WARNING
143)Modifications or repairs to the electric
system that are not carried out properly
or do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
144)Halogen bulbs contain pressurised
gas, in the case of breakage they may
burst causing glass fragments to be
projected outwards.
145)Only replace the light bulbs when the
engine is off and in a position that does
not interfere with traffic and lets you safely
replace them (see the description in the
“Replacement” paragraph). Also ensure
that the engine is cold, to prevent the risk
of burns.
146)Before replacing the bulb, wait for the
exhaust ducts to cool down: DANGER
OF SCALDING!147)Due to the high power supply voltage,
gas discharge bulbs (Xenon) should only
be replaced by specialised personnel:
danger of death! Contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
49)Halogen bulbs must be handled
holding the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan
of the bulb. In the event of accidental
contact, wipe the bulb with a cloth
moistened with alcohol and let the bulb
dry.
50)Where possible, it is advisable to have
bulbs changed at a Fiat Dealership. The
correct operation and direction of the
external lights are absolutely essential for
the safety of the car and of compliance
with the law.
51)The intervention must be carried out
taking all precautions necessary to avoid
damaging the bodywork (please use a
sufficiently rigid and appropriately thick
plastic card).

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.

REPAIR PROCEDURE
Proceed as follows:
stop the car in a position that is not
dangerous for oncoming traffic where
you can carry out the procedure safely.
The ground must be flat and sufficiently
compact;
stop the engine, engage the hazard
warning lights and the parking brake;
wear the reflective safety jacket
before getting out of the car (anyway
comply with the laws in force in the
country you are driving in);
Insert the cartridge 1 containing the
sealant in the proper compartment of
the compressor 2, pressing it down
hard fig. 121. Remove the speed limit
sticker 3 and apply it in a clearly visible
position fig. 122;
wear the gloves;
remove the cap from the tyre valve
and connect and firmly tighten the
transparent tube of the sealing fluid 4
fig. 121. If a 250 ml cartridge is present
the housing of the transparent tube is
provided with removable ring to
facilitate extraction. Make sure that the
ON-OFF button 5 fig. 123 is in the off
position (button not pressed);
plug the electric connector 3 fig. 124
into the 12V socket of the vehicle and
start the vehicle engine;
operate the compressor by pressing
the ON-OFF button 5 fig. 123. When
the pressure shown in the "Wheels"
paragraph in the “Technical data”
chapter or on the specific label appears
on the pressure gauge 7, stop the
compressor by pressing the ON-OFF
button 5 again;
disconnect the cartridge 1 from the
compressor, by pressing the release
button 8 and lifting the cartridge 1
upwards fig. 125.
