IN AN EMERGENCY

In the absence of the tool box the
vehicle front tow hook is housed in the
on-board documentation container,
together with the Owner Handbook.
To use it, proceed as follows:
Open the flap A and remove it as
shown fig. 203;
turn the lock knob B fig. 203
anticlockwise and remove it to allow the
compartment fig. 204 to be removed;
take the screwdriver provided from
the box and prise up at the point
shown to raise the cap C fig. 206;
take the tow ring D from the box and
screw onto the threaded pin fig. 206.
The rear ring B fig. 207 is located at the
point shown in the figure.
VERSIONS WITH COMFORT-MATIC
TRANSMISSION
Make sure that the gearbox is in neutral
(N) (checking that the vehicle moves
when pushed) and proceed in the same
way as for towing a normal vehicle
with a manual transmission.
If the gearbox cannot be put in neutral,
do not tow the vehicle and contact a
Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
176)Screw on the tow ring and check that
it stops at the end of travel position.
177)Before towing, switch off the steering
lock (see "Starting device" paragraph
under the "Dashboard and controls"
section).
178)The power brakes and power steering
will not operate while the vehicle is being
towed. More effort on the brake pedal and
steering wheel will therefore be required.
179)Do not use flexible cables when
towing and avoid jerky movements. During
towing operations, make sure that the
fastened joint does not damage adjoining
components.
180)When towing the vehicle, it is
necessary to obey specific road regulations
which relate both to the towing device as
well as to the behaviour to adopt on the
road.
181)Do not start the engine whilst the
vehicle is being towed.
182)Towing must be made exclusively on
roads/streets; the device must not be used
to recover the vehicle if it got off the road.
183)Towing must not be made for getting
past significant obstacles on the road
(e.g. heaps of snow or material on the road
surface).

IMPORTANT Brake fluid absorbs
moisture. For this reason, if the vehicle
is mainly used in areas with a high
degree of atmospheric humidity, the
fluid should be replaced at more
frequent intervals than specified in the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
COMFORT-MATIC
GEARBOX HYDRAULIC
SYSTEM FLUID
To check the gearbox oil level and to
change the clutch hydraulic fluid, go to
a Fiat Dealership.
194)
WARNING
185)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: inflammable gases
and vapours may be present, constituting
a fire risk.
186)Be very careful working in the engine
compartment when the engine is hot:
you may get burned. Remember that the
fan may start up if the engine is hot: this
could injure you. Scarves, ties and other
loose clothing might be pulled by moving
parts.
187)The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the plug with
another original or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do not
remove the reservoir plug when the engine
is hot: you risk scalding yourself.188)Prevent power steering fluid from
coming into contact with hot engine parts:
it is flammable.
189)Do not travel with the windscreen
washer fluid reservoir empty: the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility.
190)Some commercial windscreen washer
additives are flammable. The engine
compartment contains hot parts which
could start a fire if they come into contact.
191)Do not release the cap from the
extension without previously extracting the
system using the ring.
192)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.
193)The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral­based. Use of mineral
type fluids will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
194)Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to have the oil
changed by a Fiat Dealership where it
will be disposed of respecting the
environment and according to legal
requirements.
WARNING
50)When topping up, take care not to mix
up the various types of fluids: they are
not compatible with each other and could
seriously damage the vehicle.
51)Used engine oil and replaced oil filters
contain substances which are harmful to
the environment. To change oil and filters,
we advise you to contact a Fiat Dealership.
52)PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze fluid is used
in the cooling system. Use fluid of the
same type as that contained in the cooling
system for any top-ups. PARAFLU
UP
fluid cannot be mixed with any other type
of fluid. If this occurs, do not start the
engine and contact your Fiat Dealership
immediately.
53)Do not press on the power steering
end of travel with engine on for more than
8 consecutive seconds, since noise is
produced and there is a risk of system
damages.
54)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
WARNING
4)Power steering fluid consumption is
extremely low; if another top-up is required
after only a short period of time, have the
system checked for leaks at a Fiat
Dealership.
