JUMP STARTING
See “Jump starting” in this chapter. 2)Connect the battery terminals to
the charger.
3)Turn on the charger.
4)When you have finished, turn the
charger off before disconnecting the
battery.
5) Reconnect the cables to the bat-
tery posts. Make sure the polarity is
correct.IF THE BATTERY
IS FLAT
First of all, read the “Car mainte-
nance” chapter for the steps to be tak-
en to avoid the battery running down
and to ensure it has a long life.
RECHARGING THE BATTERY
You are advised to recharge the bat-
tery slowly for a period of approxi-
mately 24 hours at a very low amper-
age. Charging for too long could result
in the battery being damaged.
Proceed as follows:
1) Disconnect the electrical system
terminals from the battery posts.
IMPORTANTIf the car is fitted
with an electronic car alarm, use the
remote control to turn the alarm off
with the remote control and deacti-
vate the system by turning the emer-
gency key to “OFF” (see the “Elec-
tronic alarm” in the “Getting to know
your car” section).
The liquid in the battery is
poisonous and corrosive.
Do not let it touch the skin or eyes.
Recharging the battery should be
done in a well-ventilated area and
away from naked flames or possi-
ble sources of sparks: explosion and
fire risk.
WARNING
Do not attempt to recharge
a frozen battery. Thaw it
first otherwise it could explode. If
the battery froze, make sure the in-
ternal elements are not broken
(short-circuit risk) and that the cas-
ing is not cracked (risk of spilling
the poisonous and corrosive fluid).
WARNING

106
Please note:
– the jack requires no adjustments;
– the jack cannot be repaired. If it
breaks it must be replaced with a new
jack;
– no tool, other than its handle, in-
dicated in this chapter, can be fitted
onto the jack.
IF THE CAR NEEDS
TO BE RAISED
WITH THE JACK
See “If a tyre is punctured”, in this
chapter. Under no circumstances
should a battery charger
be used to start the en-
gine: it could damage the elec-
tronic systems and in particular,
the control units governing igni-
tion and fuel feed.
The jack is used solely for
changing the wheels. It
must not be used for any other pur-
poses, for example lifting other
cars. It must not be used for carry-
ing out repairs under the car.
WARNING
The vehicle may fall if the
jack is not positioned cor-
rectly. Do not use the jack to lift
loads exceeding that indicated on
the jack itself.
WARNING

107
WITH A SHOP JACK
Front end
The car may only be raised by plac-
ing the arm of the jack under the
transaxle. Position a wooden or rub-
ber block between them as shown in
fig. 35.Be very careful that the
arms of the jack do not
force on the bodywork or
the side trim. Adjust the jack
arms correctly and if necessary
insert a wooden or rubber block. WITH AN ARM-TYPE HOIST
The car must be raised by placing the
ends of the arms in the areas illus-
trated in fig. 36.

fig. 37
P5S00709m
fig. 38
P5S10058m
– Remove the small pressure fitted
cover A-fig. 38on the rear bumper.
Should the outfit flat tip screwdriver
be used for this operation, it is nec-
essary to protect the flat tip with a soft
cloth, to avoid possible damage to the
car.
– Fully screw down the tow ring on
the threaded pin.
Before screwing down the
ring accurately clean the
threaded pin. Before starting car
towing, make sure whether the ring
is fully screwed down.
WARNING
Do not start the engine
when towing the car.
WARNING
Before starting to tow,
turn the ignition key to
MAR and back to STOP again
without removing it. Removing the
key automatically engages the
steering lock resulting in the im-
possibility to steer the wheels.
When towing remember thatwith-
out the help of the engine brake
and power steering greater effort
is required on the pedal and steer-
ing wheel. Do not use flexible ca-
bles for towing and avoid jerks.
During towing operations make
sure that fastening the joint to the
car does not damage the compo-
nents in contact with it. When
towing the car, it is compulsory to
follow specific traffic regulations
concerning both the towing device
and behaviour on theroad.

hicles involved.

ter how small they are. Never use wa-
ter.IF ANYONE IS INJURED

alone. The obligation to provide as-
sistance exists even for those not di-
rectly involved in the accident.

jured person.

help is on its way and will arrive soon.
Stay close by to calm him/her down
should they panic.
– Unfasten or cut seat belts holding
injured parties.
– Do not give an injured person any-
thing to drink.
