2010 FIAT PUNTO EVO Heating

In the event of a puncture caused by for-
eign bodies, it is possible to repair tyres
showing holes on the track or shoulder of
up to 4 mm in diameter.
It is not possible to repair damage to the
tyre sidewall. Do not use the quick repair kit
if the tyre is damaged as a result of travelling on a
flat tyre.
WARNING
If the wheel rim is damaged (the channel
is so deformed as to cause an air leakage)
it cannot be repaired. Do not remove foreign bod-
ies (screws or nails) from the tyre.
WARNING
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
The sealing fluid of the quick tyre repair kit is effective at
external temperatures of between –20 °C and +50 °C.
The sealant has an expiry date.
Do not operate the compressor for longer
than 20 minutes at a time. Risk of over-
heating. The quick repair kit is not suitable for de-
finitive repairs, so you can only temporarily repair
the tyres.
WARNING
The canister contains ethylene glycol. It
contains latex, which may cause an aller-
gic reaction. Harmful if swallowed. Irritates the
eyes. There could be a reaction in case of inhala-
tion or contact. Avoid contact with your eyes, skin
and clothes. In the event of contact, wash imme-
diately with plenty of water. Do not induce vom-
iting if swallowed. Rinse your mouth out and drink
plenty of water. Call a doctor immediately. Keep
out of the reach of children. The product must not
be used by asthmatics. Do not breathe in the
vapours during insertion and suction. Call a doc-
tor immediately if allergic reactions are noted.
Store the canister in its proper compartment,
away from sources of heat. The sealant fluid has
an expiry date.

RUBBER TUBES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are con-
cerned, stick closely to the “Scheduled Servicing Plan” in
this section.
Ozone, high temperatures and a prolonged lack of fluid
in the system may cause hardening and cracking of the
tubes, which could result in leaks.
Careful inspections are therefore necessary.

WINDSCREEN WIPER
BLADES
Clean the rubber part regularly using special products;
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC35 is recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is misshapen or
worn. In any event, it is advisable to replace them ap-
proximately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility of dam-
age to the blades:
❒make sure that the rubber part is not frozen to the
windscreen in sub-zero temperatures. Use an antifreeze
product to release it if required;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in addition to pro-
tecting the blades, this prevents the electric motor from
overheating;
❒ do not operate the windscreen wipers on dry glass.
Driving with worn wiper blades is a serious
hazard, because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
