steering FIAT TALENTO 2020 Owner handbook (in English)

221)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.
222)For safety and to respect legislation in
force, when replacement is necessary, you
must only fit the same brand, size, type
and structure tyres on the same axles.
They have to have a load and speed
capacity that is at least identical to the
original tyres, or they correspond to those
recommended by a Fiat Dealership. Failure
to observe these instructions can
compromise safety and vehicle
compliance. Risk of losing control of the
vehicle.
223)If the tyres are "unidirectional", do not
switch tyres from the right-hand side of the
vehicle to the left-hand side, and vice
versa. This type of tyres can only be
switched from the front axle to the rear axle
and vice versa, keeping them on the same
side of the vehicle.
224)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
IMPORTANT
53)Some driving accidents, such as
"hitting the curbstone" can damage the
tyres and change the front or rear end
adjustments. In that case, have them
checked by a Fiat Dealership.54)Caution, a missing or badly screwed on
valve cap could impact the tyre's grip and
cause a loss of pressure. Always use valve
caps that are identical to the original ones
and make sure that they are screwed on
fully.
55)Snow chains cannot be fitted with 17”
tyres, you must obtain specific equipment
from the Fiat Dealership.
56)Snow chains can only be fit on tyres of
the same dimensions as those originally on
the vehicle.
57)If you want to fit chains, you must
obtain specific ones. Consult a Fiat
Dealership.
58)Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h.
Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or
pavements, and do not drive long
distances over roads without snow, to
avoid damaging both your vehicle and the
road surface.
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WIPER
WIPER BLADES
IMPORTANT Check the status of the
wiper blades. Their duraton depends on
proper maintenance:
clean both windscreen and rear
window wipers regularly with soapy
water;
do not use them when the
windscreen and rear window are dry;
detach them from the windscreen or
rear window if they have not been used
for a long time.
59) 60) 61)
Replacing wiper blades with the
starter device inserted, engine
stopped:
completely lower the wiper arm;
lift up the wiper arms 1 and 2

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Using the starter motor
The instrument panel
warning lights
are dim or do not turn on, the starter
motor does not turn over.Battery terminal loose, disconnected or
rusted.Tighten it, reconnect it or clean it if it is rusted.
Battery run down or out of order.Connect another battery to the defective one. See the
paragraph "Emergency starting" or replace the battery if
necessary. Do not push the vehicle if the steering wheel
lock is engaged.
Circuit defective. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
The engine does not start.Starting conditions were not satisfied.Refer to the “Starting the engine” paragraph in the
“Knowing your vehicle” chapter.
The electronic key "easy access" does
not work.Insert the key in the reader to start the engine. Refer to the
“Starting the engine” paragraph in the “Knowing your
vehicle” chapter.
The engine does not stop.Electronic key not recognised. Insert key into the reader.
Electronic problem. Press the starter button five times in a row, quickly.
The steering wheel stays locked.Steering wheel locked.Turn the steering wheel and press the start button at the
same time (refer to the "Starting the engine” paragraph in
the “Knowing your vehicle” chapter).
Circuit defective. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
During driving
White smoke coming from the exhaust
pipe.This does not necessarily indicate a
defect: the smoke comes from
regenerating the particulate filter.Please see the paragraph "Details about the Diesel
version".
Smoke coming from underneath the
vehicle when starting the heating.This does not necessarily indicate a
fault: the smoke comes from the boiler.
In this case, the smoke will gradually
disappear when the passenger
compartment has reached the right
temperature.
222
TECHNICAL DATA

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Smoke coming from the engine
compartment.Short circuit or leaks from the cooling
circuit.Stop, remove the starter device, move away from the
vehicle and contact a Fiat Dealership.
The oil pressure warning light goes on
in a curve or when braking.The oil level is too low.Add engine oil (see the paragraph "Warning lights and
messages" in the chapter "Knowing the instrument
panel").
The oil pressure warning light goes on
and delays going off or stays on when
you accelerate.Low oil pressure. Stop and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Steering becomes hard.Power steering is overheating.
Drive carefully at slow speed taking into account the level
of effort on the steering wheel needed to turn the wheels.
Contact a Fiat Dealership. Servo electrical motor fault.
Servo system fault.
Vibrations.Badly inflated tyres, badly balanced or
damaged.Check the tyre pressure; if the defect persists, have it
checked at a Fiat Dealership.
The engine overheats. The coolant
liquid temperature indicator is in the
alarm area and theSTOPwarning light
goes on.The cooling fan is out of order. Stop, turn off the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Coolant liquid leak.Check the coolant liquid tank: there should be liquid in it.
In not, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Coolant liquid boiling in the tank.
