Brake FIAT PANDA 2013 319 / 3.G Owner's Manual

STORING THE CARIf the car is to be left inactive for longer than a
month, the following precautions should be taken:
❒park the car in covered, dry and if possible
well-ventilated premises and slightly open
the windows;
❒engage a gear and check that the handbrake is not
engaged;
❒disconnect the negative battery terminal (for
versions with Start&Stop system refer to the
paragraph "Start&Stop system" in the chapter
"Knowing your car"); If the battery is not
disconnected from the electrical system, check its
charge every thirty days;
❒clean and protect the painted parts using
protective wax;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts using
special compounds available commercially;❒sprinkle talcum powder on the windscreen and
rear window wiper rubber blades and lift them
off the glass;
❒cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGESGENERAL WARNINGS
Warning lights are accompanied by a specific message
and/or acoustic warning where provided by the
control panel. These indications areconcise and
precautionaryand, as such, must not be
considered as exhaustive and/or an alternative to the
information contained in this Owner Handbook,
which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. In
the event of a failure indication,always refer to
the contents of this section.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided
into two categories:very seriousandless serious
failures.
Very seriousfailures are indicated by a repeated
and prolonged warning "cycle".
Less seriousfailures are indicated by a shorter
warning "cycle".
The display cycle of both categories can be
interrupted by pressing the
button. The
instrument panel warning light will stay on until the
cause of the malfunction is eliminated.
BRAKE FLUID LOW (red) /
HANDBRAKE ENGAGED (red)
Turning the key to MAR switches on the warning
light, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
LOW BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
The warning light switches on when the level of the
brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum
level due to a possible leak in the circuit. On some
versions the display shows the dedicated message.
WARNING
If the
warning light switches on while
driving, stop immediately and contact
a Fiat Dealership.
HANDBRAKE ENGAGED
When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light
switches on but should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light (or symbol on the display) switches
on when the handbrake is engaged. If the car is in
motion, there will also be an acoustic warning.

IMPORTANT If the warning light comes on when the
vehicle is in motion, check that the handbrake is
not engaged.
EBD FAILURE (red)
(amber)
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red),
(amber) and
(amber) warning lights with the
engine on, indicates either a failure of the EBD
system or that the system is not available. In this
case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the
vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. Drive very
carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership to have the
system inspected immediately. On some versions the
display shows the dedicated message.
ABS FAILURE (amber)
Turning the key to MAR switches on the warning
light, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
The warning light switches on (on some versions,
with a message on the display and a symbol on
the display) when the system is not efficient. In this
case the braking system maintains its own efficiency
unaltered but without the advantage of the ABS
system. Drive carefully and contact a Fiat Dealership
as soon as possible.
AIRBAG FAILURE (red)
Turning the key to MAR switches on the warning
light, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
The warning light switches on constantly (on some
versions, with a message on the display and a symbol
on the display) to indicate an airbag system fault.
WARNING
If, when turning the key to MAR, the
warning light
does not switch on or
stays on whilst driving, a fault may be present in
the restraint systems. In this case the airbags
or pretensioners may not be deployed in an
impact or, in a lower number of cases, they may
be deployed accidentally. Before continuing,
contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.

Never use a fast batter y-charger to star t
the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your car, par ticularly
the ignition and fuel supply control units.
WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
exper t personnel because incorrect
actions could cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. Furthermore, battery
fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid contact
with 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.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake servo and
electrical power steering system are not active until
the engine is started. A much greater effort will
therefore be required to use the brake pedal or turn
the steering wheel.
CHANGING A WHEELGENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The car is equipped with the “FIX&GO Automatic
Kit”: see the paragraph “FIX&GO Automatic Kit” for
how to use this device. As an alternative to the
“FIX&GO Automatic Kit” the car may be equipped
with a space-saver wheel: see the instructions on the
following pages for changing the tyre.
WARNING
The space-saver wheel (for versions/
markets where provided) is specific to
your car, do not use it on other models, or use
the space-saver wheel of other models on your
car.The space-saver wheel must only be used
in case of emergency. It must only be used
for the distance necessary to reach a service
point and the car speed must not exceed 80
km/h.The space-saver wheel has an orange
sticker that summarises the main cautions for
use and limitations. Never remove or cover
the label.The following information is provided
in four languages on the label: "Important!
For temporar y use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
with a standard tire as soon as possible. Never
cover this indication." Never apply a wheel
cap on a space-saver wheel.

Important notes:
❒the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired and 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 must be flat and sufficiently
compact;
❒switch off the engine, pull up the handbrake and

❒using the wrench A fig. 112 located in the tool
box, loosen the locking device, take the tool box B
and place it close to the wheel to be replaced.
Then take the space-saver wheel C;
❒take the wrench A fig. 113 and loosen the fixing
bolts by about one turn;
❒position the jack under the car, near the wheel to
be changed;❒operate the device A fig. 114 to extend the jack
until the top of the jack B fig. 115 fits correctly
into the side member C (next to the mark
on
the side member);
❒alert other passengers that the car is about to be

power socket in the central tunnel fig. 122 and
operate the compressor turning switch A to
position I (on). Inflate the tyre to the pressure
specified in the "Inflation pressure" paragraph in
the "Technical specifications" section. Check tyre
pressure on gauge B fig. 121 with compressor
off to obtain a more precise reading;
❒if after five minutes it is still impossible to reach at
least 1.8 bar, disengage the compressor from the
valve and power socket, then move the car
forwards by approx. ten metres in order
to distribute the sealing fluid inside the tyre evenly,
