IMPORTANT The Dualdrive electric
power steering has an electronic
damping effect while approaching the
end of stroke. In some manoeuvring
conditions, the steering wheel might
rotate a bit before touching its
mechanical stop. This behaviour is
standard as it takes place to prevent
strong impacts on the mechanical
components inside the device.

The activation of the function is
signalled by the switching on of the
LED located on the button and by the
displaying of the word CITY on the
instrument panel or, depending on the
version, on the display.When the power steering is on, the
steering wheel effort is lighter, making
parking easier: therefore, this function is
particularly useful for driving in city
centres.
WARNING
33)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in non-compliance
of the vehicle with type-approval
requirements.
34)Before performing any maintenance
operations, always turn off the engine and
remove the key from the ignition to lock the
steering column (especially when the car
wheels are not touching the ground). If this
is not possible (for example if the key
needs to be turned to MAR or the engine
must be running), remove the main fuse
that protects the electric power steering.

IN AN EMERGENCY
A punctured tyre or a burnt-out bulb?
At times, a problem may interfere
with our journey.
The pages on emergencies can help
you to deal with critical situations
independently and with calm.
In an emergency we recommend that
you call the freephone number found in
the Warranty Booklet.
It is also possible to call the national or
international universal freephone

IN AN EMERGENCY

127)If the pressure has fallen below 1.8
bar, do not drive any further: the Fix&Go
Automatic kit cannot guarantee proper
hold because the tyre is too damaged.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
128)You must always indicate that the tyre
was repaired using the Fix&Go Automatic
kit. Give the booklet to the technicians who
will be handling the tyre that was treated
using the Fix&Go Automatic kit.
129)Repairs are not possible in the case of
damage to the wheel rim (bad groove
distortion causing air loss). Do not remove
foreign bodies (screws or nails) from the
tyre.
130)Never operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk
of overheating. The Fix&Go Automatic kit is
not suitable for definitive repairs, so the
repaired tyres may only be used
temporarily.
131)The information required by current
regulations, regarding the chemical
substances for the protection of human
health and the environment and on the safe
use of the sealing fluid, are on the
packaging label. Compliance with the
indications on the label is an essential
condition to ensure the safety and
the effectiveness of the product.
Remember to carefully read the label
before use; the user of the product
is responsible for any damages caused by
improper use. The sealing fluid has an
expiry date. Replace the bottle if the
sealant has expired.
WARNING
64)In the event of a puncture caused by
foreign bodies, the kit may be used to
repair tyres showing damage on the tread
or shoulder up to max. 4 mm diameter.
WARNING
3)Dispose of the bottle and the sealant
properly. Dispose of the components
in compliance with national and local
regulations.
