75)The sealant is effective with external
temperatures of between -40°C and
+55°C. The sealant has an expiry date. It is
possible to repair tyres which have been
damaged on tread up to a diameter of
6 mm. Show the cartridge and the label to

EMERGENCY
STARTING
76)
If the battery is flat, a jump starting can
be performed using the battery and the
cables of another vehicle, or using an
auxiliary battery. In all cases, the battery
used must have a capacity equal to or
a little higher than the flat one.
IMPORTANT
Do not use an auxiliary battery or any
other source of external supply with a
voltage above 12 V: the battery, the
starter, the alternator and the electrical
system of the vehicle could be
damaged.
Do not attempt jump starting if the
battery is frozen. The battery could
break and explode!
JUMP STARTING
The car battery is located in the engine
compartment, behind the left light
cluster.

operate the parking brake, move the
lever to P (Park), for versions equipped
with automatic transmission, or neutral,
for versions with manual gearbox, then
set the ignition device to STOP;
switch off all the other electrical
devices in the car;
should you be using the battery of
another car, park the other car within
the range of the cables used for the
connection, operate the parking brake
and ensure that its ignition is off.
IMPORTANT If the procedure below is
carried out incorrectly, it can cause
severe injury to people or damage the
recharging system of one or both
vehicles. Carefully follow the
instructions given below.
Cable connection

Proceed as follows to carry out a jump
starting fig. 151:
connect one end of the cable used
for positive (+) to the positive terminal
(+) of the car with flat battery;
connect the other end of the cable
used for positive (+) to the positive
terminal (+) of the auxiliary battery;
connect one end of the cable used
for negative (–) to the negative terminal
(–) of the auxiliary battery;
