Do not fit snow chains
on a space-saver spare
wheel. If a front wheel
(drive wheel) is punctured and
you require snow chains to pro-
ceed, take a standard wheel from
the rear axle and fit the space-
saver spare wheel in its place.
Having fitted two standard
wheels on the front drive axle,
you can use snow chains, thus
solving the emergency situation. The jack should only be
used to change a wheel
on the car for which it
was designed. It should not be
put to other uses or employed to
raise other models of cars. Under
no circumstances should it be
used when carrying out repairs
under the car.
An incorrectly positioned jack
may cause the car to fall.
Do not use the jack for loads
over the value indicated on the
plate.
Fasten the wheel cap correctly
to prevent the wheel from com-
ing free in motion.
Never tamper with the inflation
valve.
Never place tools between the
rim and tyre.
Check the tyre and space-saver
spare wheel pressure regularly.
The tyre inflation pressure is
shown in the
TECHNICAL SPECIFI-
CATIONSchapter. Never fit a traditional
tyre on a space-saver
spare wheel rim. Have
the replace wheel repair and re-
fitted as soon as possible.
Never use two or more spare
wheels at the same time.
Do not lubricate the bolt
threads before fitting them back:
they could come loose.

IF AN INTERIOR
LIGHT BURNS OUT IF A FUSE BLOWS
A fuse is an element for protecting
the electrical system. A fuse will trip
(i.e. it will blow) in the event of a fail-
ure or improper interventions in the
electrical system.
If an electrical device is not working,
check whether the respective fuse is
blown. The conductor should be in-
tact. If it is not, replace the fuse with
another with the same amperage
(same colour) fig. 37.
A- Undamaged fuse.
B - Fuse with broken filament. Modifications or repairs
to the electrical system
carried out incorrectly
and without bearing the features
of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire. COURTESY LIGHT
To replace the 12V-5W bulb use a
screwdriver as a lever at the points in-
dicated by the arrows and remove the
complete pressure-fit light unit
fig. 35.
BOOT LIGHT
To replace the 12V-5W ceiling light
bulb, remove the clipped on lens with
a screwdriver as shown in fig. 36.

Before starting to tow,
turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP.
Do not remove the key. If the
key is removed, the steering lock
engages automatically which pre-
vents the wheels being turned.
While the car is being
towed with the engine
off, remember that the
brake pedal and steering will re-
quire more effort as you no
longer have the benefit of the
power brakes and power steer-
ing. Do not use flexible cables to
tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst tow-
ing, ensure that the coupling to
the vehicle does not damage the
surrounding components.
The car can be lifted
from the side providing
the hydraulic jack arm is
fitted with a special bracket in
the plate housing.
WITH AN ARM HOIST
Jack up the car by arranging the ends
of the arms in the areas shown in
fig. 45.
IF THE CAR NEEDS
TO BE TOWED
A tow hitch is provided with the car.
To fasten the tow hitch:
1)Take the tow eye from the spare
wheel in the boot.
When towing the car,
you must comply with
the specific traffic regula-
tions regarding the tow hitch and
how to tow on the road.

122CAR MAINTENANCE
Engine compartment
At the end of each winter season,
carefully clean the engine compart-
ment. Have this done at a garage. Leave the car in the open so that the
water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has
been parked in the sun or while the
bonnet is hot: it could take the shine
off the paint.
Outside plastic parts must be
cleaned following the usual car wash-
ing procedure.
Where possible avoid parking the
car under trees; the resinous sub-
stances that certain species of tree
shed dull the paintwork and increase
the possibility of rust forming.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings
must be washed off immediately and
with great care as their acid is partic-
ularly aggressive.Detergents pollute wa-
ter. The car must there-
fore be washed in an area
equipped for the collection and
purification of the liquids used
while washing.
IMPORTANTThe engine com-
partment should be washed while the
engine is cold and with the ignition key
at STOP. After washing, make sure
that the various protections (e.g. rub-
ber boots and various guards) have
not be removed or damaged. To better protect the paintwork,
polish with specific protective wax.
When the paintwork tends to lose
its shine because of the build-up of
smog, use polish wax which has a
slightly abrasive as well as protective
action.
Windows
Use specific window cleaners to
clean the windows. Use very clean
cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging its transparency.
IMPORTANT To prevent damage
to the electrical heater element, wipe
the inside of the heated rear window
gently in the same direction as the el-
ements.
