2019 FIAT 500 change wheel

place the inner part of the hub cap
on the wheel rim;
engage the hub cap by applying an
axial force in several points as shown
in fig. 120 to allow the correct coupling
between hub cap and wheel.
Versions with alloy rims
Proceed as follows:
insert the wheel on the hub and use
the spanner provided to tighten the
bolts;
lower the vehicle and remove the
jack;
use the wrench provided to fully
tighten the bolts in an alternating
sequence;
reinsert the press-fitted hub cap,
making sure that the reference hole on
the wheel is aligned with the reference
pin on the cap.IMPORTANT If it is not fitted correctly,
the hub cap may detach when the
vehicle is running.
WARNING
154)The space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets where provided) is
specific to your car, do not use it on other
models, or use the space-saver wheel
of other models on your car. The
space-saver wheel must only be used in
the event of an emergency. Never use it for
more than strictly necessary and never
exceed 80 km/h.
155)On the space-saver wheel there is an
orange label, summarising the main
warnings regarding space-saver 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 a space-saver
wheel.
156)If you change the type of wheel (alloy
rims instead of steel rims and vice versa)
you will have to change the entire set
of fastening bolts with another set of
suitably sized bolts.157)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 hills or uneven
roads, use chocks or appropriate objects
to block the wheels of the vehicle.
158)The driving features of the car may
change when a space-saver wheel is fitted.
Avoid violent acceleration and braking,
abrupt steering and fast cornering. The
total life of a space-saver wheel is
approximately 3,000 km, after which it
must be replaced by another wheel of the
same type. Never install a traditional tyre
on a rim designed to be used as a
space-saver wheel. Have the wheel
repaired and refitted as soon as possible.
Using two or more space-saver wheels
at the same time is forbidden. Do not apply
grease to the bolt threads before fitting:
they could come unscrewed.

IN AN EMERGENCY

159)The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. Any other
use, e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or
different things, is strictly prohibited. Never
use it to carry out maintenance or repairs
under the vehicle or to change summer/
winter wheels and vice versa. Never go
under the raised vehicle. If any work under
the vehicle is necessary, contact the Fiat
Service Network. Incorrect placing of
the jack can cause the vehicle to drop: use
it only in the positions indicated. Do not
use the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. Never start the engine
with vehicle raised. If the vehicle is raised
more than necessary, everything can
become more unstable, with the risk of the
vehicle dropping violently. Thus, lift the
vehicle only as needed in order to access
the spare tyre.
160)Snow chains cannot be fitted to the
space-saver wheel. So, if a front (drive)
wheel is punctured and chains are needed,
a rear wheel should be fitted to the front
of the car and the space-saver wheel
should be fitted to the rear. In this way,
equipped with two normal drive wheels at
the front, they can be fitted with snow
chains, thus resolving the emergency
situation.
161)If the hub cap is not fitted correctly, it
may come off when the car is travelling.
Never tamper with the inflation valve. Never
introduce tools of any kind between rim
and tyre. Check tyre and space-saver
wheel pressures regularly, complying with
the values given in the "Technical
specifications" chapter.162)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.
163)Be very careful when removing/
refitting the hub cap due to the proximity of
the brake disc. We recommend using
heat protection gloves.
WARNING
53)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: do not
touch them. If you come into contact
with lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.
54)Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the correct tightening
of the wheel bolts checked.

WARNING
64)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, etc.), go to a Fiat
Dealership, which will suggest the most
suitable devices and advise you whether a
higher capacity battery needs to be
installed.
WARNING
5)Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. It is
advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership
for battery replacement.
BRAKES
Depending on the version/market, the
vehicle may be equipped with
mechanical wear detectors for the
brake pads: one for each wheel
assembly.
When the brake linings are close to
wearing out, pressing the brake pedal
will generate a slight squeal: this lasts
for about 100 km (the mileage varies
with the driving style and route).
In this case, it is still possible to
continue driving, with caution.
However, contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible to have the worn
brake pads changed.

SERVICING AND CARE

SNOW TYRES
200)
Use snow tyres of the same size as the
standard tyres provided with the car.
All four tyres should be the same (brand
and track) to ensure greater safety
when driving and braking as well as a
good manoeuvrability.
Remember that you should not change
the rotation direction of the tyres.
The Fiat Dealership will be happy to
provide advice concerning the most
suitable type of tyre for the customer's
requirements.
The winter performance of these tyres
is considerably reduced when the tread
thickness is less than 4 mm. Replace
them in this case.
Due to the specific characteristics of
snow tyres, in normal weather
conditions or on long motorway
journeys, the performance of these
tyres is lower than that of standard
tyres. Their usage should therefore be
restricted in accordance with their
type approval.IMPORTANT When using snow tyres
with a maximum speed index below the
one that can be reached by the car
(increased by 5%), place a notice in the
passenger compartment, plainly in
view, which states the maximum speed
allowed by the snow tyres (as per EC
Directive). All four tyres should be
the same (brand and track) to ensure
greater safety when driving and braking
as well as a good manoeuvrability.
Remember that you should not change
the rotation direction of the tyres.
SNOW CHAINS
67) 68) 69)
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.
Snow chains can be fitted to the tyres
of the front wheels (drive wheels) only.
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, snow,
etc.) tyres between front and rear axle
may adversely affect car driveability,
with the risk of losing control of the car
and resulting accidents.
IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be
fitted to the space-saver wheel. 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.WARNING
193)The space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets where provided) is
specific to your car, do not use it on other
models, or use the space-saver wheel
of other models on your car. The
space-saver wheel must only be used in
the event of an emergency. Never use it for
more than strictly necessary and never
exceed a speed of 80 km/h.
194)Snow chains cannot be fitted to the
space-saver wheel. So, if a front (drive)
wheel is punctured and chains are needed,
a rear wheel should be fitted to the front
of the car and the space-saver wheel
should be fitted to the rear. In this way,
equipped with two normal drive wheels at
the front, they can be fitted with snow
chains, thus resolving the emergency
situation
