CHANGING A WHEEL
JACK
154) 155)
Please note that:
the jack weight is 2.8 kg;
the jack requires no adjustment;
the jack cannot be repaired and in
the event of a fault it must be replaced
by another genuine one;
no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
Maintenance
prevent any dirt from depositing on
the "worm screw";
keep the "worm screw" lubricated;
never modify the jack.
Conditions for non-use
temperatures below −40°C;
on sandy or muddy ground;
on uneven ground;
on steep roads;
in extreme weather conditions:
thunderstorms, typhoons, hurricanes,
blizzards, storms, etc...
in direct contact with the engine or
for repairs under the car;
on boats.
CHANGING PROCEDURE
147) 148) 149) 150) 151) 152) 153)
Proceed as follows:
stop the car in a position that is not
dangerous for oncoming traffic where
you can change the wheel safely. The
ground must be flat and sufficiently
compact;
stop the engine, engage the hazard
warning lights and the electric parking
brake;
engage first gear or reverse or, for
versions with automatic transmission,
move the lever to position P (Park);
wear the reflective safety jacket
(compulsory by law) before getting out
of the car;
open the luggage compartment and
set the adjustable load platform in the
diagonal position (see "Luggage
Compartment" section of the "Getting
to know your car" chapter);

163
170)Do not travel if the windscreen
washer reservoir is empty: using the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility. Repeated operation of
the system without fluid could damage or
cause rapid deterioration of some system
components.
171)Some commercial additives for
windscreen washer fluid are flammable.
The engine compartment contains hot
components which may start a fire.
172)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.
173)The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral-based. Use of mineral
type fluids will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
174)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep open flames away from the
battery and do not use objects that might
create sparks: risk of explosion and fire.
175)Using the battery with insufficient fluid
irreparably damages the battery and may
cause an explosion.
176)When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
IMPORTANT
80)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 vehicle.
81)The oil level must never exceed the
MAX. mark.
82)Always top up using engine oil of the
same specifications as that already in the
engine.
83)PARAFLU
UPprotective anti-freeze is
used in the engine cooling system. Use
fluid of the same type as that contained in
the cooling system for any top-ups.
PARAFLU
UPfluid cannot be mixed with
any other type of fluid. If this happens, do
not start the engine under any
circumstances and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
84)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
85)If the vehicle must remain unused for a
long time at a very low temperature,
remove the battery and take it to a warm
place, to avoid freezing.
86)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 (e.g. anti-theft, radio phone,
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.
IMPORTANT
3)The used engine oil and the filter that has
been replaced contain substances that are
harmful to the environment. To change the
oil and filters, we advise you to contact a
Fiat Dealership.
4)Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to contact a
Fiat Dealership to have the fluid changed.
5)Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. For
