WARNING
170)Changes or repairs to the electrical
system carried out incorrectly and without

(2) For 1.4 Turbo Multiair versions, to guarantee correct operation and prevent serious damage to the engine, it is essential to proceed as follows: only use spark
plugs specifically certified for these engines; all spark plugs should be of the same type and brand (see the "Engine" paragraph in the "Technical specifications"
chapter); stricltly comply with the replacement intervals in the Scheduled Servicing Plan. It is advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership for spark plug replacement.
(3) Areas that are not dusty: recommended maximum mileage 120.000 km. Regardless of the mileage, the belt must be replaced every 6 years. Dusty areas and/or
demanding use (cold climates, town use, long periods of idling): recommended maximum mileage 60.000 km. Regardless of the mileage, the belt must be
replaced every 4 years.
(4) If the vehicle is used in dusty areas, this cleaner must be replaced every 15.000 km.
(5) The brake fluid replacement has to be done every two years, irrespective of the mileage.

216)Do not try to recharge a frozen
battery: it must be thawed first, otherwise it
may explode. If the battery was frozen,
have it inspected by specialized personnel
before recharging to check that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
casing is not cracked, which causes the
risk of leakage of poisonous, corrosive
acid.WHEELS AND TIRES

Before embarking on a long trip, and
approximately every two weeks, check
the tire inflation pressure, including the
spare wheel, if present. Check the tires
when cold.
It is normal for the pressure to increase
when the vehicle is used due to tire
heating; for the correct tire inflation
pressure, see the "Wheels and tire
specifications" paragraph in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
The tires must be replaced when the
tread is less than 1.6 mm thick.
TIRE INFLATION
PRESSURE
220) 221)
NoteAlways check tire pressure when
tires are cold.
Warm tires normally exceed
recommended pressures. Do not
release air from warm tires to adjust the
pressure.
Underinflation can cause reduced
fuel economy, uneven and acceleratedtire wear, and poor sealing of the tire
bead, which will deform the wheel and
cause separation of tire from rim.
Overinflation can produce a harsh
ride, uneven and accelerated tire wear,
and a greater possibility of damage
from road hazards. Keep your tire
pressure at the correct levels. If one
frequently needs inflating, have it
inspected.
REPLACING A TIRE
223) 222)
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
fig. 152 will appear as a solid band
across the tread. Replace the tire when
this happens: 1: new tread/2: worn
tread (3 = tread wear indicator).
You should replace the tire before the
band crosses the entire tread.
After adjusting the tire pressure,

RIMS AND TIRES
233)
51)
NOTE The tires have been optimally
matched with the chassis of your
vehicle. When replacing tires, FCA
recommends that you replace tires of
the same type originally fitted to your
vehicle. For details, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
Check the tire pressure label for tire size
and inflation pressure (refer to “Tire
inflation pressure” paragraph in
“Maintenance and care” chapter). After
adjusting the tire pressure, initialization
of the TPMS system is necessary to
make the system operate normally
(refer to “Tire Pressure Monitoring
System initialization” in “Safety”
chapter).
IMPORTANT If there are any
discrepancies between the Owner
Handbook and the registration
document, take the information from
the latter. For safe driving, the vehicle
must be fitted with tires of the same
make and type on all wheels.
IMPORTANT Do not use tubes with
tubeless tires.
WARNING
233)If winter tyres with a lower speed
rating than that indicated in the
Registration Document are used, do not
exceed the maximum speed
corresponding to the speed rating of the
tyres used.
IMPORTANT
51)Keep your speed down when snow
chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h
(30 mph). Avoid potholes, steps and
pavements and avoid driving for long
distances on roads not covered with snow
to prevent damaging the vehicle and the
road surface.
