IF A TYRE
IS PUNCTURED
The vehicle is supplied with a “Fix&Go fast
tyre repair kit” (see instructions in next
section). As an alternative to the Fix&Go
kit, the vehicle may be equipped with a
regular size spare wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of the jack
and spare wheel call for some precautions
as listed below.
The spare wheel (for ver-
sions/markets, where provid-
ed) is specific for your vehicle. There-
fore, it must not be used on vehicles
of a different model. Do not use spare
wheels of different models on your ve-
hicle. The spare wheel must only be
used in an emergency. Use it as short-
ly as possible.
WARNING
Indicate that the vehicle is
stationary according to the
laws in force: emergency lights, re-
fracting warning triangle, etc. Pas-
sengers should leave the vehicle, par-
ticularly if it is very loaded, and wait
for the wheel to be changed away
from on-coming traffic. In case of
steep slopes or rough slopes, place
wedges or other materials suitable to
stop the vehicle under the wheels. Re-
pair and refit the standard wheel as
soon as possible. Do not apply grease
to the bolt threading before assem-
bly: the bolts could come loose un-
expectedly.
WARNING
Use the jack only to replace
wheels on the vehicle with
which it is supplied or on other vehi-
cles of the same model. Never use the
jack for other purposes, such as lift-
ing other vehicle models. Never use the
jack to carry out repairs under the ve-
hicle. Incorrect positioning of the jack
may cause the lifted vehicle to fall. Do
not use the jack for loads higher than
those shown on the label.
WARNING
Incorrect wheel cap assem-
bly may cause it to come off
when the vehicle is travelling. Never
tamper with the inflation valve. Nev-
er introduce tools of any kind be-
tween rim and tyre. Regularly check
the pressure of the tyres and small
spare wheel referring to the values
shown in the “Technical Specifica-
tions” section.

compressor is in position 0(off), start
the engine, plug into the socket D-fig.

ing switch E-fig. 17to position I(on).
Inflate the tyre to the pressure speci-
fied in the “Inflation pressure” para-
graph in the “Technical Specifications”
section. For a more accurate reading,
check the pressure on gauge F-fig. 17
with the compressor off:
❒if after 5 minutes it is still not possible
to reach at least 1.5 bar, disengage the
compressor from the valve and current
outlet, then move the vehicle forth for
approx. ten metres in order to distrib-
ute the sealing fluid inside the tyre even-
ly. Then, repeat the inflation operation;
❒if after this operation it is still not pos-
sible to reach at least 1.8 bar after 5
minutes, do not start driving since the
tyre is excessively damaged and the fast
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee suit-
able sealing. Contact the Fiat Dealer-
ship;
❒if the tyre is inflated at the pressure val-
ue specified in paragraph “Cold inflation
pressures”, “Technical Specifications”
section, start driving immediately;
❒After driving for about 10 minutes stop
and check the tyre pressure again; pull
up the handbrake.

Affix the adhesive label in an
easy-to-see position for the
driver as a reminder that the tyre has
been treated with the fast repair kit.
Drive carefully, particularly on bends.
Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do not ac-
celerate and brake suddenly.

WHEELS AND TYRES
Check the pressure of each tyre, includ-
ing the spare wheel, approximately once
every two weeks and before starting a
long journey: this check must be per-
formed with the tyre rested and cold.
It is normal for pressure to increase when
the vehicle is used. For the correct tyre
inflation pressure, see “Wheels” in “Tech-
nical specifications” section.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal tyre
wearfig. 9:
Anormal pressure: evenly worn tread;
Blow pressure: tread particularly worn
on the edges;
Cexcessive pressure: tread particularly
worn in the middle.
The tyres must be replaced when the
tread is less than 1.6 mm thick. In all cas-
es, follow the laws in force in the coun-
try where you are driving.IMPORTANT NOTES
❒Avoid braking suddenly, burning starts
and violent knocks against the curb,
potholes or other obstacles if possible.
Long distances on rough roads may
damage the tyres;
❒check the tyres regularly for cuts on the
sides, swelling or irregular tread wear.
Go to a Fiat Dealership if required.
❒Do not overload your vehicle: this may
cause serious damage to wheels and
tyres;
❒if a tyre is punctured, stop the vehicle
immediately and charge it to avoid dam-
age to the tyre, the rim, suspensions
and steering system;❒a tyre will age even if it is not used
much. Cracks in the tread and on the
sidewalls are a sign of ageing. Have the
tyres checked by specialised personnel
if they have been fitted for longer than
6 years. Remember to check the spare
wheel very carefully.
❒In case of replacement, always fit new
tyres, avoiding those with an unknown
origin.
❒If a tyre is replaced, also change the in-
flation valve.
❒To allow even wear between the front
and rear tyres, it is advisable to change
them every 10-15 thousand kilometres,
keeping them on the same side of the
vehicle so as not to reverse the direc-
tion of rotation.

RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber
hoses are concerned, carefully follow the
instructions provided in the “Scheduled
servicing plan” in this section.
Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged
lack of fluid in the system may cause hard-
ening and cracking of the hoses, with pos-
sible leaks. Careful inspections are there-
fore necessary.Remember that road holding
also depends on the correct
tyre inflation pressure.
WARNING
If the pressure is too low the
tyre overheats and this can
cause serious damage.
WARNING
Do not cross switch the
tyres, moving them from the
right of the vehicle to the left and
vice versa.
WARNING
Never submit alloy rims to
repainting treatments re-
quiring the use of temperatures ex-
ceeding 150°C. The mechanical prop-
erties of the wheels could be im-
paired.
