made on the pedal. Do not use wires for
towing. Do not jerk. During towing op-
erations make sure not to damage parts
in contact with the vehicle. When tow-
ing the vehicle comply with the specific
rules of the Highway Code regarding the

must only be used for emer-
gency situations on the road.
The vehicle may be towed for
short distances when a dedicated de-
vice is used in compliance with the
Highway Code (rigid bar), in order to
move the vehicle on the road in prepa-
ration for towing by a tow truck Tow
hooks MUST NOT be used to tow ve-
hicles off the road or where there are
obstacles and/or for towing operations
using cables or other non-rigid devices.

ing must only take place with two ve-
hicles (one towing, the other towed)

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential for ensur-
ing long vehicle life under the best condi-
tions.
This is why Fiat has planned a series of
checks and maintenance operations every
30,000 km.
Scheduled servicing will not however ful-
ly cover all of the needs of your vehicle.
Even before carrying out the 30,000 km
service coupon, and later between one
consecutive coupons, ordinary vehicle
care is still required such as for example
routine checks to top up the fluid levels,
if necessary, tyre pressure checks, etc.IMPORTANT Scheduled service coupons
are required by the manufacturer. Non-
performance of service coupons may
cause the warranty to become null and
void.
Scheduled Servicing is performed by all Fi-
at Dealerships at pre-established times.
If during scheduled servicing, the need aris-
es for further replacements or repairs,
these may be carried out exclusively af-
ter obtaining the explicit agreement from
the Customer.IMPORTANT You are advised to contact
the Fiat Dealership in the event of any mi-
nor operating faults, without waiting for
the next service coupon.
If your vehicle is used frequently for tow-
ing, the interval between service coupons
must be reduced.
