Engine failure FIAT TALENTO 2016 2.G Owners Manual

Impossibility to maintain speed
In the event of a steep slope, the speed
cannot be respected by the system: the
stored speed will flash on the
instrument panel to inform you of this.
Placing the function in stand-by
The function can be suspended:
by pressing button 5 (O) fig. 150;
by using the brake pedal;
by using the clutch pedal.
In the three cases, the speed stays
stored and the message to that effect
appears on the display screen.
Activation is confirmed when the light
goes off
.
Recalling the stored speed limit
If you have stored a speed, you can
recall it, after making sure the driving
conditions allow it (traffic, roadbed
conditions, weather, etc.). Press button4 fig. 150 if the vehicle speed is over
30 km/h. When recalling a stored
speed, the activation is confirmed when
the warning light goes on
.
NOTE If the preceding stored speed is
much higher than the present speed,
the vehicle will accelerate powerfully up
to this limit.
IMPORTANT When the function is in
stand-by, pressing switch 2 fig. 150 will
reactivate the regulator function without
taking into account the stored speed:
the speed the vehicle is travelling will be
used.
Interrupting the function
The function can be disengaged by
pressing button 1 fig. 151. The green
lights turning off
andon the
instrument panel confirm the function
has been deactivated.

WARNING
74)The Cruise Control does not impact the
braking system in any case.
75)It provides a supplementary driving aid.
However, it does not replace the driver. It
cannot take the place of local speed limit
observations, attentiveness (always be
ready to brake) or driver responsibility. The
Cruise Control must not be used when
traffic is heavy, on winding or slippery
roads (ice, aquaplaning, gravel) or when
weather conditions are unfavourable (fog,
rain, wind gusts, etc.). Risk of accident.
76)Be careful: we advise you to keep your
feet near the pedals so they are ready to
intervene in an emergency.
77)When travelling with the device active,
never move the gear lever to neutral.
78)Putting the engine in stand-by or
deactivating the Cruise Control does not
rapidly lower the speed: you need to brake
using the brake pedal.
79)In case of a malfunction or failure of the
device, contact a Fiat Dealership.
80)The electronic Cruise Control can be
dangerous if the system cannot keep a
constant speed. In specific conditions
speed may be excessive, resulting in the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and
causing accidents. Do not use the device
in heavy traffic or on winding, icy, snowy or
slippery roads.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
Temperature of the exhaust gases
The system controlling the exhaust lets
you identify the malfunctions of the
vehicle's anti-pollution device. These
faults can cause an excess in polluting
emissions and cause mechanical
damage.
This warning light on the instrument
panel indicates any system function
failure:
If it stays on, contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible;
If it flashes, you need to reduce the
engine running until the flashing stops.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
Refer to the information in the "AdBblue
additive tank" paragraph in the
"Knowing your vehicle" chapter.
The vehicle was designed with
environmental friendliness in mind for its
entire life cycle: from manufacture to
use up to the end of its life cycle. This
commitment is demonstrated by the
writing eco
2.Manufacture
The vehicle's manufacture has been
carried out at an industrial factory that
applies advanced procedures aimed at
environmental impact reduction with
respect to the inhabitants and nature in
the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and power consumption,
atmospheric and water emissions,
disposal and evaluation of waste.
Emissions
While it is being used, the vehicle was
designed to emit a lower quantity of
greenhouse gasses (CO
2) and
therefore lower consumption (ex.:
170 g/km amounts to 6.4 l/100 km for
a Diesel vehicle).
Moreover, the vehicles are equipped
with anti-pollution systems such as the
catalytic exhaust, oxygen sensor, etc.
For some vehicles, this system is
rounded out with an anti-particulate
filter that allows a reduction in particle
emissions.
Used and replaced parts on sale during
regular servicing (battery, oil filter, air
filter, batteries, etc.) and oil tanks (both
empty and full of used oil) must be
delivered to specialised waste disposal
consortiums.To hand the vehicle over at the end of
its life without extra cost, contact one of
our dealerships if you are purchasing
another vehicle or an FCA-authorised
collection and scrapping centre. These
centres have been carefully chosen to
offer high quality service for the
collection, treatment and recycling of
vehicles at their end of life, respecting
the surrounding environment.
Recyclability
The vehicle is 85% recyclable and 95%
recoverable.
To achieve these aims, several of the
vehicle's parts have been designed so
they can be recycled. The structure and
materials have been especially studied
to facilitate dismantling of these
components and their re-treatment in
specific chains.
In order to preserve raw material
resources, the vehicle incorporates
several parts in recycled plastic or
renewable materials (plant or animal like
cotton or wool).
