Do not start the engine
when towing the vehicle.
WARNING
Before screwing the drawbar
eye, carefully clean the rela-
tive threaded part. Before starting to
tow the vehicle, take care also to
have completely tightened the draw-
bar eye onto the threaded pin.
WARNING
Before starting to tow, disen-
gage the steering lock (see
paragraph “Ignition device” in section
“Dashboard and controls”).
When towing, remember that without
the help of the brake booster and
power steering, a greater effort is re-
quired on the pedal and steering
wheel. Do not use flexible cables for
towing and avoid jerks. During tow-
ing operations make sure that fasten-
ing the joint to the vehicle does not
damage the components in contact
with it. When towing the vehicle, you
must comply with the specific traffic
regulations regarding the tow ring and
how to tow on the road.
WARNING

TOWING THE VEHICLE
The tow ring provided with the vehicle is
housed in the engine compartment as
shown in fig. 26.
TOW RING HOOKING
Proceed as follows:
❒open the bonnet and release the tow
ring A-fig. 26from its seat;
❒take away the front or rear door B-
fig. 27using the supplied screwdriver;
❒completely undo the drawbar eye on
the relative threaded pin.

IMPORTANT The Programmed Mainte-
nance coupons are specified by the Man-
ufacturer. The failure to have them car-
ried out may invalidate the warranty.
Scheduled Servicing is performed by all
Fiat Dealership, at pre-established times.
If during each operation, in addition to the
ones programmed, the need arises for fur-
ther replacements or repairs, these may
be carried out only with the explicit agree-
ment of the Customer.IMPORTANT You are advised to contact
Fiat Dealership in the event of any minor
operating faults, without waiting for the
next service coupon.
If your vehicle is used frequently for tow-
ing, the interval between one service
coupon and the other must be reduced.SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance is essential for en-
suring long life to your vehicle at top con-
ditions.
This is why Fiat has programmed a series
of checks and maintenance operations
every 30,000 km.
It is however important to remember that
scheduled servicing does not completely
cover all the vehicle’s requirements: also
in the initial period before 30,000 km ser-
vice coupon and later, between one
coupon and another, ordinary care is still
required such as for example routine
check and topping up the level of fluids,
tyre pressure check, etc...

(*) The towable load with trailer with brakes can be increased provided the equivalent load is unloaded from the vehicle in order to avoid ex-
ceeding the total towable load. High external temperatures could cause low engine performance. In this event (external temperature exceeding
37°C) the towable load shall be limited to 700 kg without carrying other loads. If towing trailers never exceed 100 km/h speed (observe the reg-
ulations in force in your Country).High roof
