INSTALLATION OF ACCESSORIES
Before fitting any accessories, please consult your authorised Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnosis connector for checking and servicing the electronic control system. Do
not connect a device other than a diagnosis tool for inspections and service to this connector. Otherwise, the battery could be
discharged, the electronic devices of the vehicle could malfunction, or other unexpected problems could result. In addition,
malfunctions caused by connecting a device other than a diagnosis tool may not be covered under warranty.
The installation of accessories, optional parts, etc., should only be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in your country,
and in accordance with the guidelines and warnings contained within the documents accompanying this vehicle. Only FCA Italy
S.p.A. approved accessories should be fitted to your vehicle.
Improper installation of electrical parts could cause fire, please refer to the Modification/ alteration to the electrical or fuel
systems section within this owner’s manual.
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle without an external antenna may cause electrical system interference,
which could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifications must not be used. Refer to the “Specifications” section for information
regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
Do not fail to read the accessories manuals prior to the installation of accessories, parts or other modifications to the vehicle!
IMPORTANT POINTS!
Due to a large number of accessories and replacement parts of different manufactures available in the market, it is not possible,
not only for FCA Italy S.p.A. but also an authorised Fiat Dealership, to check whether the attachment or installation of such
parts affects the overall safety of your vehicle.
Even when such parts are officially authorised, for example by a “general operators permit” (an appraisal for the part) or through
the execution of the part in an officially approved manner of construction, or when a single operation permit following the
attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehicles has not
been affected.
Consider also that there basically exists no liability on the part of the appraiser or the official. Maximum safety can only be
ensured with parts recommended, sold and fitted or installed by an authorised Fiat Dealership (replacement with original FCA
Italy S.p.A. spare parts). The same also pertains to modifications of vehicles with respect to the production specifications. For
safety reasons, do not attempt any modifications other than those that follow the recommendations of an authorised Fiat
Dealership.
