The vehicle's driving characteristics will be modified
with the space-saver wheel fitted. Avoid violent
acceleration and braking, sharp steering and fast
cornering. The total life of a space-saver wheel is approximately
3,000 km, after which it must be replaced by another wheel of
the same type. Never attempt to fit a conventional tyre on a rim
designed for use as a space-saver wheel. Repair and refit the
standard wheel as soon as possible. Two or more space-saver
wheels should never be used together. Do not grease the threads
of bolts before fitting them: they might slip out.The jack provided is only intended to be used for
replacing tyres on the vehicle with which it is supplied,
or on same-model vehicles. Never use the jack for
other purposes, such as lifting other car models. Never use it for
repair operations under the vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the
jack may cause the car to fall. Do not use the jack for loads
higher than those shown on the label. Never install snow chains
on the small spare wheel; if a front tyre (driving wheel) is
punctured and you need to use snow chains, use a standard
wheel from the rear axle and install the small spare wheel on the
rear axle. In this way, with two normal front drive wheels, it is
possible to use snow chains.Incorrectly fitting the hubcap may cause it to fall off
when the vehicle is in motion. Never tamper with the
inflating valve. Never introduce tools of any kind
between rim and tyre. Regularly check the inflation pressure of
the tyres and space-saver wheel (see chapter "Technical
specifications").
JACKPlease note that:
❒the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired and in the event of a fault it must be
replaced by another original one;
❒no tool other than its cranking device may be fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel proceed as follows:
❒stop the car in a position that is not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel safely. The ground must be flat
and sufficiently compact;
❒switch off the engine, pull up the handbrake and engage 1
agear or
reverse; put on the high visibility jacket (required by law) before
leaving the vehicle;
❒open the luggage compartment, pull tab A fig. 121 and lift up the
mat;

AUX (only with theBlue&Me™
system)(for versions/markets, where provided)INTRODUCTIONThis section describes the variants regarding the operation of the
AUX source: as far as the operation of the radio is concerned, refer
to the description in the “Functions and Adjustments” section.
AUX MODETo activate the AUX source, press the MEDIA button or the SRC
control on the steering wheel several times until the corresponding
source is displayed.
IMPORTANT
The functions of the device connected to the AUX socket are directly
managed by the device itself; it is not possible to change
track/folder/playlist with radio or steering wheel controls.
Do not leave the cable of your portable player connected to the
AUX socket after disconnection, to avoid possible hiss from the
speakers.
NOTE The AUX socket is not incorporated in the radio. For its
position, refer to theBlue&Me™ Supplement and its Quick
Guide.
