IMPORTANT With hot ambient temperature, warning light stays on for very short time.
Turning the ignition key to Mthe warning light turns on, but it should go off after few sec-
onds. The warning light turns on when there is water in the diesel fuel filter.

The presence of water in the fuel circuit may cause serious damage to the
entire injection system and cause irregular engine operation. If the warning
light turns on, contact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible to have the sys-
tem relieved. If the above indications come on immediately after refuelling,
water has probably been poured into the tank: turn the engine off immediately and
contact Fiat Dealership.

onds. The warning light turns on when a scheduled servicing operation is to be carried out.

If the battery is flat, it is possible to start
the engine using an auxiliary battery with
the same capacity or a little higher than
the flat one.

CORRECT USE
OF THE

IN AN
EMERGENCY
Proceed as follows:
❒Connect positive terminals (+near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a
jump lead;
❒With a second lead, connect the nega-
tive terminal (–) of the auxiliary battery
to an earthing point
Eon the engine or
the gearbox of the vehicle to be start-
ed;
❒ Start the engine;
❒ When the engine has been started, re-
move the leads reversing the order
above.
If after a few attempts the engine does not
start, do not insist but contact the near-
est Fiat Dealership.IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the
negative terminals of the two batteries:
sparks could ignite the flammable gas from
the battery. If the other battery is fitted in
another vehicle, prevent accidental con-
tacts between the metal parts of the two
vehicles.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing, or coasting downhill) as this could
cause fuel to flow into the catalytic ex-
haust system and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
booster and the power steering system
are not operating until the engine is start-
ed, a greater effort will therefore be re-
quired to press the brake pedal or to turn
the steering wheel.
fig. 1F0P0186m
The starting procedure must
be carried out by qualified
personnel because incorrect opera-
tions may cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. The liquid con-
tained in the battery is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames and light-
ed cigarettes away from the battery
and do not cause sparks.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and spare wheel call for some pre-
cautions as listed below.
Alert other drivers that the
vehicle is stationary in com-
pliance with the regulations in force:
hazard warning lights, warning trian-
gle etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the vehicle, especially if
it is heavily laden. Passengers should
stay away from oncoming traffic
while the wheel is being changed on.
Pull the handbrake.
WARNING
Before starting to change
the wheel, deactivate the
pneumatic suspension system (for
versions/markets, where provided).
See paragraph “Pneumatic suspen-
sions” in this section.
WARNING
The spare wheel is specific to
your vehicle, do not use it on
other models, or use the spare wheel
of other models on your vehicle.
Wheel bolts are specific to your vehi-
cle: do not use them on other models
and do not use bolts of other models.
WARNING
Have the punctured wheel
repaired and refitted as soon
as possible. Do not grease the threads
of bolts before installing them: they
might slip out.
WARNING
The jack shall only be used
for changing wheels on the
vehicle with which it is provided or on
vehicles of the same model. It must
not be used for other purposes such
as for instance raising vehicles of oth-
er models. In no case should it be used
for repairs under the vehicle. Incor-
rect positioning of the jack may cause
the jacked vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack for higher capacities than
stated on its label.
WARNING
Fasten the wheel cap cor-
rectly to prevent the wheel
from coming free in motion.
Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never place tools between the
rim and tyre. Check and restore, if re-
quired, the pressure of tyres and
spare wheel to the values given in sec-
tion “Technical Specifications”.
WARNING
Please note:
❒ the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
❒ the jack requires no adjustment;
❒ the jack cannot be repaired. If it breaks
it must be replaced with a new jack;
❒ no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.

To change a wheel proceed as
follows:
❒Stop the vehicle in a position that is not
dangerous for oncoming traffic where you
can change the wheel safely. The ground
should be flat and adequately firm;
❒ Turn the engine off and pull up the
handbrake;
❒Engage first gear or reverse;
❒Wear the reflecting safety jacket (com-
pulsory by law in certain countries) be-
fore getting out of the vehicle;
❒On certain versions to take the jack
you have to open the protection lid A-
fig. 2;
❒Take the operating handle A-fig. 3 out
of the relevant retainers;
❒Loosen the locking device B-fig. 3;
❒Use handle B-fig. 3to loosen the spare
wheel support locking bolt fig. 4;
❒Remove the hub-cap (for versions/mar-
kets, where provided) by using the sup-
plied tool;
❒Loosen one turn the bolts of the wheel
to change;
❒Turn the handle to extend the jack par-
tially;
❒Set the jack in the proper seat close to
the wheel to change;
❒Make sure the jack slot fits properly on-
to the side member tab;
❒Warn anybody nearby that the vehicle
is about to be lifted. They must stay
clear and not touch the vehicle until it
is back on the ground;
❒Turn the jack handle and lift the vehicle
until the wheel to be changed is sever-
al centimetres off the ground. When
turning the jack handle make sure that
it can be used easily and take care not
to scrape your hand against the ground.
The moving parts of the jack (screw and
joints) may also cause injury if touched.
Clean off any grease;

❒Remove the hub-cap by using the tool
supplied with the vehicle. Unscrew the
anti-theft bolt (versions with alloy
wheel rims) (one per wheel) by using
the tool supplied with the vehicle and
then the remaining bolts so as to re-
move the wheel;
❒Make sure the contact surfaces between
spare wheel and hub are clean so that
the fastening bolts will not come loose.
Fit the spare wheel making one of the
holes C-fig. 6coincide with pin B;
❒Tighten the 5 fastening bolts;
❒Turn the jack handle to lower the ve-
hicle and remove the jack;
❒Fasten bolts completely, working in a
criss-cross fashion as shown in fig. 7;
❒Refit the wheel cap (for versions/ mar-
kets, where provided).When you have finished:
❒Stove the flat tyre into the proper hous-
ing under the floor and tighten the lock-
ing bolt;
❒Refit the handle and the jack into the rel-
evant retaining system;
❒Refit the tool retaining system by tight-
ening it into the relevant seat by means
of the locking device.
IMPORTANT Check the inflation pres-
sure of the tyres and the spare wheel reg-
ularly.IMPORTANT You will need to change the
set of bolts if you want to change the type
of wheels fitted (alloy rims instead of steel
rims, and vice versa). You will have to
change the entire set of fastening bolts
with another set of suitably sized bolts.
You should keep the bolts and spare
wheel in case you decide to use the orig-
inal type of wheel later on.

QUICK TYRE REPAIR
KIT FIX & GO
The quick tyre repair kit consists of a
compressor and a bottle (containing seal-
ing fluid).
Using the kit
1. Mark the flat tyre on the speed limit-
ing sticker. Stick the label on the steer-
ing wheel as a reminder that the car has
a temporary wheel.
2. Fix the bottle 1on the compressor 2.
3. Connect the bottle 1to the valve of the
tyre to be repaired.
4. Properly unfold the compressor pipe
before connecting it to the bottle.
5. Connect the electric wire to one of the
12 V vehicle sockets.
6. By pushing the button A, operate the
compressor until the tyre pressure
reaches 2.0 bar. If such pressure cannot
be reached, the tyre is irrepairable.7. Disconnect and store the compressor.
8. Drive at low speed for a few kilometres
to seal the puncture.
9. Use the compressor to adjust the pres-
sure following the recommended pro-
cedure for the vehicle and check that
the puncture is correctly sealed (no
pressure loss).
10. Drive at low speed (80 km/h). The
tyre must be checked and repaired by
a specialist as soon as possible.Once used, the bottle can be stored in the
plastic bag supplied with the kit to prevent
the fluid from staining the vehicle.
Do not dispose of the bottle in the envi-
ronment after use; have it recycled by a
Fiat Dealership or a designated body.
The bottle is available at every Fiat Deal-
ership.
