IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the
negative terminals of the two batteries:
sparks could ignite the flammable gas from
the battery. If the other battery is fitted in
another vehicle, prevent accidental con-
tacts between the metal parts of the two
vehicles.BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing, or coasting downhill) as this could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic ex-
haust system and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the power steering system
are not operating until the engine is start-
ed, a greater effort will therefore be re-
quired to press the brake pedal or turn
the steering wheel.IF A TYRE
IS PUNCTURED
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and spare wheel call for some pre-
cautions as listed below.
Alert other drivers that the
vehicle is stationary in com-
pliance with the regulations in force:
hazard warning lights, warning trian-
gle etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the vehicle, especially if
it is heavily laden. Passengers should
stay away from oncoming traffic
while the wheel is being changed on.
Pull the handbrake.

The spare wheel is specific to
your vehicle, do not use it on
other models, or use the spare wheel
of other models on your vehicle.
Wheel bolts are specific to your vehi-
cle: do not use them on other models
and do not use bolts of other models.
WARNING
Have the punctured wheel
repaired and refitted as soon
as possible. Do not grease the threads
of bolts before installing them: they
might slip out.
WARNING
The jack shall only be used
for changing wheels on the
vehicle with which it is provided or on
vehicles of the same model. It must
not be used for other purposes such
as for instance raising vehicles of oth-
er models. In no case should it be used
for repairs under the vehicle. Incor-
rect positioning of the jack may cause
the jacked vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack for higher capacities than
stated on its label.
WARNING
Fasten the wheel cap cor-
rectly to prevent the wheel
from coming free in motion. Never
tamper with the inflation valve. Nev-
er place tools between the rim and
tyre. Check and restore, if required,
the pressure of tyres and spare wheel
to the values given in section “Tech-
nical Specifications”.
WARNING
Please note:
❒the jack weight is 4,5 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired. If it breaks
it must be replaced with a new jack;
❒no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.

WHEELS AND TYRES
Check the pressure of each tyre, includ-
ing the spare, every two weeks and before
long journeys. The pressure should be
checked with the tyre rested and cold.
It is normal for pressure to rise when you
are driving. For the correct tyre inflation
pressure, see “Wheels” in section “Tech-
nical specifications”.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal tyre
wearfig. 13:
Anormal pressure: tread evenly worn.
Blow pressure: tread particularly worn
at the edges.
Chigh pressure: tread particularly worn
in the centre.
Tyres must be replaced when the tread
wears down to 1.6 mm. In any case, com-
ply with the laws in the country where the
vehicle is being driven.

IMPORTANT NOTES
❒As far as possible, avoid sharp brak-
ing and screech starts etc. Be careful
not to hit the kerb, potholes or oth-
er obstacles hard. Driving for long
stretches over bumpy roads can dam-
age the tyres;
❒periodically check that the tyres have
no cuts in the side wall, abnormal
swelling or irregular tyre wear. If any
of these occur, have the vehicle seen
to at a Fiat Dealership;
❒avoid overloading the vehicle when
travelling: this may cause serious dam-
age to the wheels and tyres;
❒if a tyre is punctured, stop immediately
and change it to avoid damage to the
tyre, the rim, suspensions and steer-
ing system;
❒tyres age even if they are not used
much. Cracks in the tread rubber are
a sign of ageing. In any case, if the
tyres have been on the vehicle for
over 6 years, they should be checked
by specialised personnel, to see if they
can still be used. Also remember to
check the spare wheel;
❒in the case of replacement, always fit
new tyres, avoiding those of dubious
origin;
❒if a tyre is changed, also change the in-
flation valve;
❒to allow even wear between the front
and rear tyres, it is advisable to change
them over every 10-15 thousand kilo-
metres, keeping them on the same
side of the vehicle so as to not reverse
the direction of rotation.
Remember that road holding
depends also on the correct
tyre inflating pressure.
