COLD TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE (bar)
When the tyres are warm, the inflation pressure should be +0.3 bar compared with the prescribed value. However, recheck that
the value is correct with the tyre cold. With snow tyres, add +0.2 bar to the pressure value prescribed for standard tyres.

(*) After using the spare wheel in an emergency, where necessary, align the pressure of the wheel to the recommended value as soon as possible, with reference to
the following table.
SNOW CHAINS78)
Front- and all-wheel drive versions: 7-mm snow chains can be used on 215/65 R16 tyres. Chains cannot be fitted on
215/60 R17 and 225/55 R18 tyres.
Important
The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations of each country. In certain countries, tyres marked with
code M+S (Mud and Snow) are considered as winter equipment; therefore their use is equivalent to that of the snow chains.
The snow chains may be applied only to the front wheel tyres.
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first few metres have been driven.
Using snow chains with tyres with non-original dimensions may damage the vehicle.
Using different size or type (M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between front and rear axle may adversely affect vehicle driveability, with the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and resulting accidents.
WARNING
78)Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and pavements and avoid driving for
long distances on roads not covered with snow to prevent damaging the vehicle and the road surface.

MINIMUM GROUND CLEARANCE/TYPICAL ANGLES
"Minimum ground clearance" (reference A fig. 158)
The clearance value is measured next to the lower edge of the differential. This value also defines those for the "Approach
angle" the "Departure angle" and the "Breakover angle".
Dimensions are expressed in mm and refer to the vehicle equipped with its standard-supplied tyres.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 171 mm
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 201 mm
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 225 mm

"Approach angle" (reference B fig. 158)
The approach angle is determined by the horizontal line of the road surface and by the tangent line passing between the front
wheel and the most projecting low point of the vehicle.
The wider the angle, the lower the chance to hit an obstacle with the body or chassis, climbing a steep slope or overcoming an
obstacle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 17.9°
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 21°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 30.5°
"Departure angle" (reference C fig. 158)
The departure angle is determined by the same lines of the "Approach angle", and refers to the rear part of the vehicle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 29.7°
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 32.1°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 34.3°
"Breakover angle" (reference D fig. 158)
The value of the "Breakover angle" is linked to the ground clearance of the vehicle and indicates the attitude of the vehicle to
overcome a wedge, more or less steep, preventing the vehicle from resting on the ground with the body or chassis after
touching the wedge with its lowest and most projecting parts (usually the underbody), this would highly reduce wheel grip.
The wheels, without a suitable grip to the ground, will not have sufficient hold to move the vehicle, and will surge.
The higher the ground clearance, the wider the breakover angle. Always bear in mind that the higher the ground clearance, the
lower the stability, due to a higher centre of gravity which reduces the side tipping angle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 21.2°
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 24°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 25.7°

FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil that has been thoroughly developed and tested in order to meet the requirements of
the Scheduled Servicing Plan. Constant use of the prescribed lubricants guarantees the fuel consumption and emission
specifications. Lubricant quality is crucial for engine operation and duration.
