WARNING
For Gasoline Engine Model
Make sure the drive belt tension is cor-
rect. If the belt is too loose, insufficient
battery charging, engine overheating, poor
power steering, poor air conditioning, or
excessive belt wear can result. When you
press the belt with your thumb midway
between the pulleys, there should be a de-
flection according to the following chart.
The belts should also be examined to en-
sure that they are not damaged.
If you need to replace or adjust the belt
have it done by your Fiat Dealership.
For Diesel Engine Model
The drive belts tension is adjusted auto-
matically.

STEERING
Steering wheel play “c”:
0 – 30 mm (0.0 – 1.2 in.)
Check the play of the steering wheel by
gently turning it from left to right and mea-
suring the distance that it moves before
you feel slight resistance. The play should
be between the specified values.
Check that the steering wheel turns eas-
ily and smoothly without rattling by turn-
ing it all the way to the right and to the left
while driving very slowly in an open area.
If the amount of free play is outside the
specification or you find anything else to
be wrong, an inspection must be per-
formed by your Fiat Dealership. PARKING BRAKE
Ratchet tooth specification “b”:
4th – 9th
Lever pull force (1):
200 N (20 kg, 44 lbs)
Check the parking brake for proper ad-
justment by counting the number of clicks
made by the ratchet teeth as you slowly
pull up on the parking brake lever to the
point of full engagement. The parking
brake lever should stop between the spec-
ified ratchet teeth and the rear wheels
should be securely locked. If the parking
brake is not properly adjusted or the
brakes drag after the lever has been fully
released, have the parking brake inspect-
ed and/ or adjusted by your Fiat Dealer-
ship.

IMPORTANT Replacing the original tires
with tires of a different size may result in
false speedometer or odometer readings.
Check with your Fiat Dealership before
purchasing replacement tires that differ in
size from the original tires.
IMPORTANT For 4-wheel drive (4WD)
models, replacing a tire with one of a dif-
ferent size, or using different brands
among the four tires can result in dam-
age to the drive train.
TIRE ROTATION
To avoid uneven wear of your tires and to
prolong their life, rotate the tires as illus-
trated. Tires should be rotated every
10,000 km (6,000 miles). After rotation,
adjust front and rear tire pressures to the
specification listed on your vehicle’s Tire
Information Label.
– Your Fiat is equipped with
tires which are all the same
type and size. This is important to en-
sure proper steering and handling of
the vehicle. Never mix tires of differ-
ent size or type on the four wheels of
your vehicle. The size and type of
tires used should be only those ap-
proved by Fiat as standard or op-
tional equipment for your vehicle.
– Replacing the wheels and tires
equipped on your vehicle with certain
combinations of aftermarket wheels
and tires can significantly change the
steering and handling characteristics
of your vehicle.
– Therefore, use only those wheel and
tire combinations approved by Fiat as
standard or optional equipment for
your vehicle.
