JACKING THE
VEHICLE
If the vehicle is to be lifted, go to a Fiat
Dealership which is equipped with the arm
hoist or workshop lift.
Jack up the vehicle only by positioning the
jack arms or the shop jack in the points
shown in the figure.
TOWING THE VEHICLE
The vehicle has two eyes for anchoring the
towing device.
When towing, remember that
without the help of the brake
booster and power steering, a greater
effort is required on the pedal and
steering wheel. Do not use flexible ca-
bles for towing and avoid jerks. During
towing operations make sure that fas-
tening the joint to the vehicle does not
damage the components in contact
with it. When towing the vehicle, you
must comply with the specific traffic
regulations regarding the tow ring and
how to tow on the road.
