2018 FIAT FULLBACK inflation pressure

PERIODIC CHECKS
Before long journeys, check and, if
necessary, restore:
engine coolant level;
brake fluid level;
windscreen washer fluid level;
operation of lighting system
(headlamps, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
tyre inflation pressure and condition;
tyre alignment;
operation of screen washer/wiper
system and positioning/wear of
windscreen/rear window wiper blades.
To ensure that the vehicle is always
efficient and well maintained, it is
advisable to make sure that you carry
out the above operations regularly
(approximately every 1000 km and
every 3000 km for checking and
topping up engine oil is advisable).
DEMANDING
VEHICLE USE
If the vehicle is mostly used in one of
the following conditions:
towing a trailer or caravan;
dusty roads;
short, repeated journeys (less than
7-8 km) at sub-zero outside
temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;
the following checks must be carried
out more often than indicated in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
check front disc brake pad
conditions and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
boot locks, cleanliness and lubrication
of linkage;
visually inspect conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust - fuel system - brakes) and
rubber elements (boots - sleeves -
bushes - etc.);
check battery charge and battery
fluid level (electrolyte);
visually inspect condition of the
accessory drive belts;
check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter;

Check the tyre inflation pressure of all the tyres while they are cold; if insufficient or excessive, adjust to the specified value.
After the tyre inflation pressure has been adjusted, check the tyres for damage and air leaks. Be sure to put caps on the valves.

Snow tyres
406)
223) 224)
The use of snow tyres is recommended
for driving on snow and ice. To preserve
driving stability, mount snow tyres of the
same size and tread pattern on all four
wheels. Snow tyres worn more than 50
% are no longer suitable for use as
snow tyres. The pattern depth shall be
at least 3mm (for markets / versions,
where provided). Snow tyres which do
not meet specifications must not be
used.
NOTE The laws and regulations
concerning snow tyres (driving speed,
required use, type, etc.) vary. Find out
and follow the laws and regulations in
the area you intend to drive.
NOTE If flange nuts are used on your
vehicle, change to tapered nuts when
steel wheels are used.NOTE For markets / versions, where
provided, the identification letters
indicated on the winter tyres provide
information on the permissible speeds
for M&S tyres:
QMS: up to 160 kph
TMS: up to 190 kphThe respective
maximum speed should absolutely be
observed and a signboard to be
introduced into the field of view of the
driver, in case the maximum vehicle
speed indicated in the vehicle
registration a certificate is greater.
Snow traction device
(tyre chains)
If snow traction device (tyre chains)
have to be used, ensure that they are
fitted only on the drive wheels (rear) in
accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
On 4WD vehicles in which the driving
power is distributed preferentially to the
rear wheels, ensure that the snow
traction device (Tyre chains) are fitted
on the rear. Use only snow traction
device (Tyre chains) which are designed
for use with the tyres mounted on the
vehicle: use of the incorrect size or type
of snow traction device (Tyre chains)
could result in damage to the vehicle
body. Contact a Fiat Dealership before
putting on snow traction device (tyre
chains). The max. snow traction device
(tyre chains) height is as follows.

When driving with snow traction device
(tyre chains) on the tyres, do not drive
faster than 50 km/h. When you reach
roads that are not covered in snow,
immediately remove the snow traction
device (tyre chains).
225) 226) 227) 228) 229) 230) 231) 232)
The laws and regulations concerning
the use of snow traction device (tyre
chains) vary. Always follow local laws
and regulations. In most countries, it is
prohibited by the law to use of snow
traction device (tyre chains) on roads
without snow.
WARNING
402)Driving with tyres that are worn,
damaged or improperly inflated can lead to
a loss of control or blow out of the tyres
which can result in a collision with serious
or fatal injury.
403)Remember that the road holding
qualities of your vehicle also depend on the
correct inflation pressure of the tyres.
404)If the pressure is too low, the tyre will
overheat and could be seriously damaged.
