❒make sure the compressor switch E-
fig. 16is set to 0(off), start the en-
gine and fit plug D-fig. 15into the cig-
ar lighter outlet and then turn on the
compressor by setting switch E-fig. 16
to I(on). Inflate the tyre to the pres-
sure specified in paragraph “Cold tyre
inflation pressure” in section “Techni-
cal Specifications”. Check tyre pressure
on gauge F-fig. 16with compressor off
to obtain precise reading; ❒If after 5 minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 1.5 bar, disengage com-
pressor from valve and current outlet,
then move the car forth for approx. ten
metres in order to distribute the seal-
ing fluid inside the tyre evenly, then re-
peat the inflation operation;
❒If after this operation it is still impossi-
ble after 5 minutes to reach at least 1.8
bar, do not start driving since the tyre
is excessively damaged and the quick
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee suit-
able sealing, contact Fiat Dealership;
fig. 15F0C0515mfig. 16F0C0516m
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 pressure; pull
up the handbrake;
If the pressure falls below 1.8
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.
WARNING
❒If reaching the tyre pressure specified
in paragraph “Cold tyre inflation pres-
sure” in section “Technical Specifica-
tions”, start driving immediately;

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 location of fus-
es, 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.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.
WARNING
Due to high voltage, the bulb
of (Xenon) gas-discharge
headlights must only be replaced by
experts: danger of death! Contact Fi-
at Dealership.
WARNING
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.
