COMPACT SPARE TIRE
(if equipped)
1.Wear indicator
2.Indicator location mark
Your vehicle comes equipped with the
compact spare tire. The compact spare is
designed to save space in your storage area,
and its lighter weight makes it easier to in-
stall if a flat tire occurs. It is only intended
for temporary emergency use, until the
conventional tire can be repaired or re-
placed. The inflation pressure of the com-
pact spare tire should be checked at least
monthly. Use a quality pocket- type infla-
tion pressure gauge and set at 4.2 bar (60
psi). At the same time, check that the tire
is stored securely. If it is not, tighten it.
Note that two or more compact spare
tires should not be used on one vehicle si-
multaneously.
54G115
The compact spare tire and
wheel are intended for tem-
porary emergency use only. Continu-
ous use of this spare can result in tire
failure and loss of control. Always ob-
serve these precautions when using
this spare:
– Your vehicle will handle differently
with this temporary spare.
– Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph)
speed.
– Replace this spare with a standard
tire and wheel as soon as possible.
– Use of this spare will reduce ground
clearance.
o Recommended air pressure for this
spare is 4.2 bar (60 psi).
– Do not use tire chains on the com-
pact spare. If you must use tire
chains, rearrange the wheels so stan-
dard tires and wheels are fitted to the
front axle.
WARNING
– The compact spare tire has
a much shorter tread life
than the conventional tires on your
vehicle. Replace the tire as soon as
the tread wear indicator appears.
– When replacing the compact spare
tire, use a replacement tire with the
exact same size and construction.

PROVISIONS FOR THE PROCESSING OF A VEHICLE
AT THE END OF ITS LIFE-CYCLE
For years now Fiat has been developing its global commitment towards the safeguarding and protection of the Environment through
the continuous improvement of its production processes and the making of increasingly more “eco friendly” products. With a view
to guaranteeing the best possible service to clients in full observance of environmental standards and in response to the obligations
imposed by European Directive 2000/53/EC on end-of-life vehicles, Fiat offers its clients the possibility to hand in their vehicle* at
the end of its life span without additional costs.
The European Directive, in fact, provides for the take-back of the vehicle without the last holder or owner of the same incurring
expenses due to the fact that the market value of the vehicle is zero or negative. In particular, in almost all of the countries of the
European Union, up until 1st January 2007, take-back of the vehicle free of charge only applies to vehicles registered from 1 July 2002
on, while, from 2007 on, take-back will be carried out free of charge, independently of the year of registration, provided that the
vehicle still contains all its essential component parts (especially engine and body) and is free from additional waste materials.
Our contracted network of authorised treatment facilities has been carefully selected in order to provide a quality service to our
customers by de-polluting and recycling “End of Life Vehicles” to approved environmental standards. To find out the location of your
nearest authorised treatment facility, offering free of charge take-back, simply contact one of our dealers or refer to the Fiat web
site or call the toll free number 00800 3428 0000.
