FIAT Punto Classic User Manual

Dear Customer,

Thank you for selecting Fiat and congratulations on your choice of a Fiat Punto.
We have written this handbook to help you get to know all your new Fiat Punto features and use it in the best possible

way.
You should read it right through before taking the road for the first time.

You will find information, tips and important warnings regarding the driving of your car to help you derive the

maximum from your Fiat Punto technological features.

You are recommended to read carefully the warnings and indications, marked with the respective symbols, at the end

of the page:

personal safety;

the car’s wellbeing;

environmental protection.

The enclosed Warranty Booklet lists the services that Fiat offers to its Customers:

❒

the Warranty Certificate with terms and conditions for maintaining its validity

❒

the range of additional services available to Fiat Customers

Bestregards and good motoring!

This Owner Handbook describes all Fiat Punto versions. As a consequence, you should consider only the

information which is related to the engine and bodywork version of the car you purchased.

RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

A system for continuously monitoring emission system components to ensure greater environmental
protection is fitted in your car.

MUST BE READ!

ENGINE STARTING

Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress

the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as
the engine has started.

Diesel engines: turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the

Y

and mwarning lights to go off; turn

the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.

PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL

While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the car over grass, dry leaves,
pine needles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.



REFUELLING

Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95.

Diesel engines: only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590. Using oth-

er products or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and cause the forfeiture of the warranty
cover for caused damages as a consequence.

K

THE OWNER HANDBOOK CONTAINS…

…information, tips and important warnings regarding the safe, correct driving of your car, and its mainte­nance. Pay particular attention to the symbols

"

(personal safety) # (environmental protection) ! (the

car’s wellbeing). Should the reconfigurable multifunction display show the message “See Handbook”, refer
to section “Warning lights and messages” in this Handbook.

SCHEDULED SERVICING

Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring it stays in tip-top condition and safeguards its sa­fety features, its environmental friendliness and low running costs for a long time to come.

CODE card

Keep the code card in a safe place, not in the car. You should always keep the electronic code written
on the CODE card with you in case you need to carry out an emergency start-up procedure.

ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES

If, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical accessories (that will gradually drain the battery), visit
a Fiat Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the car’s electric
system can support the required load.

SYMBOLS

Special coloured labels have been attached near or actually on some of
the components of your Fiat Punto. These labels bear symbols that
remind you of the precautions to be taken as regards that particular
component.

The plate summarising the symbols used can be found under the bonnet.

THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM

To further protect you car from theft, it has been fitted with an engine
immobilising system. This system is automatically activated when the
ignition key is removed.

An electronic device, in fact, is fitted in each ignition key grip. The device
transmits a radio-frequency signal when the engine is started through a
special aerial built into the ignition switch. The modulate signal, which
changes each time the engine is started, is the password by means of
which the control unit recognises the key and enables to start the engine.

OPERATION

Each time the car is started turning the ignition key to MAR, the Fiat
CODE system control unit sends a recognition code to the engine
control unit to deactivate the inhibitor.

The code is sent only if the Fiat CODE system control unit has
recognised the code transmitted from the key.

Each time the ignition key is turned to the STOP position, the Fiat CODE
system deactivates the functions of the engine electronic control unit.

At starting, if the code has not been recognised
correctly, the warning light Ywill come on.

In this case, the key should be moved to the STOP
position and then back to MAR; if the lock continues,
possibly try again with the other key provided with the
car. If it is still not possible to start the car, follow the
instructions given in chapter “In an emergency” and
then contact a Fiat Dealership.

IMPORTANT Every key has its own code, which must
be memorised by the system control unit. To
memorise new keys, up to a maximum of eight, apply
to Fiat Dealership.

to STOP and then to MAR again: if no failure is
detected warning light Ywill not come on.

❒ If the warning light

Y

stays on, repeat the
procedure described previously leaving the key at
STOP for over 30 seconds. Should the
inconvenience persists, contact a Fiat Dealership.

❒ If the warning light

Y

stays on this means that the
code has not been recognised. In this case, the key
should be moved to the STOP position and then

STEERING COLUMN LOCK

Engaging

When the key is to STOP or PARK remove the key and turn the steering
wheel until it locks.

Disengaging

Rock the steering wheel slightly as you turn the ignition key to MAR.

F0I0035m

Never remove the ignition key while the car is moving. The steering wheel would
automatically lock as soon as you try to turn it. This also applies when the car is
being towed.

WARNING

WARNING

It is absolutely forbidden to carry out whatever after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance and safety, cause the lapse of
warranty and also result in non-compliance of the car with homologation
requirements.

18

INSTRUMENTS

Instrument background and type can change according to versions.

SPEEDOMETER (SPEED INDICATOR)

It indicates the car speed.

REV. COUNTER

The rev. counter shows engine rpm. The needle pointed to the danger
area (red on certain versions) indicates excessive high engine speed. Do
not drive for long periods with the needle in this area.

IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system gradually shuts off
the flow of fuel when the engine is “over-revving” resulting in a gradual
loss of engine power.

When the engine is idling, the rev counter may indicate a gradual or
sudden highering of the speed.

This is normal as it takes place during normal operation, for example
when activating the climate control system or the fan. In particular a slow
change in the speed preserves the battery charge.

FUEL LEVEL GAUGE

The needle indicates the amount of fuel left in the tank.The reserve
warning light (A) turns on (on certain versions together with the message
shown on the reconfigurable multifunction display) to indicate that 5 to 7
litres of fuel are left in the tank.

E - tank empty.
F - tank full (see contents of “At the filling station” paragraph in this

chapter).
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty: the gaps in fuel delivery

could damage the catalyst.

IMPORTANT If the needle reaches the (E) with warning light (A) flashing
this means that there is a failure. Contact a Fiat Dealership.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE

This shows the temperature of the engine coolant fluid and begins
working when the fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50°C.

Under normal conditions, the needle should hover around the middle of
the scale according to the working conditions.

C - low engine coolant temperature.

H - excessive engine coolant temperature.

The turning on of the warning light (B) (on certain versions together with
the message shown on the reconfigurable multifunction display) indicates
that the coolant fluid temperature is too high; in this case, stop the
engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.

temperature on driver’s side (knob L) or passenger’s
side (knob F). The temperatures set are shown on
the display.

Turning knobs clockwise or counter-clockwise until
they reach the extreme selections HI or LO, the
maximum heating or cooling functions are respectively
engaged.

HI function (maximum heating power)

This is turned on setting on the display a temperature
above 32°C and can be activated independently from
the driver’s or passenger’s side or both; this setting
brings the system to the “monozone” mode, the
display will show HI.

This function can be engaged when requiring to heat
the passenger compartment as quickly as possible. All
manual settings are however possible with this
function on.

RAIN SENSOR (where provided)

The rain sensor is behind the driving mirror in contact with the
windscreen and has the purpose of automatically adjust, during the
intermittent operation, the frequency of the windscreen wiper strokes as
to the rain intensity.

The sensor has a range of adjustment that gradually varies between wiper
stationary (no wiping) when the windscreen is dry, to wiper at first
continuous speed (continuous slow) with heavy rain.

Activation

Move the right-hand stalk downwards by one position.

The activation of the rain sensor is signalled by a control acquisition
“stroke”.

IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the sensor area.

Turning the knurled ring (F) it is possible to increase the sensitivity of the
rain sensor, obtaining a quicker change from stationary (no wiping) when
the windscreen is dry, to first continuous speed (continuous, slow).

The increase of the sensitivity of the rain sensor is signalled by a control
and acquisition “cycle”.

Operating the windscreen washer with the rain sensor activated the
normal washing cycle is performed at the end of which the rain sensor
resumes its normal automatic function.

The rain sensor is able to recognize and automatically
adjust itself in the presence of the following particular
conditions:

❒ impurities on the controlled surface (salt, dirt, etc.);

❒ straks of water caused by worn wiper blades;

❒ difference between day and night.

Deactivation

Turn the ignition key to STOP.

At the following starting operation (key at MAR), the
sensor will not be reactivated even is the stalk is on
(B). In this event, to activate the rain sensor, you have
to move the stalk to (A) or (C) and then again to (B).

When the rain sensor is again activated in this way, at
least one windscreen wiper stroke occurs, even if the
windscreen is dry.

In the event of ice on the windscreen, make sure to have disconnected the device.

Do not activate the rain sensor when washing the car in an automatic washing station.

WARNING

Make sure the device is off when cleaning the windscreen.

REAR WINDOW WASH/WIPE FUNCTION

This device can only work when the ignition key is at MAR.

To switch the rear window wiper on, turn the knurled ring from O to

'

. To wash the window push the stalk towards the dashboard.

On certain versions the rear window and windscreen wiping strokes are
synchronised.

“Smart washing” function

On certain versions, pulling the stalk towards the dashboard, with just
one movement it is possible to operate the washer jet and the wiper at
the same time; indeed, the latter comes into action automatically if the
stalk is pulled for more than half a second.

The wiper stops working three strokes after releasing the stalk. On
certain versions a further “cleaning stroke”, after a few seconds,
completes the wiping operation.

HEADLIGHT WASHERS

They are activated automatically when the windscreen washer is
operated with dipped beam headlights or main beam headlights on.

IMPORTANT Regularly check that the spray jets are intact and clean.

CRUISE CONTROL (where provided)

It is a device able to support the driver, with electronic control, which
allows driving at speed over 30 km/h on long and straight dry roads (e.g.:
motorways), at a desired speed, without pressing the accelerator pedal.
Therefore it is not suggested to use this device on extra-urban roads
with traffic. Do not use it in town.

DEVICE ENGAGEMENT

Turn knurled ring (A) to ON.

The device may only be engaged in the 4th or 5th or 6th gear. Travelling
downhill with the device engaged, the car speed may increase more than
the memorised one.

When the device is activated, the warning light

Ü

on the instrument
cluster turns on together with the message on the reconfigurable
multifunction display (where provided) (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).

TO MEMORISE SPEED

Proceed as follows:

❒ turn the knurled ring (A) to ON and press the

accelerator pedal to the required speed;

❒ turn the knurled ring (B) to (+) for at least three

seconds, then release it. The car speed is
memorised and it is therefore possible to release
the accelerator pedal.

In the case of need (when overtaking for instance)
acceleration is possible simply pressing the accelerator
pedal; later, releasing the accelerator pedal, the car
will return to the speed memorised previously.

TO RESET THE MEMORISED SPEED

If the device has been disengaged for example pressing
the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised speed can
be reset as follows:

❒ accelerate gradually until reaching a speed

approaching the one memorised;

❒ engage the gear selected at the time of speed

memorising (4th or 5th or 6th gear);

❒ press the RES button (C).

TO INCREASE THE MEMORISED SPEED

The speed memorised can be increased in two ways:

❒ pressing the accelerator and then memorising the

new speed reached;

or

❒ momentaneously turning the ring (B) to (+).

Each pulse of the ring will correspond to a slight
increase in speed (about 1 km/h), while pressing
continuously will correspond to a continuous speed
increase.
