2008 FIAT ULYSSE jacking

IN AN EMERGENCY
155
An incorrectly posi-
tioned jack may cause the
vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack to lift loads exceeding
that indicated on the label at-
tached to the jack itself.Do not lubricate the bolt
threads before fitting
them back: they could
come loose.
Never start the engine when the
vehicle is jacked up.
If you are towing a trailer, re-
move the trailer before jacking
up the vehicle.Never tamper with the
inflation valve. Never
place tools between the
rim and the tyre.
Check the tyre and space-saver
spare wheel pressure regularly.
The tyre inflation pressure is
shown in the “Technical specifi-
cations” chapter.
The jack should only be
used to change a wheel
on the vehicle for which it
was designed. It should not be put
to other uses or employed to
raise other models. Under no cir-
cumstances should it be used
when carrying out repairs under
the vehicle.
Check the inflation pres-
sure of the tyres and the
spare wheel regularly. If
you change the type of wheels (al-
loy rims instead of steel rims) you
will have to change the entire set
of fastening bolts with another
set of suitably sized bolts.
You should keep the bolts in
case you decide to use the origi-
nal type of wheel later on.Signal the presence of
the stopped car according
to the laws in force: haz-
ard lights, reflecting triangle, etc.
Any passengers on board should
leave the car, especially if it is
heavily laden. Passengers should
stay away from oncoming traffic
while the wheel is being changed.
If the wheel is being changed on
a steep or badly surfaced road,
place wedges or other suitable
material under the wheels to
stop the car.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Observe the instructions on this and
the following pages to use the jack and
space-saver spare wheel correctly.
