the presence of the following particular conditions:

☐ impurities on the controlled surface (salt, dirt, etc.);
□ straks of water caused by worn wiper blades;
□ difference between day and night.

Do not activate the rain sensor when washing the car in an automatic washing station.

In the event of ice on the windscreen, make sure to have disconnected the device.

WARNING

Make sure the device is off when cleaning the windscreen.

REAR WINDOW WASH/WIPE FUNCTION

This device can only work when the ignition key is at MAR.

To switch the rear window wiper on, turn the knurled ring from ⭕ to ☐. To wash the window push the stalk towards the dashboard.

On certain versions the rear window and windscreen wiping strokes are synchronised.

"Smart washing" function

On certain versions, pulling the stalk towards the dashboard, with just one movement it is possible to operate the washer jet and the wiper at the same time; indeed, the latter comes into action automatically if the stalk is pulled for more than half a second.

The wiper stops working three strokes after releasing the stalk. On certain versions a further “cleaning stroke”, after a few seconds, completes the wiping operation.

HEADLIGHT WASHERS

They are activated automatically when the windscreen washer is operated with dipped beam headlights or main beam headlights on.

IMPORTANT Regularly check that the spray jets are intact and clean.

Never use the rear window wiper to remove ice or snow from the rear window. In these conditions, the wiper is submitted to excessive effort that results in motor protection cutting in and wiper operation inhibition for few seconds as a consequence. If operation is not restored contact Fiat Dealership.

☐ engage the gear selected at the time of speed memorising (4th or 5th or 6th gear);
☐ press the RES button (C).

TO INCREASE THE MEMORISED SPEED

The speed memorised can be increased in two ways:

☐ pressing the accelerator and then memorising the new speed reached;
or
☐ momentaneously turning the ring (B) to (+).

Each pulse of the ring will correspond to a slight increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while pressing continuously will correspond to a continuous speed increase.

TO REDUCE MEMORISED SPEED

The speed memorised can be increased in two ways:

☐ disengaging the device and then memorising the new speed;

or

☐ keeping the ring (B) pressed at (−) until reaching the new speed which will be memorised automatically.

Each pulse of the ring will correspond to a slight reduction in speed (about 1 km/h), while pressing continuously will correspond to a continuous speed reduction.

DEVICE DISENGAGEMENT

Turn the ring (A) to OFF or the ignition key to STOP. The device is automatically deactivated also in one of the following cases:

□ pressing the brake or clutch pedal;

IMPORTANT Never exceed the max. permissible loads (see section "Technical specifications").

HEADLIGHTS

ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHT BEAM

Proper adjustment of the headlight beams is of vital importance for your safety and comfort and also for the other road users. It is also a specific regulation of the road traffic code. To ensure you and other drivers have the best visibility conditions when travelling with the headlights on, the headlights must be set properly.

Contact Fiat Dealership to have the headlights properly adjusted.

Check beam aiming every time the load carried changes.

HEADLIGHT SLANT ADJUSTING DEVICE

The car is fitted with electric headlight slant adjusting device working with ignition key to MAR and dipped beams on.

When the car is loaded, it slopes backwards. This means that the headlight beam rises. In this case, it is necessary to return it to the correct position.

To adjust the headlight slant, proceed as follows:

☐ hold button (B) pressed to increase by one position (e.g.: 0 → 1,1 → 2,2 → 3);

☐ hold button (A) pressed to decrease by one position (e.g.: 3 → 2,2 → 1,1 → 0).

Each position increase corresponds to a beam slant lowering (laden car).

IMPORTANT Check beam aiming every time the load carried changes.

HEADLIGHT ADJUSTMENT ABROAD

The dipped beam headlights are adjusted for circulation in the country in which the vehicle is marketed. In countries with opposite circulation, to avoid glaring oncoming vehicles it is necessary to cover the areas of the headlight as shown below; this is done using non-transparent sticker tape.

Figures refer to passing from right-hand drive to left-hand drive.

ABS SYSTEM (where provided)

The car is fitted with an ABS braking system, which prevents the wheels from locking when braking, makes the most of road grip and gives the best control when emergency braking under difficult road conditions.

System is completed by EBD (Electronic Braking Force Distribution), which distributes the braking action between front and rear wheels.

If the ABS system cuts in it is a sign that the grip between the tyre and the road surface has reached the limit: you must slow down to match the speed to the road grip available.

IMPORTANT To have the maximum efficiency of the braking system, it is necessary a setting period of about 500 km: during this period, it is better to avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged brakes.

ABS INTERVENTION

When braking a slight pulsing accompanied by noise may be felt on the brake pedal due to the action of the ABS system.

WARNING

The ABS exploits the tyre-road grip at the best, but it cannot improve it; you should therefore take every care when driving on slippery surfaces without taking unnecessary risks.

WARNING

When the ABS cuts in, and you feel the brake pedal pulsating, do not remove your foot, but keep it pressed; in doing so you will stop in the shortest amount of space possible under the current road conditions.

FAILURE WARNINGS

ABS failure

If warning light (ABS) lights up together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where provided) (see section "Warning lights and messages") this indicates a fault in the ABS system.

In this case the braking system will still be effective, although without the anti-lock device. Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system checked.

EBD failure

If warning lights ( ^③ ) and (1) light up together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where provided) (see section “Warning lights and messages”) this indicates a fault in the EBD system.

In this case with sharp braking the rear wheels might lock too early, with the possibility of skidding. Drive extremely carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the system checked.

WARNING

If the warning light Ⓚ comes on together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display, stop the car immediately and contact the nearest Fiat Dealership. Fluid leaks from the hydraulic system, in fact, can compromise the braking system, both traditional systems and systems with ABS.

ESP SYSTEM (Electronic Stability Program) (where provided)

The ESP system is an electronic system controlling the car stability in the event of tyre grip loss.

The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when grip conditions of the road surfaces changes.

ABS INTERVENTION

It is signalled by the blinking of the warning light Ⓐ on the instrument panel, to inform the driver that the car is in critical stability and grip conditions.

The ESP system is automatically inserted when the car is started and cannot be de-activated.

FAILURE WARNINGS

In the event of failure, the ESP system is automatically disconnected and the instrument panel warning light Ⓐ will come on with fixed light together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where provided) (see section “Warning lights and messages”) and with the ASR OFF button led. In this case contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

HILL HOLDER SYSTEM (where provided)

It is an integral part of the ESP system and facilitates starting on an uphill slope. It is automatically activated in the following conditions:

☐ Uphill: vehicle stationary on a road with gradient above 2%, engine running, clutch and brake pedals pressed and gearbox in neutral position or gear engaged (reverse excluded);
☐ Downhill: stationary on a road with gradient above 2%, engine running, clutch and brake pedals pressed and reverse engaged.

WARNING

The performance of the ESP system, in terms of active safety should not induce the driver to take pointless and unnecessary risks. The style of driving must in any case always be adapted to the conditions of the road surface, visibility and traffic. Road safety is always the driver's responsibility.

At pickup, the ESP system control unit keeps braking power against wheels until reaching the engine torque required for starting (in any case for max. 2 seconds), thus enabling to move the right foot friendly from the brake pedal to the accelerator.

Passing 2 seconds without starting, the system will deactivate automatically and braking power will be gradually released. At release stage, typical mechanical brake release sound (indicating that the car is going to move) can be heard.

Failure warnings

System failure is indicated by warning light Ⓐ and relevant message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where required) (see section “Warning lights and messages”).

IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is not a parking brake therefore, never leave the car without having engaged the handbrake, turned the engine off and engaged the first speed.

WARNING

During the use of the spare wheel, the ESP system carries on working. However, you must remind that the spare wheel presents dimensions smaller than the standard tyre and therefore its grip is reduced as to the other car tyres.

WARNING

For correct operation of ESP and ASR systems, the tyres must absolutely be of the same brand and type on all wheels, in perfect conditions and, above all, of type, brand and size specified.

ASR SYSTEM (Antislip Regulation)

It's a function of ESP system and controls the vehicle drive and cuts in automatically every time one or both driving wheels slip.

In slipping conditions, two different control systems are activated:

☐ if the slipping involves both the driving wheels, the ASR function intervenes reducing the power transmitted by the engine;
☐ if the slipping involves only one driving wheel, the ASR system cuts in automatically braking the wheel that is slipping.

The action of the ASR is particularly helpful in the following circumstances:

☐ slipping of the inner wheel due to the effect of dynamic load changes or excessive acceleration;
□ too much power transmitted to the wheels also in relation to the conditions of the road surface;
□ acceleration on slippery, snowy or frozen surfaces;
☐ in the case of loss of grip on a wet surface (aquaplaning).

F010153m

SWITCHING ON/OFF OF THE ASR SYSTEM

The ASR function switches on automatically each time the engine is started.

When travelling the device can be switched off and on again pressing switch ASR OFF on the centre console.

Switching on is indicated by the relevant message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where provided) (see section “Warning lights and messages”).

When the device is switched off this is shown by the lighting up of the led on the ASR OFF button and by the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (see section "Warning lights and messages"). If the ASR function is switched off when travelling, it will turn on again automatically the next time the engine is started

When travelling on snow with snow chains, it may be helpful to turn the ASR device off: in fact, in these conditions, slipping of the driving wheels when moving off makes it possible to obtain better drive.

WARNING

The performance of the system, in terms of active safety should not induce the driver to take pointless and unnecessary risks. The style of driving must in any case always be adapted to the conditions of the road surface, visibility an traffic. Road safety is always the driver's responsibility.

EOBD SYSTEM

The EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis) allows continuos diagnosis of the components of the car correlated with emissions.

It also alerts the driver, by the turning on of the warning light ☐ on the instrument panel together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where required) (see section “Warning lights and messages”), when these conditions are no longer in peak conditions.

The objective is:

☐ to keep system efficiency under control;
□ warn when a fault causes emission levels to increase;
□ warn of the need to replace deteriorated components.

The system has a diagnostic connector that can be interfaced with appropriate tools, which makes it possible to read the error codes stored in the control unit, together with a series of specific parameters for engine operation and diagnosis. This check can also be performed by traffic controller agents.

IMPORTANT After eliminating the inconvenience, to check the system completely, Fiat Dealership is obliged to run a bench test and, if necessary, road tests which may also call for a long journey.

If turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning light ☐ does not turn on or if, while travelling it turns on glowing steadily or flashing together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where required), contact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible. Warning light operation can be checked by means of special equipment. Always comply with the traffic regulations in force in the country where you are travelling.

SOUND SYSTEM (where provided)

Large oddment compartments in the dashboard and doors which make the passenger compartment even more comfortable can be fond in cars not equipped with a sound system set-up.

A specific kit can be found in the Lineaccessori Fiat range for a "Sound system set-up" in the car.

As concerns sound systems consisting of radio with tapes player or Compact Disc/MP3 CD player (where provided), see the Supplement annexed to this Owner Handbook.

SOUND SYSTEM SET-UP (where provided)

ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER

If after buying the car, you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electric supply (alarm, satellite antitheft system, etc.) or accessories that in any case burden the electric supply, contact Fiat Dealership, whose qualified personnel, besides suggesting the most suitable devices belonging to Lineaccessori Fiat, will also evaluate the overall electric absorption, checking whether the car's electric system is able to withstand the load required, or whether it needs to be integrated with a more powerful battery.

INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC/ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Electric/electronic devices installed after buying the car or in aftermarket shall bear the and marking:

Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorizes the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialized shop, workmanlike performed and in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.

IMPORTANT Installation of devices resulting in modifications of car characteristics may cause driving license seizing by traffic agents and also the lapse of the warranty as concerns defects due to the abovementioned modification or traceable back to it directly or indirectly.

Fiat Auto S.p.A. declines all responsibility for damages caused by the installation of non-genuine accessories or not recommended by Fiat Auto S.p.A. and installed not in compliance with the specified requirements.

RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND CELLULAR TELEPHONES

Radio transceiver equipment (e.g.: e-tacs mobile phones, HAM radio systems and the like) shall not be used inside the vehicle unless a separate aerial is mounted on the roof.

IMPORTANT The use of similar devices inside the passenger compartment (without separated aerial) produces radio-frequency electromagnetic fields which, amplified by the resonance effects inside the passenger compartment, may cause electrical systems equipping the vehicle to malfunction. This could compromise safety in addition to constituting a potential hazard for the passengers.

In addition, transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body. As concerns EC-approved mobile phones (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly comply with the instructions for use provided by the mobile phone's manufacturer.

WARNING

Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy rims and non-standard wheel caps: they might reduce ventilation of the brakes, thus their efficiency, during abrupt and repeated braking, or long downhill slopes. Make sure that nothing (mats, etc.) gets in the way of the pedals when they are pushed down.

"DUALDRIVE" ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM (where provided)

The electric power steering only works when the ignition key is at MAR and the engine is running. A new electrically controlled power steering system called "Dualdrive" is fitted on the Fiat Punto that can be customised by the driver according to the driving conditions.

ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION (CITY function)

To connect/disconnect the CITY function, push the button located on the central tunnel.

Activation of this function is indicated by the word CITY on the instrument panel (see figures beside).

When the CITY function is on the steering wheel effort is lighter and thus parking operations are easier: therefore this function is particularly useful for driving in city centres.

Additionally, in Sporting versions, this function ensures a more comfortable drive by gradually dosing the accelerator pedal, suitably calibrated for acceleration and deceleration.

FAILURE WARNING LIGHTS

Any failure is indicated by cluster warning light Ⓤ coming on together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where required) (see section “Warning lights and messages”).

In the event of electric power steering system failure, the car can be driven with mechanical steering.

IMPORTANT In some circumstances, factors independent from the electric power steering could cause the illumination of the warning light ⊕ on the cluster.

We suggest to stop immediately the car, turn off the engine for about 20 seconds and then re-start the car. If the warning light ⏻ stays on together with the message on the reconfigurable multifunction display (where required), contact Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT The steering may become slightly stiff following parking manoeuvres including a great deal of steering. This is normal and caused by a system to prevent motor overheating. No servicing is required. The electrical power steering system will return to normal operation the next time the car is used.

WARNING

It is absolutely forbidden to carry out whatever after-market operation involving steering system or steering column modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft device) that could badly affect performance and safety, cause the lapse of warranty and also result in non-compliance of the car with homologation requirements.

WARNING

Always switch the engine off, remove the key from the starting device and actuate the steering lock before carrying out any maintenance operation, especially when the wheels are raised from the ground. In case this is not possible (e.g. when the key must be in MAR position or the engine running), remove the electric power steering main fuse before carrying out any maintenance operation.

PARKING SENSORS (where provided)

The parking system detects and informs the driver (through an intermittent acoustic signal) about the presence of obstacles in the rear part of the car.

ACTIVATION

The sensors are automatically activated when the reverse gear is engaged.

The sound produced by the acoustic alarm becomes louder when the distance between the car and the obstacle decreases.

BUZZER WARNINGS

When the reverse gear is engaged a short acoustic signal is automatically activated.

When an obstacle is detected an intermittent buzzer will sound ad follows:

☐ the sound frequency increases as the obstacle gets nearer;
☐ when the obstacle is t distance of less that 30 cm from the car, a continuous sound is emitted;
☐ sound is constant if the distance between car and obstacle is unvaried.

Direction distances

Central action radius 120 cm

Side action radius 60 cm

If several obstacles are detected, the control unit indicates the nearest one.

FAILURE WARNINGS

In case of parking sensor failure, the driver is warned when engaging reverse by high sound warning (for 3 seconds).

The system is preset for deactivating automatically when the trailer electric cable plug is fitted into the car tow hook socket.

Sensors are reactivated when removing the trailer cable plug.

For proper operation, the parking sensors set on the bumpers shall be clean from mud, dirt, snow or ice. When cleaning the sensors, take the utmost care to prevent their damaging; do not use therefore dry or rough clothes. Sensors shall be washed with clean water and car detergent, if required. In washing stations, clean sensors quickly keeping the vapour jet/high pressure washing nozzles at 10 cm at least from the sensors.

WARNING

Parking manoeuvres however are always under the driver's responsibility. He/she shall always check the absence of people (specially children) or animals in the manoeuvre space. This system is just a help for the driver but he shall never reduce attention during dangerous manoeuvres even if performed at low speed.

GENERAL WARNINGS

☐ When parking, take the utmost care to obstacles set above or under the sensors.
□ Objects set close to the car front or rear part, under certain circumstances are not detected and could therefore cause damages to the car.
☐ Indications sent by the sensors can be altered by dirt, snow or ice deposited on the sensors or by ultrasound systems (e.g.: truck pneumatic brakes or pneumatic hammers) set nearby the car.

AT THE FILLING STATION

PETROL ENGINES

Use only unleaded petrol.

To prevent errors, the diameter of the fuel tank filler is too small to introduce a lead petrol pump filler. Use petrol with a rated octane number (R.O.N.) not lower than 95.

IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst leads to harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing to air pollution.

IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small amount or in an emergency, as this would damage the catalyst beyond repair.

DIESEL ENGINES

If the outside temperature is very low, the diesel thickens due to the formation of paraffins and could clog the diesel fuel filter.

In order to avoid these problems, different types of diesel are distributed according to the season: summer type, winter type arctic type (mountains/cold areas).

If refuelling with diesel fuel not suitable for the current temperature, mix diesel fuel with TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the proportions stated on the can, putting first the antifreeze in the tank and then the diesel fuel.

Refuel with local diesel fuel if the car is used/parked in the mountains or in cold areas for a long period. In this event you are recommended to keep an amount of fuel higher than 50% in the tank.

REFUELLING

To ensure full tank refuelling, carry out two top-up operations once the delivery gun has turned off twice. Avoid further top-up operations which could cause faults in the fuel system.

The car must only be filled with diesel fuel for motor vehicles, in compliance with European Specification EN590. The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with invalidation of the warranty due to the damage caused. In the event of accidentally filling with another type of fuel, do not start the engine and empty the tank. If the engine has been run even for only a very short time, in addition to the tank, it is also necessary to drain out the whole fuel circuit.

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with a knob and cable (no text or symbols)

FUEL FILLER CAP

To open the cap, turn it anticlockwise and then remove it.

During refuelling, secure the cap to the anti-loss device on the flap as shown in the figure.

On certain versions the cap has a keylock: to open it proceed as described below.

Opening the cap with keylock (where provided)

Proceed as follows:

☐ hold the cap still and turn the ignition key anticlockwise;
☐ turn the cap by approximately half a turn anticlockwise and remove it.

The airtight seal of the cap may lead to a slight increase of pressure in the tank. A hissing sound when the cap is removed is therefore quite normal.

When refuelling, position the cap on the flap as shown in the figure.

WARNING

Do not put naked flames or lighted cigarettes near the fuel filler hole: danger of fire. Do not bend too close to the hole either so as not to breathe in harmful vapours.

Locking the cap with keylock (where provided)

Proceed as follows:

☐ insert the cap (with the key) and turn it clockwise until it clicks once or more;
□ turn the key clockwise and remove it. Close the flap.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

The devices for curtailing petrol engine emissions are the following:

□ three-way catalytic converter;
□ Lambda sensor;
☐ fuel evaporation system.

In addition, do not let the engine run, even for a test, with one or more spark plugs disconnected.

The devices for curtailing diesel fuel engine emissions are the following:

□ oxidising catalytic converter;
□ exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.).

WARNING

During operation of the catalytic converter it releases high temperatures. Therefore, do not park the car over inflammable material (grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire danger.

Through the reel, the belt automatically adapts to the body of the passenger wearing it, allowing freedom of movement.

When the car is parked on a steep slope the reel mechanism may block; this is normal. The reel mechanism prevents the webbing coming out when it is jerked or if the car brakes sharply, in a collision or when cornering at high speeds.

The rear seat is fitted with inertial seat belts with three anchor points and reel for the side seats and adjustable lap belt with two anchor points for the centre seat.

On certain versions the rear centre seat is fitted with seat belt with three anchor points and reel.

In order to avoid incorrect fastening, the tabs of the side seats and the buckle of the centre lap belt are incompatible.

Rear seat belts shall be worn as shown in the figure. To fold the seat back, see paragraph "Extending the boot" in section "Dashboard and controls".

IMPORTANT Remember that in the event of a violent collision, back seat passengers not wearing seat belts also represent a serious danger for the front seat passengers.

FRONT SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Always adjust the height of the seat belt to fit the person wearing it. This precaution could greatly reduce the risk of injury in case of collision.

Correct adjustment is obtained when the belt passes half way between the end of the shoulder and the neck.

Four different adjustments in height are provided.

To adjust, press button (A) and lower or raise the grip (B).

A B F010057m

WARNING

Make the height adjustment when the car is stationary.

WARNING

After adjustment, always check that the slider is anchored in one of the positions provided. To do this, with the button (A) released, exert a further pressure to allow the anchor device to catch if release did not take place at one of the preset positions.

USING THE REAR CENTRAL SEAT BELT

Seat belt without reel mechanism

To fasten the seat belt: insert the tongue (A) into the buckle (B), until you hear it click.

To unfasten the seat belt: press button (C).

To adjust the belt: slide the webbing in adjuster (D). Pull length (E) to tighten the belt and length (F) to loosen it.

IMPORTANT The belt is adjusted properly when it fits closely across the hips.

Seat belt with three anchor points and reel mechanism

The seat belt has two webbings and a double buckle.

To fasten the seat belt: pull the webbing from your reel gently. Slide the webbing carefully through the retainer by the side of the head restraint without twisting it. Then fasten tongue (A) in buckle (B) (grey with a black button) making the two yellow spot references coincide (one on the tongue and one on the buckle).

Slide out more webbing and insert tongue (C) in buckle (D) (grey with red button).

To unfasten the seat belt: press button (E) and lead the webbing to buckle (B). Then press button (F) (black).

PRETENSIONERS

To increase the efficiency of the front seat belts, the Fiat Punto is fitted with pretensioners. These devices "feel", through a sensor, that a violent crash is in progress and rewind the seat belts a few centimetres. In this way they ensure that the seat belt adheres perfectly to the wearer before the restraining action begins.

The seat belt locks to indicate that the device has intervened; the seat belt cannot be drawn back up even when guiding it manually.

IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat belt keeping it firmly close to the chest and pelvis.

Front seat pretensioners activate only if front seat belts are properly fitted into buckles.

A small amount of smoke may be produced. This smoke is in no way toxic and presents no fire hazard.

AIRBAG PRETENSIONERS AND CLOCK SPRING ATTENZIONE: CAUTION: ATTENTION: ACHTUNG: F010262m

The pretensioner does not require any maintenance or greasing. Anything that modifies its original conditions invalidates its efficiency. If due to unusual natural events (floods, seas storm, etc.) the device has been affected by water and mud, it must necessarily be replaced.

WARNING

The pretensioner can only be used once. After a collision that has triggered it, have it replaced at a Fiat Dealership. The validity of the device is written on the plate located in the glove compartment. Contact Fiat Dealership to have pretensioners replaced as this date approaches.

Operations which lead to knocks, vibrations or localised heating (over 100^ C for a maximum of 6 hours) in the area around the pretensioners may cause damage or trigger them. These devices are not affected by vibrations caused by irregularities of the road surface or low obstacles such as kerbs, etc. Contact a Fiat Dealership for any assistance.

LOAD LIMITERS

To increase passenger's safety, front and rear (where provided) seat belt reels contain a load limiter which allows controlled sag in such a way as to dose the force acting on the shoulders during the belt restraining action in case of front crash.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE SEAT BELTS

The driver must comply with (and have the vehicle occupants follow) all the local legal regulations concerning the use of seat belts.

Always fasten the seat belts before starting.

Seat belts are also to be worn by expectant mothers: the risk of injury in the case of accident is greatly reduced for them and the unborn child if they are wearing a seat belt. Of course they must position the lower part of the belt very low down so that it passes under the abdomen (as illustrated in the figure).

IMPORTANT The belt should not be twisted. The upper part should pass over the shoulder and cross the chest diagonally. The lower part should adhere to the pelvis and to the abdomen of the passenger (as illustrated in the figure). Do not use any objects (pegs, stoppers, etc.) to keep the belts away from the body.

WARNING

For maximum safety, keep the back of your seat upright, lean back into it and make sure the seat belt fits closely across your chest and hips. Make sure that the seat belts of the front and rear passengers are fastened at all times! You increase the risk of serious injury or death in a collision if you travel with the belts unfastened.

Illustration of a person sitting in a chair with a black X symbol crossed out, no text or symbols present

IMPORTANT Never travel with a child sitting on the passenger's lap with a single belt to protect them both. Do not fasten other objects to the body.

WARNING

Under no circumstances should the components of the seat belts and pretensioners be tampered with or removed. Any operation should be carried out by qualified and authorised personnel. Always contact a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING

If the belt has been subjected to heavy stress, for example after an accident, it should be changed completely together with the anchors, anchor fastening screws and the pretensioners. In fact, even if the belt has no visible defects, it could have lost its resilience.

HOW TO KEEP THE SEAT BELTS ALWAYS IN EFFICIENT CONDITIONS

Observe the following:

□ Always use the belt with the tape taut and never twisted; make sure that it is free to run without impediments;
☐ After a serious accident, replace the belt being worn at that time, even if it does not appear damaged. Always replace the seat belts if pretensioners have been activated;
☐ To clean the belts, wash by hand with neutral soap, rinse and leave to dry in the shade. Never use strong detergents, bleach or dyes or other chemical substance that might weaken the fibres;
☐ Prevent the reels from getting wet: their correct operation is only guaranteed if water does not get inside;
☐ Replace the seat belt when showing significant wear or cut signs.

CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELY

For optimal protection in the event of a crash, all passengers must be seated and wearing adequate restraint systems.

This is even more important for children.

According to 2003/20/EC Directive, this prescription is compulsory for all European Community countries.

Compared with adults, their head is proportionally larger and heavier than the rest of the body, while the muscles and bone structure are not completely developed. Therefore, correct restraint systems are necessary, other than adult seat belts.

The results of research on the best child restraint systems are contained in the European Standard ECE-R44. This Standard enforces the use of restraint systems classified in five groups:

Group 0 0-10 kg in weight

Group 0+ 0-13 kg in weight

Group I 9-18 kg in weight

Group 2 15-25 kg in weight

Group 3 22-36 kg in weight

As it may be noted, the groups overlap partly and in fact, in commerce it is possible to find devices that cover more than one weight group.

All restraint devices must bear the certification data, together with the control brand, on a solidly fixed label which must absolutely never be removed.

Over 1.50 m in height from the point of view of restraint systems, children are considered as adults and wear the seat belts normally.

Lineaccessori Fiat offers seats for each weight group. These seats are the recommended choice, as they have been designed and experimented specifically for Fiat cars.

WARNING

SERIOUS DANGER: Never place cradle child's seats on the front passenger seat of cars fitted with passenger's air bag since the air bag could cause serious injuries, even mortal. You are advised to carry children always on the rear seat, as this is the most protected position in the case of a crash. In any case, children's seats must absolutely not be fitted on the front seat of cars with passenger's air bag, which during inflation could cause serious injury, even mortal, regardless of the seriousness of the crash that triggered it.

WARNING

In case of need, on cars provided with front passenger's air bag deactivation, a child can be carried on the front seat. In this case it is absolutely necessary to check the warning light to make sure that deactivation has actually taken place (see paragraph "Front and side air bags" at item "Front passenger's air bag"). The front passenger's seat shall be adjusted in the most backward position to prevent any contact between child's seat and dashboard.

GROUP 0 and 0+

Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing backwards on a cradle seat, which, supporting the head, does not induce stress on the neck in the event of sharp deceleration.

The cradle is restrained by the car seat belts, as shown in the figure and in turn it must restrain the child with its own belts.

GROUP I

Starting from 9 kg to 18 kg in weight, children may be carried facing forwards, with seats fitted with front cushion, through which the car seat belt restrains both child and seat.

0-13 kg F010022m

9-18 kg F010023m

WARNING

Figures are indicative for assembly only. The seat should be installed following the instructions that must accompany it.

WARNING

Seats exist which are suitable for covering weight groups 0 and 1 with a rear connection and their own belts to restrain the child. Due to their size, they can be dangerous if installed incorrectly fastened to the car belts with a cushion. Carefully follow the instructions for installation provided with the seat.

15-25 kg F010024m

GROUP 2

Starting from 15 kg to 25 kg in weight, children may be restrained directly by the car belts. The only function of the seat is to position the child correctly in relation to the belts, so that the diagonal part adheres to the chest and not to the neck and that the horizontal part clings to the child's pelvis and not the abdomen.

22-36 kg F010025m

GROUP 3

For children from 22 kg up to 36 kg the size of the child's chest no longer requires a support to space the child's back from the seat back.

The figure shows proper child seat positioning on the rear seat.

Children taller than 1.50 m can wear seat belts like adults.

WARNING

The figure is only an example for mounting. Attain to the instructions for fastening which must be enclosed with the specific child restraint system you are using.

PASSENGER SEAT COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS ON CHILD'S SEAT USE

Fiat Punto complies with the new Directive 2000/3/EC regulating child's seat assembling on the different car seats according to the following tables:

Front and rear seat (3 and 5-door versions)

Group	Range of weight	SEAT
		Front passenger	Rear side passenger	Central rear passenger (with reel)	Central rear passenger (lap)
Group 0, 0+	up to 13 kg	U	U	U	(*)
Group 1	9 - 18 kg	U	U	U	(*)
Group 2	15 - 25 kg	U	U	U	(*)
Group 3	22 - 36 kg	U	U	U	(*)

Key:

U = suitable for child restraint systems of the "Universal" category, according to European Standard ECE-R44 for the specified "Groups".

(*) = in correspondence with the central place of the rear seat with lap belts (without reel), no type of seat can be assembled.

Below is a summary of the rules of safety to be followed for carrying children:

☐ The recommended position for installing child's seat is on the rear seat, as it is the most protected in the case of a crash.
☐ If the passenger's air bag is deactivated always check the warning light ☐ on the cluster to make sure that it has actually been deactivated.
☐ Attain to the instructions for fastening the specific child restraint system which you are using. These instructions must be provided by the manufacturer. Keep the child restraint system installation instructions with the car documents and this Handbook. Never use a child restraint system without installation instructions.
□ Always check the seat belt is well fastened by pulling the webbing.

☐ Only one child is to be strapped to each retaining system.
□ Always check the seat belts do not fit around the child's throat.
☐ While travelling, do not let the child sit incorrectly or release the belts.
☐ Passengers should never carry children on their laps. No-one, however strong they are, can hold a child in the event of a crash.
☐ In case of an accident, replace the seat with a new one.

WARNING

In cars fitted with passenger air bag never place child's restraint systems on the front seat since children shall never be seated on the front passenger seat.

FRONT AND SIDE AIR BAGS

The car is fitted with driver's air bag. As optional it can be fitted with passenger's air bag, side bags and window bag.

The front air bag (driver and passenger) has been designed to protect the occupants in the event of head-on crashes of medium-high severity, by placing the cushion between the occupant and the steering wheel or dashboard.

Front air bags are designed to protect car's occupants in front crashes and therefore non-activation in other types of collisions (side collisions, rear shunts, rollovers, etc.) is not a system malfunction.

In case of front crash, an electronic control unit, when required, triggers the inflation of the cushion according to the severity of the collision. The cushion immediately inflates, placing itself as a protection between the body of the front occupants and the structure that could cause injuries. Immediately after, the cushion deflates.

The front air bag (driver and passenger) is not a replacement of but complementary to the use of belts, which should always be worn, as specified by law in Europe and most non-European countries.

In case of crash, a person not wearing the seat belt moves forward and may come into contact with the cushion while it is still inflating. Under this circumstance the protection offered by the air bag is reduced.

©

DRIVER'S FRONT AIR BAG

It consists of an instant-inflating cushion contained in a special recess in the centre of the steering wheel.

PASSENGER'S FRONT AIR BAG (where provided)

It consists of an instant-inflating cushion contained in a special recess in the dashboard; its volume is bigger than the driver's one.

The driver's and passenger's front Air bags have been designed and calibrated to improve the protection of a person wearing seat belts.

At their maximum inflation, their volume fills most of the space between the dashboard and the passenger.

Interior view of a car dashboard with steering wheel and directional arrow (no text or symbols)

Diagram of a car interior showing a blank panel with an arrow pointing to it, no text or symbols present.

WARNING

SERIOUS DANGER: The car is fitted with an air bag on the passenger's side. Never place cradle child's seats on the front passenger's seat of cars fitted with passenger's air bag since the air bag activation could cause serious injuries, even mortal.

WARNING

On cars provided with front passenger's air bag, the air bag shall be deactivated when placing a child' seat on the front passenger's seat. The front passenger seat shall be adjusted in the most backward position to prevent any contact between child' seat and dashboard. Even if not compulsory by law, you are recommended to reactivate the air bag immediately as soon as child transport is no longer necessary.

ON OFF PASS AIR BAG F010064m

MANUALLY DEACTIVATING PASSENGER'S FRONT AIR BAG (where required)

Should it be absolutely necessary to carry a child on the front seat, the passenger's air bag on the car can be deactivated.

Deactivation/reactivation takes place with ignition key at STOP and operating it in the special key switch on the right-hand side of the dashboard. You can reach the switch only if the door is opened.

When the door is open, the key can be inserted and removed in both positions.

IMPORTANT Operate the switch only when the engine is not running and the ignition key is removed.

The key-operated switch has two positions:

☐ Passenger's front air bag activated (ON position Ⓧ): warning light ⚡️ on instrument cluster off; it is absolutely prohibited to carry a child on the front seat.
☐ Passenger's front air bag deactivated (OFF position 📊): warning light 📊 on instrument cluster on; it is possible to carry a child protected by special restraint system on the front seat.

The warning light 📁 on the cluster stays on permanently until the passenger's air bag is reactivated.

Deactivation of the passenger's front air bag does not inhibit operation of the side air bag.

SIDE AIR BAGS (Side bag - Front Window bag) (where provided)

SIDE BAG

They are composed by two types of instant inflation and are housed in the back rest of the front seats. The task of the side air bags is to increase protection of the occupants' chest in the event of a side crash of medium-high severity.

FRONT WINDOW BAG

They are “curtain” cushions located behind the side coverings of the roof and covered by proper finishings such to allow the cushion unfolding downwards; this solution, studied for the head protection, allows offering the best protection to the front occupants in the event of side crash.

In minor side crashes (for which the restraining action of the seat belts is sufficient), the air bags are not deployed.

Also in this case it is of vital importance to wear the seat belts since in case of side crash they guarantee proper positioning of the occupant and prevent the occupants to be pitched out of the car in case of violent crashes. Therefore the side bags are not a replacement of but complementary to the belts, which you are recommended to always wear, as specified by law in Europe and most non-European countries.

Technical diagram of a mechanical component with an arrow pointing to a specific part (no text or symbols present)

Interior view of a car showing seat, driver, and dashboard with dashed lines indicating alignment (no text or symbols)

IMPORTANT In the event of side crash, you can obtain the best protection by the system keeping a correct position on the seat, thus allowing correct front window bag unfolding.

IMPORTANT The front air bags and/or side bags may be deployed if the car is subject to heavy knocks or accidents involving the underbody area, such as for example violent shocks, against steps, kerbs or low obstacles, falling of the car in big holes or sags in the road.

IMPORTANT When the airbag inflates it emits a small amount of dusts. These dusts are harmless and is not the beginning of a fire; then the unfold cushion surface and the car interiors can be covered by a dusty remains: this dust can irritate skin and eyes. In case of contact, wash yourself using neutral soap and water.

WARNING

Never rest head, arms and elbows on the door, on the windows and in the front window bag area to prevent possible injuries during the inflation phase.

WARNING

Never put head, arms and elbows out of window.

The airbag system has a validity of 14 years for the pyrotechnic charge and 10 years for the coil contact (see the plate located in the glove compartment). Contact Fiat Dealership for replacement as these dates approach.

IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in which any of the safety devices is activated, take the car to a Fiat Dealership to have the devices activated replaced and to have the system checked.

All control, repair and replacement operations concerning the air bags must only be carried out c/o Fiat Dealership.

If you are having the car scrapped, have the airbag system deactivated at a Fiat Dealership first. If the car changes ownership, the new owner must be informed of the method of use of air bags and the above warnings and also be given this “Owner handbook”.

IMPORTANT The triggering of pretensioners, front air bags and front and rear side bags is decided in a differentiated manner by the electronic control unit, depending on the type of crash.

The failure to deploy one or more of them does not mean that the system is not working properly.

GENERAL WARNINGS

WARNING

If the ⚠ warning light does not turn on when turning the ignition key to MAR or if it stays on when travelling, this could indicate a failure in safety retaining systems; under this condition air bags or pretensioners could not trigger in the event of collision or, in a restricted number of cases, they could trigger accidentally. Stop the car and contact Fiat Dealership to have the system checked immediately.

WARNING

Do not cover the back rest of front seats with trims or covers there are not set for the use of side bags.

WARNING

Never travel with objects on your lap, in front of your chest or with a pipe, pencil, etc. between your lips. Injury may result in the event of the air bag being triggered.

WARNING

Always keep your hands on the steering wheel rim when driving, so that if the air bag is triggered, it can inflate without meeting any obstacles which could cause serious harm to you. Do not drive with the body bent forwards, keep the seat back rest in the erect position and lean your back well against it.

WARNING

If the car has been stolen or an attempt to steal it has been made, if it has been subjected to vandals or floods, have the air bag system checked by Fiat Dealership.

WARNING

Remember that with the key engaged and in the MAR position, even with the engine not running, the air bags may be triggered on a stationary vehicle if it is bumped by another moving car. Therefore, never seat children on the front seat even when the vehicle is stationary. On the other hand, remember that with the ignition key at STOP no safety device (air bags or pretensioners) will be triggered in the event of an impact; in these cases, failure to come into action of the air bags cannot be considered as a sign that the system is not working properly.

WARNING

When the ignition key is turned to the MAR position, the warning light ⚙ (with passenger's front air bag deactivation (where required) switch in the ON position) turns on and flashes for few seconds to remind that passenger's air bag will be deployed in a crash, after which it should go off.

WARNING

Do not wash the seat back rest with pressurised water or steam (by hand or at automatic seat washing stations).

WARNING

The front air bag is triggered for shocks greater in magnitude than the pretensioners. For impacts between these two thresholds, it is therefore normal that only the pretensioners are triggered.

WARNING

Do not hook rigid objects to the coat hooks and to the support handles.

WARNING

The air bag does not substitute the seat belts, but only increases their effectiveness. Moreover, since the front air bags do not come into operation in the event of front impact at low speed, side collisions, bumps from behind or overturning, in these circumstances the occupants would only be protected by the seat belts which must therefore always be fastened.

ENGINE STARTING

The car is fitted with an electronic engine lock device. If the engine fails to start, see paragraph “Fiat Code system” in section “Dashboard and controls”.

STARTING PROCEDURE FOR PETROL VERSIONS

Proceed as follows:

☐ Ensure that the handbrake is up;
☐ Put the gear lever into neutral;
☐ Press the clutch pedal down to the floor without touching the accelerator;
☐ Turn the ignition key to AVV and let it go the moment the engine starts.

If the engine does not start at the first attempt, return the ignition key to STOP before repeating starting.

If, when the ignition key is on MAR, warning light remains lit together with warning light, turn the key to STOP and then back to MAR; if the warning light remains on, try with the other keys provided with the car.

If you are still unable to start the engine, perform the emergency start-up procedure (see “Emergency start-up” in section “In an emergency”) and contact Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition key at MAR when the engine is off.

We recommend that during the initial period you do not drive to full vehicle performance (e.g.: excessive acceleration, long journeys at top speed, sharp braking, etc).

When the engine is switched off never leave the ignition key in the MAR position to prevent pointless current absorption from draining the battery.

WARNING

Running the engine in confined areas is extremely dangerous. The engine consumes oxygen and produces carbon monoxide which is a highly toxic and lethal gas.

STARTING PROCEDURE FOR DIESEL VERSIONS

Proceed as follows:

☐ Ensure that the handbrake is up;
☐ Put the gear lever into neutral;
☐ Turn the ignition key to MAR. The warning lights 00 and 📋 will light up on the instrument panel;
☐ Wait for the warning lights 📋 and 70 to go out. The hotter the engine is, the quicker this will happen;
☐ Press the clutch pedal down to the floor without touching the accelerator;
☐ Turn the ignition key to AVV as soon as warning light 00 goes out. If you wait too long you will lose the benefit of the work done by the glow plugs. Release the key as soon as the engine starts.

If the engine does not start at the first attempt, return the ignition key to STOP before repeating starting.

If, when the ignition key is on MAR, warning light remains lit, turn the key to STOP and then back to MAR; if the warning light remains on, try with the other keys provided with the car.

If you still cannot start the engine, contact Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT Never leave the ignition key at MAR when the engine is off.

The warning light 00 will flash for 60 seconds at start-up or during prolonged cranking to signal a fault in the glow plug heating system. You can use the car as usual if the engine starts but you should contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

©

PARKING

Proceed as follows:

☐ Stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
☐ Engage a gear (first if the car is faced uphill or reverse if it is faced downhill) and leave the wheels steered.

Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone if the car is parked on a steep slope. Do not leave the ignition key at MAR to prevent draining the battery. Always remove the key when you leave the car.

HANDBRAKE

The handbrake lever is located between the two front seats.

Pull the handbrake lever upwards until the car cannot be moved. Four or five clicks are generally enough when the car is on level ground while nine or ten may be required if the car is on a steep slope or laden.

IMPORTANT If this is not the case, contact Fiat Dealership to have the handbrake adjusted.

When the handbrake lever is pulled up and the ignition key is at MAR the panel warning light ⏻ will come on.

WARNING

Never leave children unattended in the car. Always remove the ignition key when leaving the car and take it out with you.

F010108m

To release the handbrake:

☐ Slightly lift the handbrake and press release button (A);
□ Keep button (A) pressed in and lower the lever. Warning light Ⓑ will go out.

Press the brake pedal when carrying out this operation to prevent the car from moving accidentally.

USING THE MANUAL GEARBOX

To engage the gears, press the clutch pedal fully and shift the gear lever into one of the required positions (the diagram is shown on the knob).

To engage 6th gear press the lever to the right to prevent engaging 4th gear by mistake. A similar action is required to shift down from 6th to 5th.

IMPORTANT The car can only be put into reverse gear when it has stopped moving completely. With the engine running, before engaging the reverse, wait at least 2 seconds with the clutch pedal fully down to prevent damage and grating of the gears.

To engage reverse (R) from neutral proceed as follows:

☐ for 1.28V and 1.216V versions, lift the sliding ring (A) under the knob and shift the lever to the right and back;
☐ for 1.816V versions, just shift the lever to the right and back.

CONTAINING RUNNING COSTS

Here are some suggestions which may help you to keep the running costs of your car down and lower the amount of toxic emissions released into the atmosphere.

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

Car maintenance

Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance with the “Service schedule”.

WARNING

To change gears properly you must push the clutch pedal fully down. It is therefore essential that there is nothing under the pedals: make sure mats are lying flat and do not get in the way of the pedals.

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 on the gearbox internal components.

Tyres

Check the pressure of the tyres routinely at an interval of no more than 4 weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption levels increase as resistance to rolling is higher.

Unnecessary loads

Do not travel with too much luggage stowed in the boot. The weight of the car (especially when driving in town) and its trim greatly affects consumption and stability.

Roof rack/ski rack

Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof as soon as they are no longer used. These accessories lower air penetration and adversely affect consumption levels. When needing to carry particularly voluminous objects, preferably use a trailer.

Electric devices

Use electric devices only for the amount of time needed. Rear heated window, additional headlights, windscreen wipers and heater fan need a considerable amount of energy, therefore increasing the requirement of current increases fuel consumption (up to +25% in the urban cycle).

Climate control

The air conditioner is an additional load which greatly affects the engine leading to higher consumption (on average up to +20%). When the temperature outside the vehicle permits it, use the air vents where possible.

Spoilers

The use of non-certified aerodynamic items may adversely affect air drag and consumption levels.

DRIVING STYLE

Starting

Do not warm the engine with the car at a standstill or at idle or high speed: under these conditions the engine warms up much more slowly, increasing electrical consumption and emissions.

It is therefore advisable to move off immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds. This way the engine will warm faster.

Unnecessary actions

Avoid accelerating when waiting at traffic lights or before switching off the engine. This and also double declutching is absolutely pointless on modern cars and also increase consumption and pollution.

Gear selection

As soon as the conditions of the traffic and road allow, use a higher gear. Using a low gear to obtain brilliant performance increases consumption. In the same way improper use of a high gear increases consumption, emissions an engine wear.

Top speed

Fuel consumption considerably increases with speed. Avoid superfluous braking and accelerating, which cost in terms of both fuel and emissions.

Acceleration

Accelerating violently increasing the revs will greatly affect consumption and emissions: acceleration should be gradual and should not exceed the maximum torque.

CONDITIONS OF USE

Cold starting

Short journeys and frequent cold starts do not allow the engine to reach optimum operating temperature. This results in a significant increase in consumption levels (from +15 to +30% on the urban cycle) and emission of harmful substances.

Traffic situations and road conditions

Rather high consumption levels are tied to situations with heavy traffic, for example in queues with frequent use of the lower gears or in cities with many traffic lights. Also winding mountain roads and rough road surfaces adversely affect consumption.

Traffic hold-ups

During prolonged hold-ups (e.g.: level crossings) the engine should be switched off.

TOWING TRAILERS

IMPORTANT NOTES

For towing caravans or trailers the car must be fitted with a certified tow hook and an adequate electric system. Installation should be carried out by specialised personnel who release a special document for circulation on the road.

Install any specific and/or additional rear-view mirrors as specified by law.

Remember that when towing a trailer, steep hills are harder to climb, the braking spaces increase and overtaking takes longer depending on the overall weight.

Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather than constantly using the brake.

The weight the trailer exerts on the car tow hook reduces by the same amount the actual vehicle loading capacity. To make sure the maximum towable weight is not exceeded (given in the log book) account should be taken of the fully laden trailer, including accessories and personal belongings.

Do not exceed the speed limits of the country you are driving in. In any case do not exceed 100 km/h.

WARNING

The ABS system with which the car may be fitted does not control the trailer braking system. Great care should therefore be taken when driving on slippery road surfaces.

WARNING

Under no circumstances should the vehicle brake system be altered to control the trailer brake. The trailer braking system must be fully independent of the vehicle's hydraulic system.

INSTALLING THE TOW HOOK

The towing device should be fastened to the body by specialised personnel according to any additional and/or integrative information supplied by the Manufacturer of the device.

The towing device must meet current regulations with reference to 94/20/EC Directive and subsequent amendments.

For any version the towing device used must match the towable weight of the vehicle on which it is to be installed.

For the electric connection a unified connector should be used which is generally placed on a special bracket normally fastened to the towing device, and a special ECU for external trailer light control shall be installed on the car.

For the electrical connection, a 7 or 13 pole 12ESP coupling must be used (CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN standards). Follow the instructions provided by the car manufacturer and/or the tow hitch manufacturer.

An electric brake should be supplied directly by the battery through a cable with a cross section of no less than 2,5 mm ^4 .

IMPORTANT Electric brake or other device shall be used with running engine.

In addition to the electrical branches, the car's electric system can only be connected to the supply cable for an electric brake and to the cable for an internal light, though not above 15W.

For connections use a preset control unit with battery cable no less than 2,5 mm ^4 .

The tow hook structure must be fastened in the points shown by the symbol using a total of 4 M8 screws 2 M10 screws and 2 M12 screws.

In the fastening points of the rear external covering, the dampening pad fastening plates must be replaced with right plate A and left plate B (code 50901257 and 50901258) that shall compulsorily be mounted in the external side of the rear covering, as shown in the figure.

The hook should be fastened to the body avoiding any type of drilling and trimming of the rear bumpers that remains visible when the hook is removed.

IMPORTANT It is compulsory to fasten a label (plainly visible) of suitable size and material with the following wording:

MAX LOAD ON BALL 60 kg

WARNING

After fitting, screw holes shall be sealed to

prevent an exhaust gas inlet.

SNOW TYRES

Use snow tyres of the same size as the normal tyres provided with the car.

Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice concerning the most suitable type of tyre for the customer's requirements.

For the type of tyre to be used, inflation pressures and the specifications of snow tyres, follow the instructions given in paragraph “Wheels” in section “Technical specifications”.

The winter features of these tyres are reduced considerably when the tread depth is below 4 mm. In this case, they should be replaced.

Due to the snow tyre features, under normal conditions of use or on long motorway journeys, the performance of these tyres is lower than that of normal tyres. It is therefore necessary to limit their use to the purposes for which they are certified.

IMPORTANT When snow tyres are used with a max speed index below the one that can be reached by the car (increased by 5%), place a notice in the passenger compartment, plainly in the driver's view which states the max permissible speed of the snow tyres (as per EC Directive).

All four tyres should be the same (brand and track) to ensure greater safety when driving and braking and better driveability.

Remember that it is inappropriate to change the direction of rotation of tyres.

WARNING

The max speed for snow tyres with "Q" marking is 160 km/h; 190 km/h for tyres with "T" marking and 210 km/h for tyres with "H" marking. The Road Traffic Code speed limits must however be always strictly observed.

SNOW CHAINS

Use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations.

Snow chains should only be applied to the driving wheels (front wheels). We recommend using Lineaccessori Fiat snow chains.

Check the tension of the chains after driving some ten metres.

IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be fitted to the space-saver spare wheel. So, if a front (drive) wheel is punctured and chains are needed, a rear wheel should be fitted to the front of the vehicle and the spare wheel should be fitted to the rear. This way with two normal drive wheels, snow chains can be fitted to them to solve an emergency.

IMPORTANT Use only reduced clearance snow chains with maximum projection off wheel equal to 12 mm.

Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted. Do not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and pavements and avoid also to drive for long distances on roads not covered with snow to prevent damaging the car and the roadbed.

CAR INACTIVITY

If the car is to be left inactive for longer than a month, the following precautions should be noted:

☐ park the car in covered, dry and if possible well-ventilated premises;
□ engage a gear;
☐ check that the handbrake is not engaged;
☐ disconnect battery terminals (first disconnect the negative terminal) and check the battery charge. This check is to be repeated every three months. Recharge if the optical indicator shows a dark colour without the central green area;
☐ clean and protect the painted parts using protective wax;
☐ clean and protect the shiny metal parts using special compounds readily available;

□ sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber windscreen and rear window wiper blades and lift them off the glass;
□ slightly open the windows;
☐ cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic sheet. Do not use sheets of non-perforated plastic as they do not allow moisture on the car body to evaporate;
☐ inflate tyres to +0.5 bar above the normal specified pressure and check it at intervals;
☐ if you don't disconnect the battery from the electric system, check its charge every month and recharge it if the optical indicator shows a dark colour without the central green area;
☐ do not drain the engine cooling system.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES

GENERAL WARNINGS.... 175

Failure indications shown (only for some versions) on the reconfigurable multifunction display together with buzzer sounding (adjustable) and warning light (if any) coming on on the cluster, are accompanied by possibles specific warning messages (e.g.: "Switch off engine", etc...). These indications are concise and cautionary and are aimed to suggest the prompt action the driver must adopt when a car malfunctioning appears. These indications, however, shall not be considered as exhaustive and/or as an alternative to the specifications contained in this "Owner handbook", which shall always be read through carefully and thoroughly. In case of failure indication always refer to the specifications contained in this section.

IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed on the reconfigurable multifunction display are divided into two categories: very serious failures and serious/minor failures.

The message and the warning indication corresponding to very serious failures are displayed alternately for few seconds. This “cycle” is repeated indefinitely and it stops any previous indication on the display. It is displayed every time the ignition key is turned to MAR, until the cause of malfunctioning is removed.

Should failure disappear, message and warning light will however stay on for about 2 seconds. Eliminating the failure, the warning light and the displayed message will go off. It is possible to stop this “cycle” by pressing button ☐, in this case the screen active before the failure will be resumed and the warning light will stay on until eliminating the failure cause.

The message and the warning indication corresponding to serious/minor failures are displayed alternately for few seconds. This “cycle” is repeated for about 20 seconds and then goes off, but it comes on again every time the ignition key is turned to MAR.

Should failure disappear during the 20 seconds displaying, message and warning light will stay on for about 2 seconds. Eliminating the failure, the warning light and the displayed message will go off.

At the end of the display cycle (which lasts approx. 20 seconds), or if button is pressed, the screen active before the failure will be resumed and the warning light will stay on until eliminating the failure cause.

See the attached Supplement for messages relevant to versions with Speedgear or Dualogic gearbox.

ENGINE STARTING

EMERGENCY START-UP

If the Fiat CODE system fails to deactivate engine immobilising system the warning lights 📄 and 📋 stay on and the engine cannot be started.

To start the engine the emergency start-up can be performed.

Read the whole procedure carefully before trying to carry it out. If you make a mistake, you must turn the ignition key back to STOP and repeat the whole operation from beginning.

Proceed as follows:

☐ Read the 5-figure electronic code given on the CODE card;
☐ Turn the ignition key to MAR;
☐ Press and hold down the accelerator pedal. The warning light ☐ turns on for about 8 seconds, and then goes off;
☐ Release the accelerator pedal and get ready to count the flashes of the warning light;
☐ Count the number of flashes that corresponds to the first figure of the code on the CODE card, then press the accelerator pedal and keep it there until the warning light comes on (for 4 seconds) and then goes off; release the accelerator pedal;

☐ The warning light will start flashing again: after it has flashed the number of times that corresponds to the second figure on the CODE card, press the accelerator pedal to the floor and keep it there;

☐ Do the same for the remaining figures on the CODE card;

Once the final figure has been entered, keep the accelerator pedal pressed. The warning light will light up for 4 seconds and then goes out. Release the accelerator pedal;

☐ Rapid flashing of the warning light ☐ (for about 4 seconds) confirms the operation has been carried out successfully;

☐ Start the engine by turning the ignition key from MAR to AVV.

If however the warning light 📄 stays on, turn the ignition key to STOP and repeat the procedure from step one

IMPORTANT After an emergency start-up, you should contact a Fiat Dealership otherwise you will have to repeat the procedure described each time you want to start the engine.

JUMP STARTING

If the battery is flat, it is possible to start the engine using an auxiliary battery with the same capacity or a little higher than the flat one.

Proceed as follows:

□ Connect positive terminals (+) of the two batteries with a jump lead;
☐ With a second lead, connect the negative terminal (−) of the auxiliary battery and to an earthing point ↓ on the engine or the gearbox of the car to be started;
□ Start the engine;
☐ When the engine has been started, remove the leads reversing the order above.

If after a few attempts the engine does not start, do not insist but contact the nearest Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative terminals of the two batteries: any sparks may ignite the detonating gas which could come out of the battery. If the auxiliary battery is installed on another car, avoid metal parts touching accidentally between this car and the one with the flat battery.

F010140m

Never use a battery charger to start the engine as this could damage the electronic systems of your vehicle, particularly the ignition and fuel supply control units.

WARNING

This starting procedure must be carried out by qualified personnel because incorrect operations may cause electrical discharge of considerable intensity. The liquid contained in the battery is poisonous an corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Keep naked flames and lighted cigarettes away from the battery and do not cause sparks.

BUMP STARTING

Never bump start the engine (by pushing, towing or coasting downhill). This could cause fuel to flow into the catalytic converter and damage it beyond repair.

IMPORTANT Remember that the servobrake and electrical power steering system are not operating until the engine is started, a greater effort will therefore be required to press the brake pedal or turn the steering wheel.

IF A TYRE IS PUNCTURED

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Wheel changing and correct use of the jack and space-saver spare wheel call for some precautions as listed below.

IMPORTANT If the vehicle is fitted with "Fix & Go (quick tyre repair kit)", see the relevant instructions in the following chapter.

WARNING

Alert other drivers that the car is stationary in compliance with local regulations: hazard warning lights, warning triangle, etc. Any passengers on board should leave the car, especially if it is heavily laden. Passengers should stay away from oncoming traffic while the wheel is being changed. If parked on a slope or rough surface, chock the wheels with wedges or other suitable devices to prevent the car from rolling.

WARNING

The space-saver spare wheel is specific to your car, do not use it on other models, or use the spare wheel of other models on your vehicle. The space-saver spare wheel shall only be used in an emergency. It shall only be used for the distance necessary to reach a service point and the car speed shall not exceed 80 km/h. The spare wheel has an orange sticker that summarises the main cautions for use and limitations. The sticker should never be removed or covered. Never fit a wheel cap on a space-saver spare wheel. The sticker gives the following information in four languages: CAUTION! FOR TEMPORARY USE ONLY! 80 KM/H MAX! REPLACE BY NORMAL WHEEL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE . DO NOT COVER THIS LABEL IN USE.

WARNING

When driving with a space-saver spare wheel fitted, the driving performance of the car changes. Avoid accelerating or braking sharply, abrupt turns or fast cornerings. The life of the spare wheel is approx. 3000 Km, after this distance it should be replaced with another of the same type. Never attempt to fit a conventional tyre on a rim designed for use as a space-saver spare wheel. Have the punctured wheel repaired and refitted as soon as possible. Two or more space-saver spare wheels should never be used together. Do not grease the threads of bolts before installing them: they might slip out.

WARNING

The jack shall only be used for changing wheels on the car with which it is provided or on cars of the same model. It must not be used for other purposes such as for instance raising cars of other models. In no case should it be used for repairs under the car. Incorrect positioning of the jack may cause the jacked vehicle to fall. Do not use the jack for higher capacities than stated on its label. Snow chains cannot be fitted to the space-saver spare wheel. So, if a front (drive) wheel is punctured and chains are needed, a rear wheel should be fitted to the front of the vehicle and the spare wheel should be fitted to the rear. This way with two normal drive wheels, snow chains can be fitted to them to solve an emergency.

WARNING

Fasten the wheel cap correctly to prevent the wheel from coming free in motion. Never tamper with the inflation valve. Never place tools between the rim and tyre. Check and restore, if required, the pressure of tyres and spare wheel to the values given in the “Technical specifications” section.

A B F010110m

Please note:

☐ the jack weight is 1.85 kg;
□ the jack requires no adjustment;
☐ the jack cannot be repaired: in the event of a fault it must be replaced by another original one;
☐ no tool other than its cranking device may be fitted on the jack.

To change a wheel proceed as follows:

☐ Stop the car in a position that is not dangerous for oncoming traffic where you can change the wheel safely. The ground should be flat and adequately firm;
☐ Turn the engine off and pull up the handbrake;
☐ Engage first gear or reverse;
☐ Lift the luggage compartment panel mat ;
☐ Loosen the clamping device (A) using wrench (B) if required;
☐ Take out the tool container and take it near to the wheel to be changed;
☐ Take the spare wheel;
☐ for versions fitted with press-fit wheel cap, remove the wheel cap avoiding to damage it;
☐ Using the wrench provided (B) loosen the fastening bolts by about one turn. If the car is fitted with alloy rims, shake the car to facilitate removing the rim from the wheel hub;

☐ Fit the handle and operate it to partially open the jack. Position the jack under the car (see figure) at the reference points (C) near the wheel to be replaced;
☐ Extend the jack until the groove (D) on the jack fits correctly into ridge (E) underneath the sidemember;
□ Warn anybody nearby that the car is about to be lifted. They must stay clear and not touch the vehicle until it is back on the ground;
☐ Operate the jack and raise the car until the wheel is a few centimetres from the ground;
□ Undo the four wheel bolts and remove the wheel.
☐ Make sure the surfaces of the space-saver spare wheel that come into contact with the hub are clean and free from any impurities that could cause wheel bolts loosening;

WARNING

If read pressure is below 1.3 bar, stop immediately and contact Fiat Dealership. If read pressure is equal to at least 1.3 bar, restore proper pressure (engine running and handbrake on) and then drive with the utmost care.

WARNING

If when restoring pressure it is impossible to reach at least 1.8 bar, stop immediately since the tyre is too damaged and the quick repair kit cannot guarantee proper seal, contact Fiat Dealership.

WHEN NEEDING TO CHANGE A BULB

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

☐ When a light is not working, check that the corresponding fuse is intact before changing a bulb. For the location of fuses, refer to the paragraph “If a fuse blows” in this section;

☐ Before changing a bulb check the contacts for oxidation;
☐ Burnt bulbs must be replaced by others of the same type and power;
□ Always check the height of the headlight beam after changing a bulb.

Halogen bulbs must be handled touching only the metallic part. If the transparent bulb is touched with the fingers, its lighting intensity is reduced and life of the bulb may be compromised. If touched accidentally, rub the bulb with a cloth moistened with alcohol and leave it to dry.

WARNING

Halogen bulbs contain pressurised gas, in the case of breakage they may burst.

WARNING

Alterations or repairs to the electric system not carried out correctly and without taking into account of the system specifications may cause failures and the risk of fire.

WARNING

Where possible, it is advisable to have bulbs changed c/o Fiat Dealership. The correct operation and aiming of the outer lights are vital to safety of the car and its passengers and the subject of specific laws.

IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface might be slightly misted: this should not be considered irregular but a natural phenomenon due to low temperature and the air humidity level. Misting will disappear as soon as the headlights are turned on. Drops inside the headlight mean water infiltration: contact Fiat Dealership.

TYPES OF BULBS

Various types of bulbs are fitted to your car:

(A) All glass bulbs: these are pressed on. Pull to remove.
(B) Bayonet type bulbs: press the bulb, and turn counterclockwise to remove this type of bulb from its holder.
(C) Tubular bulbs: free them from their contacts to remove.
(D) Halogen bulbs: to remove, free it from the clip on its housing.

SCHEDULED SERVICING

Correct maintenance is essential for ensuring long car life under the best conditions.

This is why Fiat has programmed a series of checks and maintenance operations every 20,000 km.

It is however important to remember that scheduled servicing does not completely cover all the car's requirements: also in the initial period before 20,000 km service coupon and later, between one coupon and another, ordinary care is still required such as for example routine check and topping up the level of fluids, tyre pressure check, etc...

IMPORTANT The Programmed Maintenance coupons are specified by the Manufacturer. The failure to have them carried out may invalidate the warranty.

Scheduled Servicing is performed by all Fiat Dealership, at pre-established times.

If during each operation, in addition to the ones programmed, the need arises for further replacements or repairs, these may be carried out only with the explicit agreement of the Customer.

IMPORTANT You are advised to contact Fiat Dealership in the event of any minor operating faults, without waiting for the next service coupon.

If your car is used frequently for towing, the interval between one service coupon and the other must be reduced.

IMPORTANT - Engine oil

Should prevailing use of the car be under one of the following specially heavy conditions:

□ trailer or caravan towing;
□ dusty roads;
☐ short distances (less than 7-8 km) repeated and with external temperatures below zero;
☐ frequently idling engines or long distance low speed driving (e.g. taxis or door-to-door deliveries) or in case of a long term inactivity;

replace engine oil more frequently than required on "Service schedule".

IMPORTANT - Air cleaner

If the car is used on dusty roads change the air cleaner more frequently than the indications in the “Service schedule”.

If in doubt as to how often the engine oil and air cleaner should be changed according to how you use the car, contact a Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT - Pollen filter

If the vehicle is used frequently in dusty or heavily polluted environments it is advisable to replace the filtering element more frequently; in particular it should be replaced if a reduction of the amount of air admitted to the passenger compartment is noted.

IMPORTANT - Diesel filter

The possibility of topping up with diesel fuel not complying with EN590 European Norm might make it necessary to replace the filter more frequently than indicated in the “Service schedule”.

IMPORTANT - Battery

The charge in the battery should be checked at the start of winter to limit the risk of electrolyte freezing.

This check should be carried out more frequently if the car is used mainly for short trips, or if it is fitted with accessories that permanently absorb electricity even with the ignition key removed, especially in the case of after market accessories. If the car is used in hot climates or particularly harsh conditions it is wise to check the level of the battery fluid (electrolyte) more frequently than specified in the “Service schedule” in this section.

Car maintenance should be entrusted to Fiat Dealership. For routine and minor maintenance operations you wish to carry out yourself, always make sure you have the proper equipment, genuine Fiat spare parts and the necessary fluids; do not however carry out these operations if you have no experience.

ENGINE OIL

Checking engine oil

Check the oil level a few minutes (about 5) after the engine has stopped, with the car parked on level ground.

Check that the level is within the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick. The interval between the MIN and MAX marks corresponds to about one litre of oil.

Topping up engine oil

If the oil level is near or even below the MIN mark, add oil through the filler neck, until reaching the MAX mark. Oil level shall never exceed the MAX mark.

IMPORTANT If a routine check reveals that the oil level is above the MAX mark, contact Fiat Dealership to have the correct level restored.

IMPORTANT After adding or changing the oil, let the engine turn over for a few seconds and wait a few minutes after turning it off before you check the level.

Engine oil consumption

Max engine oil consumption is usually 400 grams every 1000 km.

When the car is new, the engine needs to run in, therefore the engine oil consumption can only be considered stabilised after the first 5000 - 6000 km.

IMPORTANT The oil consumption depends on driving style and the conditions under which the car is used.

IMPORTANT Do not add oil with specifications other than that already in the engine.

WARNING

When the engine is hot, take care when working inside the engine compartment to avoid burns. Remember that when the engine is hot, the fan may cut in: danger of injury. Scarves, ties and other loose clothing might be pulled by moving parts.

Used engine oil and filter contain harmful substances for the environment. Contact Fiat Dealership to have the oil and filter changed.

ENGINE COOLANT FLUID

The coolant level shall be checked with cold engine and shall be included between the MIN and MAX mark on the reservoir.

If the level is low, pour slowly a mixture of 50% distilled water and 50% FL Selenia PARAFLU UP through the filler neck.

A 50-50 mixture of PARAFLU UP and distilled water gives freeze protection to -35^ .

Do not remove the reservoir cap when the engine is hot: you risk scalding yourself.

MAX MIN F010054m

The cooling system uses PARAFLU UP antifreeze. Do not add fluid having different specifications from that already existing. PARAFLU UP cannot be mixed with other types of fluids. Should other fluids be added, do not start the engine and contact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.

MAX MIN F010147m

WARNING

Do not remove the reservoir cap when the engine is hot: you risk scalding yourself.

WARNING

The cooling system is pressurised. If necessary, replace the cap only with another genuine one, otherwise system efficiency could be compromised.

A F010145m

WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW/HEADLIGHT WASHER FLUID

To top up, remove the cap (A) and then pour a mixture of water and TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35, in the following concentrations:

☐ 30% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 70% water in summer;
☐ 50% TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 and 50% water in winter.

In case of temperatures below -20^ , use undiluted TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35.

Check level through the reservoir.

WARNING

Do not travel with the windscreen washer reservoir empty: the windscreen washer is fundamental for improving visibility.

WARNING

Certain commercial additives for windscreen washers are inflammable. The engine compartment contains hot components which may set it on fire.

BRAKE FLUID

Unscrew cap and check that the fluid level in the reservoir is at maximum.

Fluid level in the reservoir shall not exceed the MAX mark.

If fluid has to be added, it is suggested to use the brake fluid in table "Fluids and lubricants" (see chapter "Technical specifications"). When opening cap take the utmost care to prevent impurities entering the tank.

For topping up, always use a funnel with integrated filter with mesh equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.

IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs moisture; for this reason, if the car is mainly used in areas with a high degree of atmospheric humidity, the fluid should be replaced at more frequent intervals than specified in the "Service schedule".

DIESEL FUEL FILTER

DRAINING THE CONDENSE (diesel versions)

The presence of water in the fuel circuit may cause serious damage to the entire injection system and cause irregular engine operation. If warning light ☐ or △ comes on the dial (on certain versions a message is displayed on the reconfigurable multifunction display), contact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have the system relieved. Should the above warning indication come one immediately after topping up, water has probably been poured into the tank: turn the engine off immediately and contact Fiat Dealership.

BATTERY

The battery is of the “Limited maintenance” type: under normal conditions of use the electrolyte does not need topping up with distilled water.

CHECKING THE CHARGE

The battery charge may be checked through the indicator (where fitted) set on the battery cover and acting according to the colour the indicator shows. If the battery is not fitted with electrolyte level indicator, the relevant checks must only be carried out by authorised personnel. To check the battery charge, slacken the two fastening screws and open the cover. Check the battery charge and then reclose the cover, take care to prevent pinching and short circuits. Refer to the table below or to the label on the battery (see figure).

Bright white colour	Top up electrolyte	Contact Fiat Dealership
Dark colour without green area in the centre	Low charge level	Charge the battery (advisable to contact Fiat Dealership)
Dark colour with green area in the centre	Electrolyte level and charge sufficient	No action

WARNING

The liquid in the battery is poisonous and corrosive. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Do not bring naked flames or possible sources of sparks near to the battery: risk of fire and explosion.

WARNING

Running the battery with low fluid level can damage the battery beyond repair and could also cause its explosion.

CHANGING THE BATTERY

If required, replace the battery with a genuine spare part having the same specifications.

If a battery with different specifications is fitted, the service intervals given in the “Service schedule” in this section will no longer be valid. Refer to the instructions provided by the battery manufacturer.

Incorrect fitting of electrical and electronic accessories can seriously damage the car. If after buying the car, you want to install electric accessories which require permanent electric supply (alarm, sound system, free-hand phone kit, etc.) contact Fiat Dealership whose qualified personnel, in addition to suggesting the most suitable devices, will evaluate the overall electric absorption, checking whether the car's electric system is capable of withstanding the load required, or whether it should be integrated with a more powerful battery.

Batteries contain substances that are very harmful for the environment. You are advised to have the battery changed at a Fiat Dealership, which is properly equipped for disposing of used batteries respecting nature and the law.

WARNING

If the car is left inactive for long periods at cold, remove the battery and store it in a warm place to prevent freezing.

WARNING

When working on the battery or near it, always wear the proper goggles.

USEFUL ADVICE FOR LENGTHENING THE LIFE OF YOUR BATTERY

To avoid draining your battery and lengthen its life, observe the following indications:

☐ when you park the car, ensure the doors, tailgate and bonnet are closed properly;
☐ the ceiling lights must be off. The car is however provided with an automatic system for switching off internal lights;
☐ do not keep accessories (e.g.: sound system, hazard lights, etc.) switched on for a long time when the engine is not running;
□ before performing any operation on the electrical system, disconnect the battery negative cable;
☐ battery terminals shall always be perfectly tightened.

IMPORTANT A battery which is kept at a charge of less than 50% (optical indicator with dark colour without green area in the middle) for any length of time will be damaged by sulphation leading to a reduction in cranking power. Moreover, this might lead to a higher risk of the battery electrolyte freezing (this may even occur at -10^ ).

If the car is left inactive for a long period of time, refer to “Car inactivity”, in section “Correct use of the car”.

If after buying the car, you want to install electric accessories which require permanent electric supply (alarm, free-hands set, etc.) contact Fiat Dealership whose qualified personnel, in addition to suggesting the most suitable devices, will evaluate the overall electric absorption, checking whether the car's electric system is capable of withstanding the load required, or whether it should be integrated with a more powerful battery.

In fact, since these devices continue absorbing energy even when the ignition key is off, they gradually run down the battery.

The total intake of these systems (factory and aftermarket) must be less than 0.6 mA x Ah (of the battery) as shown in the following table:

Battery Maximum admitted
	stand-by intake
40 Ah 24 mA
44 Ah 27 mA
50 Ah 30 mA

WHEELS AND TYRES

Check the pressure of each tyre, including the spare, every two weeks and before long journeys. The pressure should be checked with the tyre rested and cold.

For the correct tyre inflation pressure, see “Wheels” in “Technical specifications” section.

Incorrect pressure causes abnormal tyre wear:

(A): normal pressure: tread evenly worn.
(B): low pressure: tread particularly worn at the edges.
(C): high pressure: tread particularly worn in the centre.

Tyres must be replaced when the tread wears down to 1,6 mm. In any case, comply with the laws in the country where the car is being driven.

IMPORTANT NOTES

☐ As far as possible, avoid sharp braking and screech starts, etc. Be careful not to hit the kerb, potholes or other obstacles hard. Driving for long stretches over bumpy roads can damage the tyres;
☐ Periodically check that the tyres have no cuts in the side wall, abnormal swelling or irregular tyre wear. If any of these occur, have the car seen to at a Fiat Dealership;

A B C F010177m

☐ Avoid overloading the vehicle when travelling: this may cause serious damage to the wheels and tyres;
☐ If a tyre is punctured, stop immediately and change it to avoid damage to the tyre, the rim, suspensions and steering system;
☐ Tyres age even if they are not used much. Cracks in the tread rubber are a sign of ageing. In any case, if the tyres have been on the car for over 6 years, they should be checked by specialised personnel, to see if they can still be used. Also remember to check the spare wheel;

☐ In the case of replacement, always fit new tyres, avoiding those of dubious origin;
☐ If a tyre is changed, also change the inflation valve;
☐ To allow even wear between the front and rear tyres, it is advisable to change them over every 10-15 thousand kilometres, keeping them on the same side of the car so as to not reverse the direction of rotation.

WARNING

Remember that road holding depends also on the correct tyre inflating pressure.

WARNING

If the pressure is too low the tyre overheats and this can cause it serious damage.

WARNING

Do not cross switch the tyres, moving them from the right of the car to the left and vice versa.

WARNING

Never submit alloy rims to repainting treatments requiring to use temperatures exceeding 150^ C since the mechanical properties of the wheels could be impaired.

RUBBER HOSES

As far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are concerned, carefully follow the “Service schedule” in this section.

Indeed ozone, high temperatures and prolonged lack of fluid in the system may cause hardening and cracking of the hoses, with possible leaks. Careful control is therefore necessary.

WINDSCREEN/ REAR WINDOW WIPERS

BLADES

Periodically clean the rubber part using special products; TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended.

If the rubber blades are bent or worn they should be replaced. In any case they should be changed once a year.

A few simple notions can reduce the possibility of damage to the blades:

☐ if the temperature fall below zero, make sure that ice has not frozen the rubber against glass. If necessary, thaw using an antifreeze product;
☐ remove any snow from the glass: in addition to protecting the blades, this prevents effort on the motor and overheating;
☐ do not operate the windscreen and rear window wipers on dry glass.

WARNING

Driving with worn wiper blades is a serious hazard, because visibility is reduced in bad weather.

A B F010181m

F010182m

Changing the windscreen wiper blades

Proceed as follows:

☐ raise the windscreen wiper arm (A) and position the blade so that it forms an angle of 90^ with the arm;
☐ press tab (B) of the coupling spring and remove the blade to be replaced from the arm (A);
☐ fit the new blade by inserting the tab into the special slot in the arm. Make sure it is properly locked into place.

Changing the rear window blade

Proceed as follows:

☐ raise the cover(A) and remove the arm from the car, slackening the nut (B) that fastens it to the pivot pin;
☐ fit the new arm, positioning it correctly, and fully tighten the nut;
☐ lower the cover.

SPRAY NOZZLES

Windscreen wiper

If the jet of fluid is inadequate, firstly check that there is fluid in the reservoir: see "Checking fluid levels" in this section).

Then check that the nozzle holes are not clogged, if necessary use a needle.

The windscreen jets are directed by adjusting the angle of the nozzles: turn the nozzle cylinder by inserting a screwdriver in (A).

Fluid jets shall be directed at about 1/3 height from the window upper edge.

Rear window wiper

Rear window washer jets can be adjusted in the same way. The nozzle holder is on the rear window.

BODYWORK

PROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS

The main causes of corrosion are the following:

□ atmospheric pollution;
☐ salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid climates);
□ seasonal environment conditions.

Not to be underestimated is also the abrasive action of wind-borne atmospheric dust and sand and mud and gravel raised by other vehicles.

On your Fiat Punto, Fiat implemented the best manufacturing technologies to effectively protect the bodywork against corrosion.

These include:

□ Painting products and systems which give the car particular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
☐ Use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets, with high resistance to corrosion;
□ Spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheelhouse internal parts and other parts with highly protective wax products;
□ Spraying of plastic parts, with a protective function, in the more exposed points: underdoor, inner fender parts, edges, etc.;
☐ Use of “open” boxed sections to prevent condensation and pockets of moisture from triggering rust inside.

BODY AND UNDERBODY WARRANTY

Your Fiat Punto is covered by warranty against perforation due to rust of any original element of the structure or body. For the general terms of this warranty, refer to Warranty Booklet booklet.

ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE BODYWORK

Paint

Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic purpose, but also protects the underlying sheet metal.

In the case of deep scrapes or scores, you are advised to have the necessary touching up carried out immediately to avoid the formation of rust. Use only original paint products for touching up (see "Bodywork paint identification plate" in "Technical specification" section).

Normal paint maintenance consists in washing at intervals depending on the conditions and environment of use. For example, in highly polluted areas, or if the roads are sprayed with salt, it is wise to wash the car more frequently.

To correctly wash the car:

☐ remove the aerial from the roof to prevent damage to it if the car is washed in an automatic system;
☐ wash the body using a low pressure jet of water;

☐ wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy solution over the bodywork, frequently rinsing with the sponge;
☐ rinse well with water and dry with a jet of air or a chamois leather.

When drying, take particular care with the less visible parts like door surrounds, bonnet and around the headlights where water may stagnate. The car should not be taken to a closed area immediately, but left in the open so that residual water can evaporate.

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.

Where possible, do not park under trees; the resinous substance many species release give the paint a dull appearance and increase the possibility of triggering rust processes.

IMPORTANT Bird droppings must be washed off immediately and thoroughly as the acid they contain is particularly aggressive.

Detergents cause water pollution. Therefore the engine compartment should be washed in areas equipped for collecting and purifying the liquid used in the washing process.

Front headlights

IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.: petrol) or ketones (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front headlight plastic lens.

Windows

Use specific window cleaner products. Use also clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or damaging the transparency.

IMPORTANT The inside of the rearscreen should be wiped gently with a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid damaging the heating device.

Engine compartment

At the end of the winter the engine compartment should be carefully washed, without directing the jet against electronic control units. Contact a specialised workshop to have this done.

IMPORTANT The car should be washed with the engine cold and the ignition key at STOP. After washing make sure that the various protections (e.g.: rubber caps and various covers) have not been damaged or removed.

INTERIORS

Periodically check that water is not trapped under the mats (due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which could cause oxidisation of the sheet metal.

CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC AND VELVET PARTS

Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust. Velvet is cleaned better if the brush is moistened.

Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution of water and neutral detergent.

WARNING

Never use inflammable products like fuel oil ether or rectified petrol for cleaning inside the car. The electrostatic discharges generated when rubbing to clean may cause fire.

CLEANING LEATHER SEATS

Remove dried on dirt with lightly moistened chamois leather or cloth without pressing too hard.

Remove liquid or grease stains with a dry absorbent cloth without rubbing. Then wipe with a soft cloth or chamois leather with water and neutral soap.

If the stain persists, use specific products, carefully following the instructions for use.

IMPORTANT Never use alcohol. Make sure that cleaning products do not contain alcohol and alcohol derivatives even at low strength.

INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS

For routine cleaning of interior plastic parts use a soft cloth moistened with water and neutral soap. Remove grease or persisting stains using appropriate solvent-free products designed to preserve appearance and colour of plastic components.

IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petroleum to clean the instrument panel or other plastic parts.

WARNING

Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they might explode. Aerosol cans must never be exposed to a temperature above 50^ C. The temperature inside the car exposed to the sun may go well beyond that figure.

FUEL CONSUMPTION

The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the homologation tests set down by specific European Directives.

The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:

☐ urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
□ extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car; the speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
☐ combined consumption: is calculated weighing about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about 63% of extraurban consumption.

IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, load, climate control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than those measured.

PROVISIONS FOR THE PROCESSING OF A VEHICLE AT THE END OF ITS LIFE-CYCLE

For years now Fiat has been developing its global commitment towards the safeguarding and protection of the Environment through the continuous improvement of its production processes and the making of increasingly more “eco friendly” products. With a view to guaranteeing the best possible service to clients in full observance of environmental standards and in response to the obligations imposed by European Directive 2000/53/EC on end-of-life vehicles, Fiat offers its clients the possibility to hand in their vehicle* at the end of its life span without additional costs.

The European Directive, in fact, provides for the take-back of the vehicle without the last holder or owner of the same incurring expenses due to the fact that the market value of the vehicle is zero or negative. In particular, in almost all of the countries of the European Union, up until 1st January 2007, take-back of the vehicle free of charge only applies to vehicles registered from 1 July 2002 on, while, from 2007 on, take-back will be carried out free of charge, independently of the year of registration, provided that the vehicle still contains all its essential component parts (especially engine and body) and is free from additional waste materials.

Our contracted network of authorised treatment facilities has been carefully selected in order to provide a quality service to our customers by de-polluting and recycling “End of Life Vehicles” to approved environmental standards.
