WARNING
Do not start the engine when towing the car.
WARNINGWhile the car is being towed with the
engine off, remember that the brake
pedal and steering will require more
effort as you no longer have the benefit
of the brake booster and the electrical
power steering. Do not use flexible cables
to tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst towing,
ensure that the coupling to the car does
not damage the surrounding components.
When towing the car, you must comply
with the specific traffic regulations
regarding the tow hitch and how to tow
on the road. TOW RING HOOKING
Proceed as follows:
❒take the tow ring (B) from its support;
❒tighten the ring on the rear or front threaded pin.
F0H0204m
F0H0205m
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
prevents the wheels being turned.

IMPORTANT - Battery
The charge in the battery should be checked at the
start of winter to limit the risk of electrolyte freezing.This check should be carried out more frequently if
the car is used mainly for short trips, or if it is fitted
with accessories that permanently absorb electricity
even with the ignition key removed, especially in the
case of after market accessories. If the car is used in
hot climates or particularly harsh conditions it is wise
to check the level of the battery fluid (electrolyte)
more frequently than specified in the “Service
schedule” in this section.

MAINTENANCE
Car maintenance should be entrusted to Fiat Dealership. For routine and minor maintenance
operations you wish to carry out yourself, always make sure you have the proper equipment,
genuine Fiat spare parts and the necessary fluids; do not however carry out these operations if you
have no experience.

In fact, since these devices continue absorbing energy
even when the ignition key is off, they gradually run
down the battery.The total intake of these systems (factory and after-
market) must be less than 0.6 mA x Ah (of the
battery) as shown in the following table:

Engine compartment
At the end of the winter the engine compartment
should be carefully washed, without directing the jet
against electronic control units. Contact a specialised
workshop to have this done.
IMPORTANT Washing should be carried out with the
engine cold and the ignition key at STOP. After
washing make sure that the various protections (e.g.:
rubber caps and various covers) have not been
damaged or removed.INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped under the
mats (due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause oxidisation of the sheet metal.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC AND
VELVET PARTS
Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust.
Velvet is cleaned better if the brush is moistened.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution
of water and neutral detergent.
CLEANING LEATHER SEATS
Remove dried on dirt with lightly moistened chamois
leather or cloth without pressing too hard.
Remove liquid or grease stains with a dry absorbent
cloth without rubbing. Then wipe with a soft cloth or
chamois leather with water and neutral soap.
If the stain persists, use specific products, carefully
following the instructions for use.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or alcohol-based
products.
WARNINGNever use flammable
products like oil ether or
rectified petrol for
cleaning car interiors.
Electrostatic discharges
generated by rubbing
during cleaning
operations could cause
fire.
