IT SHOULD BE NOTICED THAT:
The sealing fluid of the quick tyre repair
kit is effective with external temperatures
between –20 °C and +50 °C.
The sealing fluid has limited life.
The compressor shall not be
operated for more than 20
minutes. Risk of overheating!. Tyres
repaired with the quick tyre repair kit
shall be used temporarily only.
WARNING
In the event of a puncture
caused by foreign bodies, it is
possible to repair tyres show-
ing damages on the track or
shoulder up to max 4 mm diameter.
Holes and damages on the
tyre side walls cannot be re-
paired. Do not use the quick tyre re-
pair kit if damaging is due to running
with flat tyre.
WARNING
Repairs are not possible in
case of damages on the
wheel rim (bad groove distortion
causing air loss). Do not remove for-
eign bodies (screws or nails) from the
tyre.
WARNINGIf the compressor stops due to excessive
overheating, wait a few minutes to allow
for compressor cooling, press the RESET
button set aside the compressor, then re-
activate the compressor.

the mouth, drink a lot of water and
call the doctor immediately. Keep
away from children. This product must
not be used by asthmatics. Do not in-
hale vapours. Call the doctor imme-
diately in case of allergic reactions.
Keep the cylinder in the space provid-
ed for the purpose and far from heat.
The sealing fluid has limited life.

❒make sure the compressor switch D-
fig. 13is set to 0 (off), start the en-
gine and fit plug E-fig. 14into the
nearest current outlet and then turn
on the compressor by setting switch
D-fig. 13to I(on). Inflate tyre at 4 bar
pressure. Check tyre pressure on gauge F-fig.
13with compressor off to obtain pre-
cise reading;
❒if after 5 minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 3 bar, disengage com-
pressor from valve and current outlet,
then move the vehicle forth for ap-
prox. ten metres in order to distrib-
ute the sealing fluid inside the tyre
evenly, then repeat the inflation op-
eration;
❒if after this operation it is still impos-
sible after 10 minutes to reach at least
3 bar, do not start driving since the
tyre is excessively damaged and the
quick tyre repair kit cannot guarantee
suitable sealing, contact Fiat Dealer-
ship;
❒re-start immediately if the tyre has
been inflated to 4 bar pressure;

fig. 14F0N0182m
Apply the sticker in a visible
position for the driver to in-
dicate that the tyre has been treat-
ed with the quick tyre repair kit. Dri-
ve carefully especially when corner-
ing. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Avoid
heavy braking and accelerating.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes
stop and check again the tyre pres-
sure; pull up the handbrake;
If the pressure falls below 3
bars, do not drive any fur-
ther: the quick tyre repair kit Fix & Go
automatic cannot guarantee proper
hold because the tyre is too much
damaged. Contact Fiat Dealership.

❒if at laest 3 bar pressure is read, re-
store proper pressure specified in
paragraph” Tyre pressure” in section
“Technical Specifications” (with engine
running and handbrake on) and
restart;
❒drive with the utmost care to the
nearest Fiat Dealership.
FOR CHECKING AND
RESTORING PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor can be also used just for
restoring pressure. Disconnect the quick
connection Cand connect it directly to
the tyre valve fig. 15; in this way the cylin-
der is not connected to compressor and
the sealing fluid will not flow into the tyre.
NOTE If the tyre shall be deflated, con-
nect quick connection Cto the tyre valve
and press the yellow button set in the mid-
dle of the compressor switch.CYLINDER REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
To replace the cylinder proceed as fol-
lows:
❒disconnect connection A-fig. 17;
❒turn counter-clockwise the cylinder
to replace and raise it;
❒fit the new cylinder and turn it clock-
wise;
❒fit connection Aand connect tube B
into its seat.
It is of vital importance to
communicate that the tyre
has been repaired using the quick tyre
repair kit. Hand the instruction
brochure to the personnel charged
with treating the tyre repaired with
the kit.
WARNING

WHEN NEEDING TO
CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒When a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before changing a bulb. For the loca-
tion of fuses, refer to the paragraph “If
a fuse blows” in this section;
❒Before changing a bulb check the con-
tacts for oxidation;
❒Burnt bulbs must be replaced by oth-
ers of the same type and power;
❒Always check the height of the head-
light beam after changing a bulb.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
may be lightly misted over: this is not a
fault but a natural fact due to low tem-
perature and the level of air humidity. It
will disappear as soon the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside
the headlights means water infiltration,
therefore contact Fiat Dealership.
TYPES OF BULBS
Various types of bulbs are fitted to your
vehicle:
AGlass bulbs: clipped into position. Pull
to remove.BBayonet type bulbs: to remove this
type of bulb from its holder, press the
bulb and turn it counter-clockwise.
CTubular bulbs: release them from
their contacts to remove.
D-EHalogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place. Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent bulb
is touched with the fingers, its
lighting intensity is reduced and life of
the bulb may be compromised. If
touched accidentally, rub the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and al-
low to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (elec-
tronic control units) carried out in-
correctly and without bearing the fea-
tures of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which, if broken,
may cause small fragments of glass to
be projected outwards.
