which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore allWARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSmust always be carefully followed.
WARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSare recalled in the text with the following symbols:
personal safety;
vehicle integrity;
environmental protection.
NOTE These symbols, when necessary, are indicated besides the title or at the end of the line and are followed by a number.

IMPORTANT
This Owner Handbook describes all Fiat Talento versions. Options, equipment dedicated to specific markets or
versions are not explicitly indicated in the text: as a consequence, you should only consider the information which
is related to the trim level, engine and version that you have purchased. Any content introduced throughout the
production of the model, outside the explicit request of options at the time of purchase, will be identified with the
wording (for versions/markets, where provided).
All data contained in this publication are intended to help you use your vehicle in the best possible way. FCA Italy
S.p.A. aims at a constant improvement of the vehicles produced. For this reason it reserves the right to make

To mount the tow hook, refer to the
device manufacturer’s installation
instructions.
148) 149)
IMPORTANT Always remove the tow
hook when not in use. In any case, the
local laws in force must be observed in
all cases.
IMPORTANT Refer to the “Weights”
paragraph of the “Technical data”
chapter to find out the maximum
allowed load. We recommend keeping
the instructions provided by the device
manufacturer with the other vehicle
documents.
WARNING
148)The ABS with which the vehicle may
be equipped will not control the trailer's
braking system. Particular caution is
required on slippery roads.
149)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent from the hydraulic system of
the vehicle.
LOADING ADVICE
Transporting items in the load
compartment
Depending on the vehicle, rings 1 and 2
fig. 212 and 1 fig. 213 prevent the
transported items from moving. The
number of rings and their locations may
vary, depending on the vehicle.
IMPORTANT The rings 1
fig. 212 fig. 213 serve exclusively to
prevent the load from moving. The load
must be previously fastened to the rings
2 fig. 212 on the vehicle's platform.

SERVICE SCHEDULE
The checks listed in the Scheduled Servicing Plan, after reaching 120,000 km/6 years, must be cyclically repeated starting from
the first interval, thus following the same intervals as before.
Years246810
Check tyre condition/wear and pressure adjustment, if
necessary; check the quick "Tyre inflation kit" recharge
expiry date/condition (for versions/markets, where
provided)
Check operation of lighting system (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard warning lights, boot, passenger
compartment, glove compartment, instrument panel
warning lights, etc.)
Check and, if necessary, top up fluid levels(1) (2)
Check exhaust emissions/smokiness
Use the diagnosis socket to check supply/engine
management systems operation, emissions and, for
versions/markets, where provided, engine oil degradation
Visually inspect the condition of: bodywork, underbody
protection, pipes and hoses (exhaust - fuel - brakes),
rubber parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.)
Check windscreen/rearscreen wiper blade position/wear
(for markets/versions, where present)
(1) Top up using the fluids indicated in the “Fluids and lubricants” paragraph of the “Technical data” chapter and only after checking that the system is intact.
(2) Consumption of additive for AdBlue (Urea) emissions depends on the condition of use of the vehicle and is indicated by a warning light and message onthe
instrument panel (for versions/markets, where provided).

Unscrew cap 1 fig. 266;
restore the level (the approximate
amount to get between the dipstick 2
"min" and "max" levels is about 1.5 and
2 litres, depending on the engine);
wait about 10 seconds to let the oil
flow in the circuit;
check the level with the dipstick 2
fig. 266 (as described above).
Once the operation is done, insert the
dipstick as far as it will go or screw the
cap back on completely.
IMPORTANT To avoid splashing, use a
funnel when topping up/filling up.
IMPORTANT Never exceed the "max"
level and do not forget to put the cap
1 back on and dipstick 2 fig. 266 in
place.

Change engine oil
Contact a Fiat Dealership.Amount of oil to replace
Always check the oil level with the
dipstick (it must never be below the
MIN level nor above the MAX level).
Engine oil quality
Refer to the “Fluids and lubricants”
paragraph on the “Technical data”
chapter.
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.
BRAKE FLUID
The level is checked with the engine
stopped and on a horizontal surface.
It has to be checked often and in any
case every time there is a minimum
variation in the braking system.
Level 2 fig. 267
The level must never drop below the
“MIN” threshold.

Filling
Every operation on the hydraulic circuit
involves replacing the fluid by a
specialised technician.
Use an approved fluid only (taken from
a new pack).
Replacement of
Refer to the Scheduled Service Plan (in
this chapter).
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.
COOLANT LIQUID
With the engine off, on a level surface,
the cold level should be between "MIN"
and "MAX" indicated on tank 1 fig. 268.
IMPORTANT In case of unusual,
repeated drop, see a Fiat Dealership.

B: front tyre inflation pressure when
not driving on a highway, or when there
are fewer than four people on board.
C: rear tyre pressure inflation when
not driving on a highway, or when there
are fewer than four people on board.
D: pressure inflation for front tyres
when travelling on a highway or when
there is a significant load.
E: pressure inflation for rear tyres
when travelling on a highway or when
there is a significant load.
IMPORTANT For cars used at full load
(Maximum Authorised Mass) and with a
tow trailer, the maximum speed must
not exceed 100 km/h and the tyre
pressure must be increased by 0.2 bar.
Refer to the “Weights” paragraph on
the “Technical data” chapter.Risk of
tyres bursting.
SPARE TYRE
Please see the paragraph "Replacing a
tyre" in the "Emergency" chapter.
SUGGESTIONS ABOUT
THE ROTATION OF THE
TYRES
We advise you not to do this kind of
operation.
WINTER USE
55) 56) 57) 58)
Chains
For safety reasons, mounting snow
chains on the rear axle is prohibited.
The use of larger sized tyres than the
original ones makes fitting chains
impossible.Snow tyres
We advise you to fit these tyres to
guarantee the best vehicle grip
possible.
IMPORTANT These tyres sometimes
mean a maximum speed limit that may
be less than vehicle’s maximum speed.
Studded tyres
(For versions/markets where provided)
This type of tyre can only be used for a
limited period determined by local laws.
You need to respect the speed limits
imposed by local laws in effect.
These tyres can be fitted on at least
both front wheels.
In any case, it is advisable to
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
206)Insufficient pressure can cause the
tyres to wear early and heat up abnormally,
with obvious consequences for safety;
poor road grip, risk of blow-out or treads
detaching. Inflation pressure depends on
the load and the speed. Adjust the
pressure according to the conditions of
use (see the label located on the inside of
the driver's door pillar).
207)For safety reasons, only a specialised
technician should carry out this operation.
Fitting a different type of tyre can alter the
vehicle's compliance with the regulations in
force, cornering performance, steering and
fitting snow chains.
