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.

Important notes:
❒the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired. If it breaks
it must be replaced with a new jack;
❒no tool other than the cranking device
has to be fitted on the jack.
To replace a tyre proceed as follows:
❒stop the vehicle in a position so that it
is not a danger for on-coming traffic in
a location where you can replace the
wheel safely. The ground must be flat
and compact.
❒Turn the engine off and pull up the
handbrake.
❒Engage first gear or reverse.
❒open the rear swing doors the luggage

❒Fully expand the jack and lift the vehi-
cle until the wheel is a few centimetres
above ground level. When turning the
jack handle, make sure that it rotates
freely without risking to injure your
hand by rubbing it against the ground.
Even the moving components of the
jack (screws and joints) can cause in-
juries; do not touch them. If you be-
come fouled with lubricating grease,
clean yourself thoroughly.❒Unscrew the fastening bolts and remove
the wheel.
❒Make sure the contact surfaces be-
tween the spare wheel and hub are
clean so that the fastening bolts will not
come loose.

fig. 13F0T0129mfig. 14F0T0130m
Give the instruction brochure
to the personnel who will be
in charge of repairing the tyre using
the kit.
WARNING
The kit cannot be used to re-
pair damage to the tyre side-
wall. Do not use the fast repair kit if
the tyre is damaged as the vehicle has
run a flat tyre.
WARNING
If the wheel rim is damaged
(the channel is so deformed
as to cause an air leakage) it cannot
be repaired. Do not remove the for-
eign body (screw or nail) from the tyre.
WARNINGIn the event of a puncture
caused by foreign bodies, it is
possible to repair tyres show-
ing damages on the track or
shoulder up to max 4 mm diameter.

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.
