2013 FIAT PANDA tyre pressure

WARNING
Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc . Any passengers on board should
leave the car, especially if it is heavily laden.
Passengers should stay away from on-coming
traffic while the wheel is being changed. On hills
or uneven roads, use chocks or appropriate
objects to block the wheels of the vehicle.
WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics will
be modified with the space-saver wheel
fitted. Avoid violent acceleration and braking,
abrupt steering and fast cornering.The overall
duration of the space-saver spare wheel is
of about 3000 km, after which the relevant tyre
must be replaced with another one of the
same type. Never install a traditional tyre on a
rim designed to be used as a small spare wheel.
Have the wheel repaired and refitted as soon
as possible. Using two or more small spare
wheels at the same time is forbidden. Do not
apply grease to the bolt threads before fitting:
they could unscrew themselves.
WARNING
The jack may be used to replace wheels
only on the car that it comes with or
other cars of the same model. Never use the
jack for other purposes, such as lifting other car
models. Never use it for repair operations
under the car. Incorrectly positioning 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 space-saver
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 space-saver spare wheel on the rear
axle. In this way, with two normal front drive
wheels, it is possible to use snow chains.
WARNING
If the hub cap is not fitted correctly, it
may come off when the car is travelling.
Never tamper with the inflation valve. Never
introduce tools of any kind between rim and
tyre. Check tyre and space-saver wheel
pressures regularly, complying with the values
given in the "Technical specifications" chapter.

INFLATION PROCEDURE
WARNING
Put on the protective gloves provided
together with quick tyre repair kit .
Proceed as follows:
❒Pull up the handbrake.Unscrew the tyre valve
cap, take out the filler hose A fig. 120 and tighten
the ring nut B on the tyre valve;❒make sure that the compressor switch A fig. 121 is
in position 0 (off ), start the engine, plug into the
power socket in the central tunnel fig. 122 and
operate the compressor turning switch A to
position I (on). Inflate the tyre to the pressure
specified in the "Inflation pressure" paragraph in
the "Technical specifications" section. Check tyre
pressure on gauge B fig. 121 with compressor
off to obtain a more precise reading;
❒if after five minutes it is still impossible to reach at
least 1.8 bar, disengage the compressor from the
valve and power socket, then move the car
forwards by approx. ten metres in order
to distribute the sealing fluid inside the tyre evenly,
then repeat the inflation operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannot reach at least
1.8 bar after 5 minutes from switching on the
compressor, do not resume driving but contact a
Fiat Dealership;

WARNING
Apply the adhesive label where it can be
easily seen by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the quick
repair kit . Drive carefully, particularly on bends.

the tyre pressure again;pull up the handbrake;
For the safety of the car when it is parked, follow
the indication in the paragraph "When parked"
in the chapter "Starting up and driving" .

If the pressure has fallen below 1.8 bar,
do not drive any further: the quick
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee the correct
hold because the tyre is too damaged. Contact
a Fiat Dealership.
❒if a pressure value of at least 1.8 bar is detected,
restore the correct pressure (with the engine
running and the handbrake engaged), resume
driving and drive with great care to the nearest
Fiat Dealership.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICINGCorrect servicing is essential in guaranteeing a long
life for the car under the best conditions.
Fiat has therefore arranged a series of checks and
service operations to be carried out every 30,000
kilometres (for petrol versions) or every 35,000
kilometres (for diesel versions).
Check the items on the Scheduled Servicing Plan
(e.g. periodically check level of liquids, tyre pressure,
etc.) before 30,000/35,000 km and between these
services deadlines.
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all Fiat Dealerships
according to a set time schedule. If, during each
operation, in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or repairs,these may be carried out only with the explicit
agreement of the Customer. If your car is
used frequently for towing, the interval between one
service operation and the next should be reduced.
WARNING
At 2,000 km from the next service operation the
display will show a message.
The Scheduled Services intervals are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them carried out
may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform a Fiat Dealership of any small
operating irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
