SERVICING AND CARE
Correct servicing permits the
performance of the vehicle to be
maintained over time, as well as limited
running costs and safeguarding the
efficiency of the safety systems.

70)Always require the use of only
compressor coolants and lubricants
approved and suitable for the specific air
conditioning system fitted on the vehicle.
Some non-approved coolants are
flammable and may explode, with the risk
of injuries. The use of non-approved
coolants or lubricants may adversely affect
system efficiency, leading to expensive
repairs.
71)The air conditioner system contains
coolant under high pressure: to avoid
injuries to people or damage to the system,
any coolant addition or repair that requires
to disconnect the cables must be carried
out by a Fiat Dealership.
72)Vehicles equipped with catalytic
converter must be fuelled only with
unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol would
permanently damage the catalytic
converter and eliminate its ability to reduce
polluting emissions, seriously
compromising the engine performance,
which would be irreparably damaged. If the
engine does not work correctly, especially if
it starts irregularly or if there is a reduction
of its performance, immediately go to a Fiat
Dealership. Prolonged and faulty operation
of the engine may cause overheating of the
converter and, as a consequence, possible
damage to the converter and the vehicle.
73)Using a gearbox fluid different from that
approved may compromise gearshifting
quality and/or cause vibration of the
gearbox itself.LIFTING THE
VEHICLE
If 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 panels with the
symbols
(see illustration in fig. 171 ).

RIMS AND TYRES
For the type of wheel rims and tyres
fitted on the vehicle see the "Wheels"
paragraph in the "Technical data"
chapter.
SNOW CHAINS
74)
205/55 R16 and 195/65 R15 tyres can
be fitted with 9 mm snow chains.
Important notes
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.
IMPORTANT Using snow chains with
tyres with non-original dimensions may
damage the vehicle.

SERVICING AND CARE

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
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 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
163)The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
164)If tyre pressure is too low, it may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result.
165)If the tyres are "unidirectional", do not
switch tyres from the right-hand side of the
vehicle to the left-hand 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.
166)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
167)Travelling with partially or completely
deflated tyres can cause safety problems
and damage the concerned tyre beyond
repair.
IMPORTANT
74)Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h.
Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or
sidewalks and do not drive long distances
over roads without snow, to avoid
damaging both your vehicle and the road
surface.
BODY
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paint
75)
5)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Maintenance of paintwork consists of
washing the car: the frequency
depends on the conditions and
environment where the car 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.
76)
To correctly wash the vehicle, follow
these instructions:
if the vehicle is washed remove the
aerial from the roof;

WARNING
172)The maximum speed for snow tyres marked “Q” is 160 km/h, while it is 190 km/h for “T” tyres and 210 km/h for "H" tyres. The highway
code speed limits must however always be complied with.
173)DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when using integral hub caps fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and after sale tyres provided with Rim
Protector. Use of unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.
174)If winter tyres with a lower speed rating than that indicated in the Registration Document are used, do not exceed the maximum speed
corresponding to the speed rating of the tyres used.
175)A 16” spare wheel is provided with 17" tyres. This spare wheel must be used only in an emergency. Never use it for more than strictly
necessary and never exceed 80 km/h. On the wheel there is an orange sticker, summarising the main warnings regarding wheel usage
restrictions. Never remove or cover the label. The label contains the following indications in four languages: "Warning! For temporary use only!
80 km/h max! Replace with standard wheel as soon as possible. Never cover this indication." Never apply a wheel cap on the wheel. The
driving characteristics of the car will be modified with the wheel fitted. Avoid violent acceleration and braking, abrupt steering and fast
cornering. Have the wheel repaired and refitted as soon as possible. Using two or more spare wheels at the same time is forbidden. Do not
apply grease to the bolt threads before fitting: they could come unscrewed.
