IF THE BATTERY IS FLAT
IMPORTANT The battery recharging pro-
cedure is provided as an example only.
You are recommended to go to a Fiat
Dealership to have this operation per-
formed.
We recommend recharging the battery
slowly for approximately 24 hours at low
amperage. A long charge could damage the
battery. Proceed as follows to charge the
battery:
❒disconnect battery negative terminal;
❒connect the charger cables to the bat-
tery terminals, observing the poles;
❒turn on the charger;
❒when you have finished, turn the
charger off before disconnecting the
battery;
❒reconnect battery negative terminal.
IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with
an alarm system, disarm the alarm system
by means of the remote control (see
“Alarm” paragraph in “Dashboard and
controls”).
LIFTING THE CAR
If the car is to be lifted, go to a Fiat Deal-
ership which is equipped with the arm
hoist or workshop lift.
Jack up the car only by positioning the jack
arms or the shop jack in the points shown
in the figure fig. 43.Battery fluid is poisonous
and corrosive: avoid contact
with your skin and eyes. The battery
recharging operation must be per-
formed in a ventilated placed away
from naked flames o possible sources
of sparks to avoid the risk of explo-
sion and fire.
WARNING
Never attempt to recharge a
frozen battery: defrost it first
to prevent the risk of explosion. If a
battery was frozen, have it inspect-
ed by specialised personnel before
recharging to check that the internal
elements are not damaged and that
the casing is not cracked causing the
risk of leakage of poisonous, corrosive
gas.
