REFITTING THE WHEEL
Following the procedure previously described, raise the car and
remove the space-saver spare wheel.
Proceed as follows:
❍make sure the contact surfaces between standard wheel and
hub are clean so that the fastening bolts will not come loose;
❍for versions with steel rims: fixed the wheel hub onto the rim;
❍fit the hub cap by aligning the crescent hole with the bolt you
have fitted, then insert the other 4 bolts;
❍tighten the retaining bolts using wrench A-fig. 115;
❍lower the car and remove the jack;
❍use wrench A-fig. 115 to fully tighten the bolts, following the
sequence shown in fig. 118;
When you have finished:
❍stow the space-saver spare wheel in the compartment provid-
ed in the boot;
❍insert the jack and the other tools in the container;
❍arrange the container and tools on the space-saver spare wheel;
❍reposition the boot mat correctly.
Subwoofer and “Automatic Fix&Go Kit”
Locating the Automatic Fix&Go Kit:
❍open the boot, pull tab A-fig. 113 and lift up the mat;
❍take the “Automatic Fix&Go Kit” located on the left side of the
boot (fig. 121);
❍inflate the wheel (see “Automatic Fix&Go Kit”).

Remember that the road holding qualities of your
car also depend on the correct inflation pressure
of the tyres.WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WIPERS
Avoid switching the tyres from the right side of the
vehicle to the left side and vice versa.
Do not repaint alloy wheel rims at temperatures
higher than 150°C. The mechanical characteristics
of the wheels might be compromised.
Driving with worn wiper blades is a serious haz-
ard, because visibility is reduced in bad weather.
BLADES
We recommend replacing the blades once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility of damage to
the blades:
❍make sure that the rubber part is not frozen to the windscreen
in sub-zero temperatures. Use a de-icing product to release it
if required;
❍remove any snow from the window;
❍do not activate the windscreen/rear window wiper on a dry
window.
If the pressure is too low, the tyre will overheat and
could be seriously damaged.
