IN AN EMERGENCY
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.
