operate the compressor by pressing
the ON-OFF button E fig. 133. When
the pressure shown in the Owner
Handbook or on the specific label
appears on the pressure gauge G, stop
the compressor by pressing the
ON-OFF button E again;
disconnect the cartridge A from the
compressor, by pressing the release
button H and lifting the cartridge A
upwards fig. 135.If the pressure gauge G fig. 133
indicates a pressure lower than 1.8 bar
/ 26 psi 15 minutes after starting the
compressor, switch off the compressor,
disconnect the sealing fluid tube D
from the tyre valve and remove the
cartridge A from the compressor fig.
135.
Move the vehicle by approximately 10
m to promote the distribution of
sealant; stop the vehicle safely, operate
the handbrake and restore pressure
using the black inflation pipe L fig. 136
to reach the required pressure. If also
in this case, the pressure is lower
than 1.8 bar / 26 psi 15 minutes after
turning on, do not resume driving
but contact a Fiat Dealership.After driving for about 8 km / 5 miles,
position the vehicle in a safe and
suitable area and engage the
handbrake. Take the compressor and
restore pressure using the black
inflation tube L fig. 136.
If the pressure shown is higher than 1.8
bar / 26 psi, restore the pressure and
drive safely to a Fiat Dealership as soon
as possible. If, however, the pressure
is lower than 1.8 bar / 26 psi, do not
resume driving but contact a Fiat
Dealership.
INFLATION PROCEDURE
Proceed as follows:
stop the vehicle safely, as shown
above, and operate the handbrake;
extract the black inflation tube L fig.
136 and screw it firmly onto the tyre
valve. Follow the instructions shown in
fig. 134 and fig. 136.
Press the air release button M fig. 133
to adjust any tyre overpressure.
CARTRIDGE
REPLACEMENT
Proceed as follows:
only use original Fix&Go cartridges,
which can be purchased from the
Fiat Dealership.
to remove the cartridge A fig. 131
press the release button H fig. 135 and
lift it.

IN AN EMERGENCY
Page 148 of 196

with Start&Stop system: fig. 172
(for versions/markets, where provided)
disconnect the quick release
negative terminal A from the dummy
negative terminal B; this is because
a battery status monitoring sensor IBS
D is fitted on the negative battery
terminal C and should never be
disconnected except for when the
battery is actually replaced;
connect the positive cable of the
charger to the positive pole E of the
battery and the negative cable to the
dummy negative terminal B;
turn on the battery charger;
when you have recharged, turn the
charger off before disconnecting it from
the battery;
after disconnecting the charger,
reconnect the negative quick release
negative terminal A from the dummy
pole B.with Start&Stop (RADSOK) system:
fig. 173
(for versions/markets, where provided)
disconnect the connector A (by
pressing button B) from IBS sensor C
for monitoring the status of the battery
installed on the negative pole D of
the battery itself;
connect the positive cable to the
positive battery terminal E and the
negative terminal to the IBS sensor F as
shown in fig. 173;
turn on the battery charger;
switch the charger off after
recharging;
after having disconnected the
charger, reconnect connector A to IBS
sensor C as shown in fig. 173.
IMPORTANT The cables of the
electrical system must be correctly
reconnected to the battery, i.e. the
positive cable (+) to the positiveterminal and the negative cable (–) to
the negative terminal. The battery
terminals are marked with the positive
(+) and negative (–) symbols, and are
shown on the battery cover. The battery
terminals must also be corrosion-free
and firmly secured to the terminals. If a
"quick-type" battery charger is used
with the battery fitted on the car,
disconnect both battery leads before
connecting it. Do not use a "quick-type"
battery charger to provide the starting
voltage.

WARNING
144)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with your skin and
eyes. The battery should be charged in a
well ventilated place, away from naked
flames or possible sources of sparks:
danger of explosion and fire.
145)Do not attempt to charge a frozen
battery: it must be thawed first, otherwise it
may explode. If freezing has occurred, the
battery should be checked by skilled
personnel to make sure that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
body is not cracked, with the risk of leaking
poisonous and corrosive acid.

SERVICING AND CARE
Page 181 of 196

Each time the button is pressed the
following bands are selected cyclically:
Pressing the FM AS button: “FM1”,
“FM2” or “FMA”;
Pressing the AM button: “MW1”,
“MW2”.
Each band is highlighted by the name
in the display. The last station selected
on the respective frequency band will
be tuned into.
PRESET BUTTONS
The buttons numbered from 1 to 6 are
used to set the following preset
stations:
18 in the AM band; 6 in FM1, 6 in
FM2, 6 in FMT or "FMA" (on some
versions);
12 in the MW band.
To listen to a preset station, select the
desired frequency band and then briefly
press the corresponding preset button
(from 1 to 6).
By pressing the preset button for more
than 2 seconds, the tuned station will
be stored. The storing phase is
confirmed by an acoustic signal.
AUTOMATIC TUNING
Briefly press the
orbutton to start
the automatic tuning search for the
next station that can be received in the
selected direction.If the button
orpressed down
longer, the fast search starts. When the
button is released, the tuner will stop
on the next station that can be
received.
If the TA function (traffic news) is on, the
tuner searches only for stations that
broadcast traffic news.
MANUAL TUNING
This is used to manually search for
stations in the preselected band. Select
the desired frequency band and then
press the
orbutton briefly and
repeatedly to start to the search in the
desired direction. If the
orbutton
is pressed longer, the fast search will
start and then stop when the button is
released.
AUTOSTORE FUNCTION (automatic
station storage)
To activate the Autostore function, hold
the FM AS button pressed until a beep
is heard. With this function, the radio
automatically stores the 6 stations with
the strongest signal in decreasing
order on the FMA frequency band.
During the automatic storing process,
the text “Autostore” flashes on the
display.Press the FM AS button again to stop
the Autostore function: the radio will
again tune into the station listened
to before the activation of the function.
When the Autostore scan is concluded,
the radio will automatically tune into
the first preset station on the FMA band
(preset 1).
The stations that have a strong signal at
that moment are then automatically
stored in the preselected band in the
buttons numbered 1 to 6.
When the Autostore function is
activated within the MW band, the FMA
band is automatically selected and the
function is performed.
IMPORTANT Sometimes the Autostore
function is not able to find 6 stations
with a strong signal. In this case, the
strongest stations stored will be
duplicated in the free preset buttons.
IMPORTANT When the Autostore
function is activated, the stations that
were previously stored in the FMA band
are deleted.
