ated aerial (sound system and cellular
phone) A-fig. 78located in the rear
right-hand part of the vehicle;

GEAR USE
To engage the gears, press down
the clutch and put the gear lever into
one of the positions shown in the
diagram infig. 2(the diagram is also
on the gear lever knob).
IMPORTANT The car can be put
in reverse only when it has com-
pletely stopped moving. With engine
running, before engaging the reverse,
wait at least 2 seconds with clutch
pedal completely pressed down to
prevent damage and grating of gears.
Do not drive with your
hand resting on the gear
stick as the force exerted,
even if only slight, could lead to
premature wearing of the gear-
box internal components.

SAFE DRIVING
In designing the Fiat barchetta, Fiat
has made every effort to come up with
a car able to provide driver and pas-
senger with top-class levels of safety.
Nevertheless it is always the behaviour
of the person at the wheel that de-
termines road safety.
Below you will find some simple tips
to help you travel in safety under dif-
ferent conditions. You will no doubt
be familiar with many of them already
but it will be useful to read them all
carefully.
You must push the clutch
pedal fully down to change
gear properly. It is therefore essen-
tial that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure mats are lying
flat and do not get in the way.

ACCESSORY INSTALLATION
Genuine Fiat accessories have been designed with
the Fiat barchetta specifically in mind and have been se-
lected and tested on the car. They are easy to use, re-
liable and practical, qualities that lead to enhanced com-
fort and safety under all driving conditions.
If you wish to give your Fiat barchetta a sportier look,
Fiat has designed light alloy rims, leather panels, spoilers
and sporty bumpers that are fully in keeping with the
car’s line making it more personal and aggressive.
To ensure child safety, the child safety seats offered
by Lineaccessori Fiat meet the requirements of the Eu-
ropean standards currently in force.
You can find accessories from the Fiat line described
in a catalogue available from Fiat Branches, Dealers or
Authorised Workshops. Just ask one of Fiat’s staff to
give you all the details.
The following pages show diagrams and give instruc-
tions for correctly fitting a number of accessories. In-
stallation must always be entrusted to the experts. Fi-
at has specially trained its Dealership staff for work on
the Fiat barchetta.ELECTRONIC CAR ALARM ........................................... 150

TOW HITCH INSTALLATION
TOW HITCH INSTALLATION
The device for towing a trailer (tow
hitch) fig. 3must be fixed to the body
by an expert in accordance with the
following instructions.The following must be used for the
mechanical connection:
– “CUNA 501” 1
stclass ball coupling
(CUNA NC 138-40 table);– “CUNA 501” 1
stclass socket cou-
pling (CUNA NC 438-40 table).
For the electric connection a 7-pole,
12-Volt coupling must be used (CU-
NA UNI 9128).
The electric coupling must be fixed
on a special mount to be attached to
the ball coupling.
The electrical functions for the cou-
pling must be connected as illustrat-
ed infig. 5.
In addition to the electrical connec-
tions (shown in the diagram that fol-
lows) only the lead for powering an
electrical brake and the lead to pow-
er a light inside the trailer not ex-
ceeding 15W may be connected to the
car's electrical system.
The electrical brake must be pow-
ered directly from the battery by
means of a lead with a cross-section
no less than 2.5 mm
2.

ASSEMBLY DIAGRAM
The tow hitch structure fig. 4must
be fixed using 6 M10 bolts at the
points indicated Ø.
All the anchorage points ➀must
have suitable internal 4 mm-thick steel
reinforcements and diam. 20x4.5 mmthick spacers. Dimensions as shown in
the picture and turned up edges.
The underbody plate must be wider
than the plate in the boot. Further-
more, the edge of the plate must be
turned up to avoid sharp corners com-
ing into contact with the body.

The tow hitch must be anchored to
the body by trimming the grille in the
centre part of the rear bumper.
