140)A 16” spare wheel is provided with
17” and 18” tyres. This spare wheel must
be used only in an emergency. Never use it
for more than strictly necessary and never
exceed 80 km/h. On the wheel there is an
orange sticker, summarising the main
warnings regarding wheel usage
restrictions. Never remove or cover the
label. The label contains the following
indications in four languages: "Warning! For
temporary use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
with standard wheel as soon as possible.
Never cover this indication." Never apply a
wheel cap on the wheel. The driving
characteristics of the car will be modified
with the wheel fitted. Avoid violent
acceleration and braking, abrupt steering
and fast cornering. Have the wheel
repaired and refitted as soon as possible.
Using two or more spare wheels at the
same time is forbidden. Do not apply
grease to the bolt threads before fitting:
they could come unscrewed.
IMPORTANT
52)When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw" and
joints) can also cause injuries: avoid
touching them. If you come into contact
with lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.
53)Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the correct tightening of
the wheel bolts checked.

149)The brake servo and the
electromechanical power steering will not
work while the vehicle is being towed. You
will therefore need to apply more force on
the brake pedal and steering wheel. Do not
use flexible ropes when towing, and avoid
jerky movements. During towing, make
sure that the trailer hitch does not damage
any components it is touching. When
towing the car, you must comply with all
specific traffic regulations and adopt an
appropriate driving behaviour. Do not start
the engine while towing the car. Before
tightening the ring, clean the threaded
housing thoroughly. Make sure that the ring
is fully screwed into the housing before
towing the car.
150)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for short
distances using an appropriate device in
accordance with the highway code (a rigid
bar), to move the vehicle on the road in
readiness for towing or transport via a
breakdown vehicle. Tow hooks MUST NOT
be used to tow vehicles off the road or
where there are obstacles and/or for
towing operations using cables or other
non-rigid devices. In compliance with the
above conditions, towing must take place
with the two vehicles (one towing, the other
towed) aligned as much as possible along
the same centre line.
