KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL -> WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES for Your Fiat Tipo 4 Door Second Generation (2015-2026)

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES  
WARNING The warning light switches on in the instrument panel together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal  
when applicable. These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or  
alternative to the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always  
refer to the information in this section in the event of a failure indication.  
WARNING Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious failures. Serious faults are  
indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning "cycle" with a shorter  
duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the cause  
of the failure is eliminated.  
NOTE The warning lights and symbols described below are indicative and can change based on the version or market.  
Red warning lights  
Warning light  
What it means  
INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / PARKING BRAKE ON  
The warning light switches on when the ignition device is brought to MAR, but it should switch off after a few  
seconds.  
Low brake fluid level  
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly  
due to a leak in the circuit. Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has switched off. If the  
warning light stays on, contact a Fiat Dealership.

red  
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH  
The warning light on the display lights up when the engine has overheated.  
In normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off the engine and check that the coolant level in the  
reservoir is not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine to cool down, then slowly and carefully  
open the cap, top up with coolant and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir  
itself. Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light on the display switches on  
again, contact a Fiat Dealership.  
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g. in high-performance driving): slow down and, if  
the warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Stop for two or three minutes with the engine running and slightly  
accelerated to facilitate better coolant circulation, then turn the engine off. Check that the coolant level is correct  
as described above.  
red  
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine running and slightly accelerated for a few  
minutes before turning it off.

temporarily deactivated or faulty. The system will go back to normal operation when the operating conditions will  
allow it. If this is not the case, carry out the Reset procedure after restoring the normal operating conditions.  
If the malfunction warning persists, contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.  
Low tyre pressure  
The warning light switches on constantly to indicate that the pressure of one or more tyres is lower than the  
recommended value and/or that slow pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tyre duration and fuel  
consumption may not be guaranteed. It is advisable to restore the correct pressure value (see the "Wheels"  
paragraph in the "Technical Specifications" section).  
amber  
Once the normal operating conditions of the car are restored, carry out the "Reset" procedure.

CONTROL SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT FAILURE  
Message to have the  
warning light checked  
The failure of the control system warning light is  
indicated by a message on the instrument panel  
display.  
IMPORTANT  
38) If, when the ignition device is turned to MAR, the warning light  
does not switch on or stays on while driving, a failure may have  
occurred 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.

39) The failure of the  
warning light is signalled by the lighting up of the symbol  
on the instrument panel display (or, for versions where  
provided, by the flashing of the generic failure warning light). In this case, the warning light may not indicate any faults with the restraint  
systems. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.  
WARNING  
13) If, turning the ignition device to MAR, the warning light  
Dealership as soon as possible.  
14) The presence of water in the fuel system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If the  
does not turn on or if it turns on steadily or flashing while driving, contact a Fiat  
symbol is displayed contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to bleed the system. If the above indications come on immediately after  
refuelling, water has probably been poured into the tank: switch the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.  
15) If the  
symbol switches on while driving, stop the engine immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.  
16) Driving the vehicle with this symbol on may severely damage the transmission, with resulting breakage. The oil may also overheat: contact  
with hot engine or with exhaust components at high temperature could cause fires.  
17) Degraded engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after the warning light  
comes on, and never more than 500 km after it first  
comes on. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember that when this  
warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes it does not mean that you need to top  
up the engine oil.  
18) If the warning light flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.
