IMPORTANT Do not affix rigid objects to
the garment hooks or support handles.
IMPORTANT Do not rest your head,
arms or elbows on the door, windows or
the area in which the head protection side
bag (window bag) deploys to avoid possi-
ble injury during airbag inflation.
IMPORTANT Never lean your head, arms
or elbows out of the window.
WINDOW BAG fig. 16
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These comprise two “curtain” bags, one
on the right side and one on the left side
of the vehicle, housed behind the roof side
linings and covered by special trims. They
are designed to protect the head of front
and rear occupants in the event of a side
impact, thanks to the wide cushion infla-
tion surface.
In the event of a side impact, the system
provides best protection if the passenger
sits on the seat in a correct position, thus
allowing correct deployment of the side
bags.

SIDE BAG - fig. 15
(for versions/markets, where provided)
They are located in the backrests of the
door side front seats, and include an in-
stantly inflating bag which protect the
pelvis, chest and shoulder area of the oc-
cupants in the event of a side impact of
medium-high severity.

❒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.

BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using
special products; TUTELA PROFES-
SIONAL SC 35is recommended.
Change the blades if the rubber edge is
warped or worn out. You should in any case
change them approximately once a year.
A few simple notions can reduce the pos-
sibility of damage to the blades:
❒ if the temperature fall below zero,
make sure that ice has not frozen the
rubber against glass. If necessary, thaw
using an antifreeze product;
❒ remove any snow from the glass: in ad-
dition to protecting the blades, this pre-
vents effort on the motor and over-
heating;
❒do not operate the windscreen wipers
on dry glass.
Driving with worn wiper
blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
WARNING
RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber
hoses are concerned, carefully follow the
“Service schedule” in this section.
Indeed ozone, high temperatures and pro-
longed lack of fluid in the system may
cause hardening and cracking of the hoses,
with possible leaks. Careful control is
therefore necessary.If the pressure is too low the
tyre overheats and this can
cause it serious damage.
WARNING
Do not cross switch the
tyres, moving them from the
right of the vehicle to the left and vice
versa.
WARNING
Never submit alloy rims to
repainting treatments re-
quiring to use temperatures exceed-
ing 150°C since the mechanical prop-
erties of the wheels could be im-
paired.
