❒tighten the ring on the rear fig. 48 or
front threaded pin fig. 49.
fig. 48F0H0204mfig. 49F0H0205m
Before towing, turn the key
to MAR and then to STOP
without extracting it. The steering
column will automatically lock when
the key is removed and the wheels
cannot be steered.
WARNING
The power brakes and pow-
er steering will not work while
the car is being towed. More effort on
the brake pedal and steering wheel will
therefore be required. Do not use flex-
ible cables when towing and avoid
jerky movements. Make sure not to
damage parts in contact with the car
while towing. Respect the specific rules
of the Highway Code when towing the
car specifically in relation to the tow-
ing device and the behaviour to main-
tain on the road.
WARNING
Do not start the engine while
towing the car.

car parked on level ground.
The oil level shall be included between the
MINand MAXmarks on the dipstick .
The range between the MINand
MAXlevels corresponds to approxi-
mately 1 litre of oil.

IMPORTANT A battery which is kept at
a charge of less than 50% for any length of
time will be damaged by sulphation lead-
ing to a reduction in cranking power.
The battery will also be more at risk of
freezing (already at –10 °C).
Refer to the paragraph “Car inactivity” in
“Starting and driving” if the car is left
parked for a long time.
If after buying the car, you want to install
electric accessories which require per-
manent electric supply (alarm, etc.) con-
tact Fiat Dealership whose qualified per-
sonnel, in addition to suggesting the most
suitable devices from Lineaccessori Fiat,
will evaluate the overall electric absorp-
tion, checking whether the car’s electric
system is capable of withstanding the load
required, or whether it should be inte-
grated with a more powerful battery.
Since these devices continue absorbing en-
ergy even when the ignition key is off, they
gradually run down the battery. USEFUL ADVICE FOR
LENGTHENING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and length-
en its life, observe the following indica-
tions:
❒when the car is parked, make sure that
the doors, bonnet and tailgate are
closed properly to make sure that the
lights inside the passenger compart-
ment go out;
❒switch off all lights inside the vehicle:
the car is however equipped with a sys-
tem which switches all internal lights off
automatically;
❒do not keep devices (e.g. sound sys-
tem, hazard lights, etc.) on for a long
time with the engine off;
❒before performing any operation on the
electrical system, disconnect the bat-
tery negative cable;
❒battery terminals shall always be per-
fectly tightened.Batteries contain very dan-
gerous substances for the en-
vironment. You are recom-
mended to go to a Fiat Deal-
ership to have the battery replaced
where the old battery will be disposed
of respecting both the environment and
the laws in force.
If the vehicle needs to be off
the road for a long period
under conditions of intense cold, re-
move the battery and take it to a
heated place, otherwise it may freeze.
WARNING
When performing any oper-
ation on the battery or near
it, always protect your eyes with the
special goggles.
