2018 FIAT PANDA wheel

IMPORTANT After the battery is
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on to
indicate this. To carry out this
procedure turn the steering wheel all
the way from one end to the other
or drive in a straight line for about a
hundred metres.
IMPORTANT If the charge level remains
under 50% for a long time, the battery
is damaged by sulphation, reducing
its capacity and efficiency at start-up.
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a
month for about 10 minutes. Before
summer, have the system checked at a
Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
161)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and inflammable
vapours may be present, with the risk of
fire.
162)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine
is hot: you may get burned.163)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.
164)Do not travel with the windscreen
washer fluid reservoir empty: the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility. Some commercial
windscreen washer additives are
flammable. The engine compartment
contains hot components which may set it
on fire.
165)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.
166)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.
167)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep naked flames and sources
of sparks away from the battery: risk of
explosion and fire.
168)Using the battery with insufficient
fluid irreparably damages the battery and
may cause an explosion.
169)If the car will be unused for an
extended period of time in extremely cold
weather conditions, remove the battery
and store it in a heated area to prevent it
from freezing.170)Always wear appropriate goggles
when working on or near the battery.
WARNING
58)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they
are not compatible with each other!
Topping up with an unsuitable fluid could
severely damage your car.
59)The oil level must never exceed the
MAX reference.
60)Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already existing in
the engine.
61)PARAFLU
UPantifreeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use the same fluid
as in the cooling system when topping
up. PARAFLU
UPfluid cannot be mixed
with any other type of fluid. If this occurs,
do not start the engine and contact your
Fiat Dealership immediately.
62)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
63)Incorrect installation of electric and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your car. After purchasing your
vehicle, if you wish to install any
accessories (anti-theft, phone, etc.),
contact a Fiat Dealership, which
will suggest the most appropriate devices
for your vehicle, and will, most importantly,
advise you if a higher capacity battery
needs to be installed.

Rear window washer
The rear window washer jets are fixed.
The nozzle holder is located above
the rear window.
WARNING
171)Driving with worn windscreen/rear
window wiper blades is a serious risk,
because visibility is reduced in bad
weather.
WARNING
64)Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
LIFTING THE
VEHICLE
172)
If the vehicle needs to be raised, go to
a Fiat Dealership which is equipped
with arm lifts and workshop lifts fig.
133.
WARNING
172)Lift the vehicle exclusively by
positioning the jack arms or the workshop
jack in the points illustrated.

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. This
operation is recommended for tyres
with a deep tread pattern, suitable both
for on-road and off-road driving.
Tyre rotation contributes to the
preservation of the grip and traction
performance on wet, muddy or snowy
roads, guaranteeing optimal driveability
of the car.
In the case of irregular wear of the
tyres, the reason must be identified and
corrected before rotating them.
133F1D0135
147

WARNING
173)Do not cross switch the tyres if they
are "unidirectional" type. In this case,
always take care not to fit the tyres with a
direction of rotation that is opposite to that
indicated: you would risk losing grip and
control of the vehicle.
174)Travelling with partially or completely
deflated tyres can cause safety problems
and irremediably damage the tyre.
WARNING
65)The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
66)If tyre pressure is too low, the tyre may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result.
67)Do not switch tyres from the right­hand
side of the vehicle to the left­hand side,
and vice versa.
68)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
BODYWORK
PRESERVING THE
BODYWORK
Paintwork
69)
6)
To wash the car correctly, proceed as
follows:
remove the aerial from the roof to
prevent damage to it if the car is
washed in an automatic system;
if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, keep a
distance of at least 40 cm from the
bodywork to avoid damage or
alteration. It should be remembered
that the build up of water can damage
the car over a period of time;
wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing the sponge;
rinse well with water and dry with a
jet of air or a chamois leather.Dry the less visible parts (e.g. door
frames, bonnet, headlight frames etc.)
with special care, as water may
stagnate more easily in these areas.
The car should not be taken to a closed
area immediately, but left outside so
that residual water can evaporate.
Do not wash the car after it has been
left in the sun or with the bonnet hot:
this may alter the shine of the
paintwork.
Exterior plastic parts must be cleaned
in the same way as the rest of the
vehicle.
Avoid parking under trees; the resin
dropped by trees makes the paintwork
go opaque and increases the possibility
of corrosion.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings should be
washed off immediately and thoroughly
as the acid they contain is particularly
aggressive.
WARNING
69)In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the vehicle.

Alloy or pressed steel rims. Tubeless
radial carcass tyres.
All approved tyres are listed in the
Registration Document.
IMPORTANT If there are any
discrepancies between the Owner
Handbook and the Registration
Document, take the information from
the latter. For safe driving, the car must
be fitted with tyres of the same make
and type on all wheels.
IMPORTANT Do not use inner tubes
with Tubeless tyres.
The M+S tyres provided with the
vehicle (on versions where provided) are
characterised by the 3PMSF (3 Peak
Mountain Snow Flake) marking
.
This marking certifies that the tyre has
passed the specific approval test
required by European Community
Regulation ECE 117, which ensures
better performance on snow than
a "simple" M+S.SNOW CHAINS
180) 181) 182)70)
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.
Using snow chains with tyres with
non-original dimensions may damage
the vehicle.
Using different size or type (M+S, etc.)
tyres between front and rear axle may
adversely affect car driveability, with the
risk of losing control of the car and
resulting accidents.
Snow chains cannot be fitted to the
space-saver wheel (for versions/
markets, where provided). If a front tyre
is punctured, replace a rear wheel
with the space-saver wheel and move
the rear wheel to the front axle. In
this way, with two normal drive wheels
at the front, snow chains can be fitted.
