E-fig. 16fis set to 0(off), start the en-
gine and fit plug D-fig. 16einto the
nearest current outlet and then turn
on the compressor by setting switch
E-fig. 16ftoI(on). Inflate the tyre to
the pressure specified in paragraph
“Inflation pressure” in section “Tech-
nical Specifications”. Check tyre pres-
sure on gauge Fwith compressor off
to obtain precise reading;
– if after 5 minutes it is still impossi-
ble to reach at least 1.5 bar, disengage
compressor from valve and current
outlet, then move the vehicle forth for
approx. ten metres in order to dis-
tribute the sealing fluid inside the tyre
evenly, then repeat the inflation oper-
ation;– If after this operation it is still im-
possible 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 guar-
antee suitable sealing, contact Fiat
Dealership;
– if reaching the tyre pressure spec-
ified in paragraph “Inflation pressure”
in section “Technical Specifications”,
start driving immediately;Apply the sticker in a vis-
ible position for the driver
to indicate that the tyre
has been treated with the quick
tyre repair kit. Drive carefully es-
pecially when cornering. Do not
exceed 80 km/h. Avoid heavy

If the pressure falls be-
low 1.8 bars, do not dri-
ve any further: the quick
tyre repair kit Fix & Go auto-
matic cannot guarantee proper
hold because the tyre is too
much damaged. Contact Fiat
Dealership.
– if at least 1.8 bar pressure is read,
restore proper pressure (with engine
running and handbrake on) and
restart;
– drive with the utmost care to the
nearest Fiat Dealership.
129IN AN EMERGENCY
– after driving for about 10 minutes
stop and check again the tyre pres-
sure; pull up the handbrake;It is of vital importance
to communicate that the
tyre has been repaired us-
ing the quick tyre repair kit. Hand
the instruction brochure to the
personnel charged with treating
the tyre repaired with the kit.
FOR CHECKING AND
RESTORING PRESSURE
ONLY
The compressor can be also used
just for restoring pressure. Disconnect
the quick connection and connect it
directly to the tyre valve; in this way
the cylinder is not connected to com-
pressor and the sealing fluid will not
flow into the tyre. CYLINDER REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
To replace the cylinder proceed as
follows fig. 16h:
– disconnect connectionA; turn
counter-clockwise the cylinder to re-
place and raise it; fit the new cylinder
and turn it clockwise; connect con-
nection Ato the cylinder and fit the
transparent tube Binto the proper
space.

130IN AN EMERGENCY
IF A BULB BURNS OUT
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.Only touch the metal
part when handling halo-
gen bulbs. If the transpar-
ent bulb is touched it reduces the
intensity of the light emitted and
can also reduce the life of the
bulb. If you touch the bulb acci-
dentally, rub it with a cloth moist-
ened with alcohol and leave it to
dry.
You should have the
bulbs replaced at a Fiat
Dealership. Always check
the height of the headlight beam
after changing a bulb.
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas which, if
broken, may cause small
fragments of glass to be project-
ed outwards.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
– When a light is not working, check
that it has not fused before changing
the bulb.
– For the location of the fuses, re-
fer to “If a fuse blows” in this chap-
ter.
– Before replacing a bulb that does
not work, check that the contacts are
not oxidised.
– Burnt-out bulbs must be replaced
with ones of the same type.
– Always check the height of the
headlight beam after changing a bulb.
IMPORTANTThe headlight inner
surface may be lightly misted over: this
is not a fault but a natural fact due to
low temperature and the level of air
humidity. It will disappear as soon the
headlights are turned on. The pres-
ence of drops inside the headlights
means water infiltration, therefore
contact Fiat Dealership.
