for vehicles with alloy rims take the
adapter D fig. 195 and fit the plastic
spacer C between the spring and the
flange of the bracket. The plastic fin
must be directed downwards and
perfectly coincide with the flange cut
part;
fit the bracket E fig. 196 in the
adapter D, fit the pin in the hole and
fasten by the knob F;
position the wheel vertically and rest
the fitted adaptor on the inside of the
rim, then using the screws provided fix
the wheel to the adaptor, using the
socket wrench for the wheel nuts G fig.
197. Tighten the screws with the wheel
removal wrench.
NOTE Use the spare wheel covering
bag to protect the replaced alloy wheel.
Check that the position of the
replaced wheel under the platform is
correct (the lifting system is equipped
with a clutch to limit the end of the
stroke, incorrect positioning may
jeopardise safety;)
put the jack and the tools back in
the dedicated tool bag;
reposition the tool bag behind the
left side seat (Cargo versions) or, resting
the bottom of the bag against the side
panel, in the compartment inside the
rear right side (Doblò/Doblò Combi
versions).
WARNING
125)The spare wheel (where provided) is
specifically for your vehicle. Therefore, it
must not be used on other models. Do not
use spare wheels of other models on
your vehicle. The spare wheel must be
used only in an emergency. Use of the
spare wheel must kept to the minimum
necessary.

(*) For 1.4 Turbo Petrol versions, in order to guarantee correct operation and prevent serious damage to the engine, it is essential to observe the following: only use
spark plugs specifically certified for these engines; all spark plugs should be of the same type and brand (see the “Engine” paragraph in the "Technical
Specifications" section); strictly comply with the replacement intervals in the Scheduled Servicing Plan; you are advised to contact a Fiat Dealership to have plugs
replaced.
(**) Irrespective of the mileage, the timing drive belt must be changed every 4 years for heavy-duty use (cold climates, town use, long periods of idling) or at least
every 5 years.

8. Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The vehicle’s
heated rear window, additional
headlights, screen wipers and heater
fan require a considerable amount
of energy; this increases fuel
consumption (by up to +25% in an
urban cycle).
9. Air conditioning leads to higher fuel
consumption (on average up to +30%).
If the temperature outside is not too
extreme, try and use the air vents.
Driving style
1. After starting the engine you should
drive away immediately and slowly,
avoiding high revs. Do not warm up the
engine at low or high revs when the
vehicle is stationary; this causes the
engine to warm up more slowly, thereby
increasing fuel consumption, emissions
and mechanical component wear.
2. Avoid pointless actions such
as revving up when at traffic lights or
before stopping the engine. The latter
action, like double-declutching, is
unnecessary and causes increased fuel
consumption and pollution.3. Gear selection: select a high gear as
soon as possible (taking into account
normal engine operation and traffic
conditions) without pushing the engine
to high revs during the intermediate
gears. Using low gears at high revs to
get lively acceleration increases fuel
consumption, harmful emissions and
engine wear.
4. Vehicle speed: fuel consumption
increases exponentially as the speed of
the vehicle increases. Keep your speed
moderate and as even as possible,
avoiding unnecessary braking and
acceleration, which cause excessive
fuel consumption and increased
emissions. Keeping a safe distance
from the vehicle in front helps to
maintain a steady speed.
5. Acceleration: accelerating violently
severely affects consumption and
emissions. Acceleration should be
gradual and should not exceed the
maximum engine torque rate.
