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
performed.
Low amperage slow
recharging for ap-
proximately 24 hour is advised. Rapid bat-
tery charging with high currents could
damage 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 charg-
er off before disconnecting the battery;
reconnect battery negative terminal.
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 batter y: defrost it
first to prevent the risk of explosion.
If a batter y was frozen,
have it in-
spected by specialised personnel be-
fore recharging to check that the in-
tern al elem ents are not damaged
and tha t the casing is not cracked
causing the risk of leakage of poiso-
nous, corrosive gas.

rules of the Highway Code when tow-
ing the car specifically in relation to
the towing device and the behaviour
to maintain on the road.

fully fastened in the seat before tow-
ing the car.
WARNING
Release the steering wheel
lock before towing (see “Ig-
nition device” in “Dashboard and con-
trols”). The power brakes and power
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 wires for tow-
ing. Do not jerk. 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.
