Important
Apply the plate in a highly visible point
of the vehicle, near the mounting pipe or
inside the luggage compartment.
To ensure correct operation of the
system, periodically remove all deposits
of dirt which may have accumulated on
the ball head bar and from the mounting
pipe. The lock must only be treated with
graphite.
Periodically lubricate the joints, the
sliding surfaces and the balls with grease
without resin or oil. Lubrication is also a
further corrosion protection.
if the vehicle is washed with
high-pressure jets, the ball head bar
must be removed and the dedicated plug
fitted. The ball head bar must never be
treated with high-pressure jets.
Two keys are supplied together with the
removable ball tow bar. Note down the
four-digit key number and keep it in a
safe place. This number is to be used for
ordering any duplicate keys that may be
required.
IMPORTANT To install a tow hook
contact a Jeep Dealership.
WARNING
148)The ABS with which the car is
equipped will not control the braking
system of the trailer. Particular caution is
required on slippery roads.
149)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake.
The trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the car’s hydraulic system.

Fuse extracting pliers
To replace a fuse, use the pliers hooked
to the engine compartment fuse box
cover (see fig. 160 ).
Grab the pliers from the upper tabs, as
shown in fig. 161, press them and
extract the pliers pulling upwards.The pliers have two different ends,
specifically designed (see fig. 162 ) to
remove the different types of fuse
present in the vehicle:
A: MINI fuse;B: J-CASE fuse.
FUSE LOCATION
Fuses are grouped together in four
fuseboxes located in the engine
compartment, under the dashboard and
inside the boot.

compartment, ensuring that they are
locked correctly.
IMPORTANT
Should it be absolutely necessary to
operate on the road surface or near it,
pay the utmost attention to vehicles in
transit.
Pay particular attention when using
the key to remove the bolts: it may have
sharp edges.
Raising the vehicle any more than
necessary may lower its stability: the jack
may slip and injure those nearby. Do not
raise the vehicle any more than required
for the removal of the wheel.
Tyres with unidirectional tread can be
recognised by arrows on the side of the
tyre which indicate the direction ofrotation. This must of necessity be
complied with. Only in this way can the
tyres maintain their characteristics in
terms of grip, noise, resistance to wear
and drainage on wet surfaces.
If, after a puncture, it is necessary to
fit such a tyre the wrong way round, it
will be necessary to continue driving with
great care, since the tyre’s performance
is limited in these conditions. This
precaution must be borne in mind above
all when the road surface is wet.
In order to benefit completely from
the unidirectional tread, it is advisable to
restore all wheels to the correct direction
of rotation as soon as possible.
Make sure that the spare wheel is
fitted with the valve facing outwards. The
wheel may be damaged if fitted
incorrectly.
If the vehicle has a hub cap or wheel
cover, do not attempt to fit it on the
spare wheel.
To prevent injury to persons, the
complete tightening of the bolts must
only be carried out when all of the
vehicle’s wheels are on the ground, to
prevent the vehicle falling from the jack.
After having travelled for about
40 km, stop and check that the bolts are
tightened correctly.
WARNING
159)If left in the passenger compartment,
the punctured wheel and jack constitute a
serious risk to the safety of occupants in
the event of accidents or sharp braking.
Therefore, always place both the jack and
punctured wheel in the dedicated housing
in the luggage compartment.
160)It is extremely dangerous to attempt
to change a wheel on the side of the
vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure
that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
161)Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights,
warning triangle, etc. Any passengers on
board should leave the car, especially if it
is heavily laden. Passengers should stay
away from on-coming traffic while the
wheel is being changed. On slopes or on
unsurfaced roads, chock the wheels with
the chocks provided.
