Automatic FIX&GO QUICK TYRE
REPAIR KIT
(for versions/markets where provided)
The automatic tyre Fix & Go repair kit is positioned at
the front of the vehicle passenger compartment and
includes:
❒cylinder A containing sealer and fitted with:
– a transparent filler pipe B;
– a black pressure restoring pipe E;
– an adhesive label C with the message “max.
80 km/h” to be applied in a position clearly visible
by the driver (on the dashboard) after repairing
the tyre;
❒instruction brochure (see fig. 171), to be used for
prompt and proper use of the quick repair kit and
then to be handed to the personnel charged with
handling the treated tyre;
Each time the spare wheel is moved,
check that it is correctly positioned in its
housing under the floor. If it is not correctly
positioned, this could adversely affect safety.
WARNING
❒introduce the supplied wrench C-fig. 162 with the
suitable extension B-fig. 161 on the screw A-fig. 161
of the spare wheel housing manoeuvring device and
turn clockwise 2 to lift the spare wheel back up until
it is fully supported in its housing beneath the floor
pan, checking that the attachment reference
D-fig. 162 appears in the window on the device.
❒Check the correct position of the replaced wheel
under the floor (the lifting system is supplied with
a clutch to limit the end of the stroke). Incorrect
positioning may jeopardise safety.

Hand the leaflet over to the staff who
have to manage the tyre treated using
the tyre repair kit.
WARNING
In the case of a puncture, caused by
a foreign body, tyres that have suffered
damage up to a maximum diameter of
4 mm on the tread or the shoulder can be
repaired.
The kit cannot be used to repair damage
to the tyre sidewall. Do not use the quick
repair kit if the tyre is damaged as the vehicle has
run on a flat tyre.
WARNING
If the wheel rim is damaged (bad groove
distortion causing air leakage) it cannot
be repaired. Do not remove the foreign body
(screw or nail) 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 sealing fluid will expire.
Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk
of overheating. The quick repair kit is not
suitable for definitive repairs. Tyres may only be
repaired temporarily.

INFLATION PROCEDURE
The cylinder contains ethylene glycol.
Contains latex: may cause an allergic
reaction. Harmful if swallowed. Eye irritant.
May cause sensitisation on inhalation or
contact. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and
clothes. In the event of contact, wash
immediately with plenty of water. Do not
induce vomiting if swallowed. Rinse your mouth
and drink plenty of water. Call a doctor
immediately. Keep away from children.
The product must not be used by asthmatics.
Do not breathe in the vapours during insertion
and suction. Call a doctor immediately if
allergic reactions are noted. Store the bottle in
the specific compartment, away from sources of
heat. The sealant fluid has a limited life.
WARNING
Replace the bottle containing out of date

For a more accurate reading, it is advisable to check
the pressure reading on the pressure gauge F-fig. 173
with the compressor off and without moving the
centre selector from the repair position;
❒if a pressure of at least 3 bar is not reached within
10 minutes, detach the transparent filler pipe from
the valve and switch off the 12 V current pin, then
move the vehicle about 10 metres forward to
distribute the sealant liquid inside the tyre and repeat
the inflation operation;
❒if after this operation it is still not possible to reach
at least 3 bar after 10 minutes, do not start driving
since the tyre is excessively damaged and the fast
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee adequate hold.
Contact a Fiat Dealership;
❒if the tyre reaches the pressure specified in the
“Inflation pressure” paragraph in the „Technical
Specifications“ chapter, start driving immediately;
Apply the adhesive label in a position
clearly visible by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the quick
repair kit. Drive carefully, particularly on bends.
Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do not accelerate and
brake suddenly.
WARNING
❒After driving for about 10 minutes stop and check
the tyre pressure again; pull up the handbrake.
If the pressure falls below 3 bars, do not
drive any further: the quick tyre repair kit
Fix & Go automatic cannot guarantee adequate
hold because the tyre is too damaged. Contact
a Fiat Dealership.
