FIX & GO Automatic QUICK TYRE
REPAIR KIT
The Fix&Go Automatic quick tyre repair kit is located in
the luggage compartment.
The kit fig. 127 includes:
❒a canister A, containing sealant, which is fitted with:
– filler tube B;
– an adhesive label C with the message “max. 80
km/h” to apply in a position clearly visible by the
driver (on the dashboard) after repairing the tyre;
❒informative leaflet (see fig. 128), used to ensure the
correct use of the quick tyre repair kit and then
given to the personnel who will handle the treated
tyre; BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or
driving downhill. This could cause a flow of fuel into the
catalytic converter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake servo and the
power steering system are not activated until the engine
is started; a greater effort will therefore be required to
press the brake pedal or turn the steering wheel.

❒short distances (less than 7-8 km) and with external
temperatures below zero;
❒frequently idling engine or long distance low speed
driving (e. g. taxis or door-to-door deliveries) or in
the case of long term inactivity;
❒in cities;
perform the following inspections more frequently than
shown on the Scheduled Servicing Plan:
❒check front disc brake pad conditions and wear;
❒check cleanliness of bonnet and boot locks and
linkage cleanliness and lubrication;
❒visually inspect the conditions of: engine, gearbox,
transmission, pipes and hoses (exhaust – fuel
– brakes), rubber parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and liquid level (electrolyte);
❒visually inspect condition of accessory drive belts;
❒check pollen filter and replace it, if required;
❒check air filter and replace, if required.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and, if
necessary, top up the following:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressure and conditions;
❒operation of lighting system (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard lights, etc.);
❒operation of the windscreen wiper/washer system,

RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel rubber hoses are
concerned, follow the “Scheduled Servicing Programme”
in this chapter carefully.
Ozone, high temperatures and prolonged lack of fluid in
the system may cause hardening and cracking of the
hoses, with possible leaks.
Careful inspections are therefore necessary.

WINDSCREEN WIPER
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using special products;
TUTELA PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or
worn. In any case, it is advisable to replace them
approximately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility of
damage to the blades:
❒make sure that the rubber part is not stuck to the
windscreen at sub-zero temperatures. Use a de-icing
product to release it if required;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in addition to
protecting the blades, this prevents effort from the
motor and overheating;
❒do not operate the windscreen wipers on dry glass.
Driving with worn wiper blades is a
serious hazard, because visibility is
reduced in bad weather.
