SOUND SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
For radio operation, consult the Supplement attached to
this Owner Handbook.
SOUND SYSTEM CAPABILITY
(for versions/markets where provided)
The system consists of:
❒sound system power cables
❒front speaker connection cables
❒aerial power cable
❒2 tweeters A on the front pillars (30 W max power
each), fig. 137;
❒2 mid-woofers B in the front doors (165 mm
diameter, 40 W max power each)
fig. 138;
❒radio aerial lead.
❒The sensor may detect a non-existent obstacle
(echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for example
when washing the vehicle, in case of rain, strong
wind, hail.
❒The signals sent by the sensors can also be altered
by the presence of ultrasonic systems (e.g.
pneumatic brake systems or pneumatic drills) near
the vehicle.
❒The performance of the parking assistance system
may also be affected by the position of the sensors.
For example by a change in the ride setting (caused
by the wear of the shock absorbers, suspension),
changing the tyres, overloading the vehicle and
carrying out specific tuning operations that require
the vehicle to be lowered;
❒Detection of obstacles in the upper part of the
vehicle (particularly in the case of vans or chassis
cabs) may not be guaranteed because the system
detects obstacles that could strike the lower part
of the vehicle.

IMPORTANT NOTES
❒Avoid braking suddenly, burning starts and violent
knocks against the curb, potholes or other obstacles
if possible. Driving for long stretches over bumpy
roads can damage the tyres;
❒check the tyres regularly for cuts on the sides,
swelling or irregular tread wear. Contact a Fiat
Dealership if required.
❒avoid overloading the car when travelling: this may
cause serious damage to the wheels and tyres;
❒if a tyre is punctured, stop the vehicle immediately
and change it to avoid damage to the tyre, the rim,
the suspensions and the 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 skilled personnel if they
have been fitted for longer than six years. Also
remember to check the space-saver wheel very
carefully;
❒In the case of replacement, always fit new tyres,
avoiding those with an unknown origin.
❒If a tyre is replaced, also change the inflation valve.
❒to allow an even wear between the front and rear
tyres, it is advisable to change them over every
10-15 thousand kilometres, keeping them on the
same side of the vehicle so as not to reverse the
direction of rotation.
WHEELS AND TYRES
Check the pressure of each tyre, including the space-
saver wheel, approximately every two weeks and before
long journeys: the pressure should be checked with the
tyre rested and cold. It is normal for the pressure to
increase when the vehicle is used; for the correct tyre
inflation pressure, see “Wheels” in the “Technical
specifications” section. Incorrect pressure causes
abnormal tyre wear fig. 233:
A normal pressure: tread evenly worn.
B low pressure: tread particularly worn at the edges.
C high pressure: tread particularly worn in the centre.
The tyres must be replaced when the tread is less than
1.6 mm thick. In all cases, follow the laws in force in the
country where you are driving.
