Detection distancesIf several obstacles are detected by the
sensors, only the nearest one is
considered.Indication on displayThe indications regarding the Park
Assist system are shown on the
instrument panel display only if the
"Acoustic signal and display" item in the
"Settings" menu of theUconnect™
system is selected (for more
information, see the description in the
dedicated chapter).
The system indicates the presence of
an obstacle by displaying a single arc in
one of the possible areas, in
accordance with the distance of the
object and the position in relation to the
vehicle. If the obstacle is detected in
the rear central area, a single arc will be
displayed as the obstacle approaches,
first constant, then flashing, in addition
to an acoustic signal.OPERATION WITH
TRAILERThe operation of the sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electrical connection is inserted
in the vehicle's tow hook socket.Sensors are reactivated on removing
the trailer's electrical connection.
Before using the Park Assist system, it
is recommended to remove the tow
hook ball assembly and the relevant
attachment from the vehicle Failure to
comply with this prescription may
cause personal injuries or damage to
vehicles or obstacles since, when
the continuous acoustic signal is
emitted, the tow hook ball is already in
a position that is much closer to the
obstacle than the rear bumper. In
addition, the sensors may provide a
false indication, interpreting the tow
hook ball assembly and the relevant
attachment as an obstacle in the area
behind the vehicle.
GENERAL WARNINGSSome conditions may influence the
performance of the parking system:
❒reduced sensor sensitivity and a
reduction in the parking assistance
system performance could be due to
the presence of: ice, snow, mud, paint,
etc. on the surface of the sensor;
❒the sensor may detect a non-existent
obstacle ("echo interference") due to
mechanical interference, for example
when washing the vehicle, in rain
(strong wind), hail;❒the signals sent by the sensor can
also be altered by the presence of
ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brake systems of trucks or pneumatic
drills) near the vehicle;
❒Parking assistance system
performance can also be influenced by
the position of the sensors, for example
due to a change in the ride setting
(caused by wear to the shock
absorbers, suspension), or by changing
tyres, overloading the vehicle or fitting
specific trims that require the vehicle to
be lowered;
❒the presence of a tow hook without
trailer, which may interfere with the
correct operation of the parking
sensors. If a fixed tow hook is installed,
the parking sensors cannot operate
correctly. In the case of vehicles fitted
with removable tow hook, whether
as standard or installed after the vehicle
was purchased, it is advisable to
remove it whenever it is not used, to
prevent incorrect operation of the
sensors;
❒the presence of adhesives on the
sensors. Therefore, take care not to
place adhesives on the sensors.

❒use the key A fig. 124 to loosen the
fixing stud bolts by about one turn.
With alloy rims it is recommended to
"shake" the vehicle to facilitate
detachment of the rim from the wheel
hub;
❒position the jack under the vehicle,
near the wheel to be changed;❒insert the key A fig. 125 on the
hexagonal part of the jack B to extend it
until the top splined area fits correctly
into the sidemember C of the vehicle,
next to the symbol
on the
sidemember itself;
❒alert any bystander that the vehicle is
about to be raised; all persons should
be kept away from the vehicle and
nobody must touch it until it has been
lowered;❒use the key A to operate the jack
(clockwise) and lift the vehicle until the
wheel is several centimetres off the
ground;
❒use the key A to undo the stud bolts
completely and remove the punctured
tyre;
❒make sure the contact surfaces
between space-saver wheel and hub
are clean and free from impurities
so that the fixing stud bolts will not
come loose;
❒in order to facilitate fitting of the
space-saver wheel, tighten the centring
pin in the higher hole of the wheel
hub, then fit the space-saver wheel,
screwing in the first stud bolt by hand
for at least two threads;
❒remove the centring pin and screw in
the other stud bolts by hand;
❒tighten all the retaining stud bolts
using the key A;
❒operate the key A (anticlockwise) on
the hexagonal part of the jack, in order
to lower the vehicle, then extract it;
❒use the key A to fully tighten the stud
bolts in a criss-cross fashion as per
the numerical sequence shown in fig.

LIFTING THE
VEHICLEIf the vehicle needs to be jacked up, go
to a Fiat Dealership, which is equipped
with shop jacks and jack arms.
The vehicle lifting points are marked on
the side skirts with the
symbols
(see illustration in fig. 145).
WHEELS AND TYRES
170) 171) 172) 173)
RIMS AND TYRESFor the type of wheel rims and tyres
fitted on the vehicle see the "Wheels"
paragraph in the "Technical data"
chapter.SNOW CHAINS
73)
Front Wheel Drive and All Wheel
Drive versions7-mm snow chains can be used on
215/60 R16 95H and 215/55 R17 94V
tyres.
225/45 R18 91V and 225/45 R18 91Y
tyres cannot be fitted with snow chains.ImportantThe 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.IMPORTANT Using snow chains with
tyres with non-original dimensions may
damage the vehicle.
IMPORTANT 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.
SUGGESTIONS ABOUT
THE ROTATION OF THE
TYRES
174)
The front and rear tyres are subject to
different loads and stress due to
steering, manoeuvres and braking. For
this reason they are subject to uneven
wear.
To resolve this problem, tyres should be
rotated at the appropriate time. Tyre
rotation means moving the wheels to a
different position, with respect to the
vehicle. The single wheel will therefore
operate on a different axle and, where
possible, on the opposite side of the
vehicle.
Tyre rotation contributes to the
preservation of the grip and traction
performance on wet, muddy or snowy
roads, guaranteeing optimal driveability
of the vehicle.

In the case of irregular wear of the tyres
identify the cause and correct it as
soon as possible, by contacting a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
170)Remember that the vehicle's road
holding depends on correct tyre pressures.
171)If the pressure is too low, the tyre will
overheat and could be seriously damaged.
172)Avoid switching one-way tyres from
the right side of the vehicle to the left
side and vice versa. This type of tyres can
only be switched from the front axle to
the rear axle and vice versa, keeping them
on the same side of the vehicle.
173)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
174)The wheel rotation methods shown in
the text must NOT be used with one-way
tyres! This type of tyres can only be
switched from the front axle to the rear axle
and vice versa, keeping them on the same
side of the vehicle.
WARNING
73)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.
BODYWORKPRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paintwork
74)7)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Maintenance of paintwork consists of
washing the vehicle: the frequency
depends on the conditions and
environment in which the vehicle is
used. For example, it is advisable to
wash the vehicle more often in areas
with high levels of atmospheric pollution
or salted roads.
Some parts of the vehicle may be
covered with a matt paint which, in
order to be maintained intact, requires
special care: see the instructions in
the warning at the end of this
paragraph
75).
To correctly wash the vehicle, follow
these instructions:
❒if the vehicle is washed remove the
aerial from the roof;
