2017 FIAT 124 SPIDER wheel

Warning!
Never use the air compressor above
43.5 psi (3 Bar). Using the air compressor
at an inflation pressure above 3 Bar
(43.5 psi) continuously is dangerous. If the
air compressor overheats, hot air will be
exhausted and you could get burned.
Caution!
If the tire inflation pressure does not
increase, repair of the tire is not possible. If
the tire does not reach the specified tire
inflation pressure within 10 minutes, it may
have received extensive damage. In this
case, the repair using the tire service kit
was not successful.
Do not operate the air compressor for a
continuous 10 minutes or longer because
using it for long periods could cause a
malfunction.
13. Adhere the speed restriction sticker
to an area where it can be viewed easily
by the driver.
Warning!
Do not adhere the speed restriction sticker
to the padded area on the steering wheel.
Adhering the speed restriction sticker to
the padded area on the steering wheel is
dangerous because the air bag may not
operate (deploy) normally resulting in
serious injury. In addition, do not adhere
the sticker to areas where warning lights or
the speedometer cannot be viewed.
14. Adhere the repaired tire sticker to
the wheel of the flat tire.
15. When the tire inflates to the
specified tire inflation pressure, turn the
air compressor switch off, turn the
sleeve of the injection hose to the left,
and pull it out of the tire valve. 16. Remove the air compressor hose
from the injection valve of the bottle.
Then, install the injection hose to the
injection valve of the bottle to prevent
leakage of any remaining sealant.
Note:
The remaining sealant in the
hose may spray out when the hose is
removed. Remove the hose carefully
because you may not be able to
remove the sealant contacting clothing
or other objects.
17. Install the tire valve cap.
18. Place the tire service kit back into
its storage location.
19. Start driving immediately to spread
the sealant in the tire.

Note:Carefully drive the vehicle at a
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) or less. If
the vehicle is driven at a speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) or more, the vehicle
may vibrate.
Note: With TPMS system: if the tire is
not properly inflated, the
warning
light will illuminate.
After driving the vehicle for about
10 minutes or 3 miles (5 km), connect
the air compressor to the tire using
Step 9 of the procedure, and check the
tire inflation pressure using the tire
pressure gauge on the air compressor.
If the tire inflation pressure is lower than
the specified tire inflation pressure, turn
the air compressor on and wait until it
reaches the specified tire inflation
pressure.
the tire service kit is completed
successfully if the tire inflation pressure
does not decrease. Carefully drive the
vehicle to the nearest Authorized Dealer
immediately and have the flat tire
replaced. Replacement with a new tire
is recommended. If the tire is to be
repaired or reused, consult an
Authorized Dealer.
Note:
If an emergency flat tire repair has
been performed using the tire service
kit, FCA recommends that the tire be
replaced with a new one as soon as possible. If the tire is to be repaired or
reused, contact an Authorized Dealer.
The wheel can be reused if the
sealant adhering to it is removed.
However, replace the valve with a new
one.
Sealing A Tire With Tire
Service
Warning!
Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side
of the vehicle closest to traffic. Pull far
enough off the road to avoid the danger of
being hit when using the Tire Service Kit.
Do not use Tire Service Kit or drive the
vehicle under the following circumstances:
If the puncture in the tire tread is
approximately 1/4 inch (6 mm) or larger.
If the tire has any sidewall damage.
If the tire has any damage from driving
with extremely low tire pressure.
If the tire has any damage from driving
on a flat tire.
If the wheel has any damage.
If you are unsure of the condition of the
tire or the wheel.
Keep Tire Service Kit away from open
flames or heat source.
A loose Tire Service Kit thrown forward
in a collision or hard stop could endanger
the occupants of the vehicle. Always stow
the Tire Service Kit in the place provided.
Failure to follow these warnings can result
in injuries that are serious or fatal to you,
your passengers, and others around you.
Take care not to allow the contents of
Tire Service Kit to come in contact with
hair, eyes, or clothing. Tire Service Kit
sealant is harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or
absorbed through the skin. It causes skin,
eye, and respiratory irritation. Flush
immediately with plenty of water if there is
any contact with eyes or skin. Change
clothing as soon as possible, if there is any
contact with clothing.
Tire Service Kit Sealant solution contains
latex. In case of an allergic reaction or rash,
consult a physician immediately. Keep Tire
Service Kit out of reach of children. If
swallowed, rinse mouth immediately with
plenty of water and drink plenty of water.
Do not induce vomiting! Consult a
physician immediately.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

Mexico Market
Proceed as follows:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn
on the vehicle’s hazard warning lights.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the
wheel with the deflated tire) is in a
position that is near to the ground. This
will allow the tire service kit hoses to
reach the valve stem and keep the tire
service kit flat on the ground. This will
provide the best positioning of the kit
when injecting the sealant into the
deflated tire and running the air pump.
Move the vehicle as necessary to place
the valve stem in this position before
proceeding.
3. Shift the gear selector to Reverse (R)
for a manual transmission, and shift the
gear selector to Park (P) for an
automatic transmission.
4. Apply the parking brake with the
brake pedal depressed and turn off the
engine.
5. Unload passengers and cargo and
remove the tire service kit.6. Shake the tire sealant well. If the
bottle is shaken after the injection hose
is screwed on, tire sealant could spray
out from the injection hose. Tire sealant
contacting clothing or other objects
may be impossible to remove. Shake
the bottle before screwing on the
injection hose.
Note:
Do not shake the bottle
excessively. Otherwise, the sealant
could spray out of the injection hose,
and if the sealant contacts clothing or
other objects, you may not be able to
remove it.
The sealant hardens easily and
injecting it will be difficult under cold
weather conditions (32 °F (0 °C) or
below). Warm the sealant inside the
vehicle to facilitate injection.
7. Remove the cap from the bottle.
Screw on the injection hose with the
bottle's inner cap left on to break the
inner cap. 8. Remove the valve cap from the flat
tire. Push the back of a valve core tool
to the core of the tire valve and bleed
out all of the remaining air.

13. Reinsert the valve core into the
valve and turn it clockwise to install.
Note:
The tire sealant cannot be reused.
If the tire sealant kit has been used, or
is expired, purchase new one at an
Authorized Dealer.
Do not throw away the empty tire
sealant bottle after use. Return the
empty tire sealant bottle to an
Authorized Dealer when replacing the
tire. The empty tire sealant bottle will
need to be used to extract and dispose
of the used sealant from the tire.
14. Install the injection hose to the tab
of the bottle to prevent leakage of any
remaining sealant.
15. Adhere the speed restriction sticker
to an area where it can be viewed easily
by the driver.
Warning!
Do not adhere the speed restriction sticker
to the padded area on the steering wheel.
Adhering the speed restriction sticker to
the padded area on the steering wheel is
dangerous because the air bag may not
operate (deploy) normally resulting in
serious injury. In addition, do not adhere
the sticker to areas where warning lights or
the speedometer cannot be viewed.
16. Pull out the air compressor hose
and the air compressor plug from the
air compressor.
17. Install the air compressor hose to
the tire valve. 18. Insert the air compressor plug into
the accessory socket inside the vehicle
and place the ignition to ACC.
19. Turn the air compressor switch on
and inflate the tire carefully to the
correct inflation pressure. For the
correct pressure, check the tire inflation
pressure label on the driver's door
frame.
Note:
When inserting the air
compressor plug into or removing it
from the accessory socket, make sure
that the air compressor switch is off.
When turning the air compressor on/off,
use the air compressor switch. Before
checking the tire inflation pressure using
the tire pressure gauge, turn the air
compressor switch off.
Caution!
If the tire inflation pressure does not
increase, repair of the tire is not possible. If
the tire does not reach the specified tire
inflation pressure within 10 minutes, it may
have received extensive damage. In this
case, the repair using the tire service kit
was not successful.
Do not operate the air compressor for a
continuous 10 minutes or longer because
using it for long periods could cause a
malfunction.

rescue a vehicle stranded off road. Do not
use tow hooks for tow truck hookup or
highway towing. You could damage your
vehicle.
When using the tow eyes, always pull
the lead or chain in a straight direction
with respect to the eyelet. Never apply
a sideways force.
Note:Be careful not to damage the
towing eyelet and towing hook, vehicle
body, or transmission system when
towing under the following conditions:
Do not tow a vehicle heavier than
yours.
Do not suddenly accelerate your
vehicle as it will apply a severe shock
to the tow eye and towing hook or
rope.
Do not attach any rope other than
to the tow eye and towing hook.
EMERGENCY TOWING
TOWING DESCRIPTION
Proper lifting and towing are necessary
to prevent damage to the vehicle.
Government and local laws must be
followed.
A towed vehicle usually should have its
drive wheels (rear wheels) off the ground.
If excessive damage or other conditions
prevent this, use wheel dollies.
When towing with the rear wheels on the
ground, release the parking brake.
Caution!
DO NOT use sling-type equipment when
towing. When securing the vehicle to a
flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear
suspension components. Damage to your
vehicle may result from improper towing.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, the vehicle may be towed
with all four wheels on the ground using
the towing hook at the front of the
vehicle. Only tow the vehicle on paved
surfaces for short distances at low
speeds.
Follow these instructions when towing
the vehicle with all wheels on the
ground:
1. Shift to neutral (manual
transmission), or the N position
(automatic transmission).
2. Place the ignition to ACC.
3. Release the parking brake.
Note:
Remember that power assist for the
brakes and steering will not be available
when the engine is not running.

Tire Safety Information
Tire safety information will cover
aspects of the following information:
Tire Markings, Tire Identification
Numbers, Tire Terminology and
Definitions, Tire Pressures and Tire
Loading.
Tire Markings
Note:
P (Passenger) — Metric tire sizing is
based on U.S. design standards.
P-Metric tires have the letter “P”
molded into the sidewall preceding the
size designation. Example:
P215/65R15 95H.
European — Metric tire sizing is
based on European design standards.
Tires designed to this standard have
the tire size molded into the sidewall
beginning with the section width. The
letter "P" is absent from this tire size
designation. Example: 215/
65R15 96H.
LT (Light Truck) — Metric tire sizing
is based on U.S. design standards.
The size designation for LT-Metric tires
is the same as for P-Metric tires except
for the letters “LT” that are molded into
the sidewall preceding the size
designation. Example: LT235/85R16.
Temporary spare tires are designed
for temporary emergency use only.
Temporary high pressure compact
spare tires have the letter “T” or “S”
molded into the sidewall preceding the
size designation. Example:
T145/80D18 103M.
High flotation tire sizing is based on
U.S. design standards and it begins
with the tire diameter molded into the
sidewall. Example: 31x10.5 R15 LT.
Tire Identification Number (TIN)
The TIN may be found on one or both
sides of the tire, however, the date code
mayonlybeononeside.Tireswith
white sidewalls will have the full TIN,
including the date code, located on the
white sidewall side of the tire. Look for
the TIN on the outboard side of black
sidewall tires as mounted on the
vehicle. If the TIN is not found on the
outboard side, then you will find it on
the inboard side of the tire.
