WARNING
64)Incorrect installation of electric and
electronic devices may cause severe
damage to your car. After purchasing your
vehicle, if you wish to install any
accessories (anti-theft, etc.), go to a Fiat
Dealership, which will suggest the most
suitable devices and advise you whether a
higher capacity battery needs to be
installed.
WARNING
5)Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. It is
advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership
for battery replacement.
BRAKES
Depending on the version/market, the
vehicle may be equipped with
mechanical wear detectors for the
brake pads: one for each wheel
assembly.
When the brake linings are close to
wearing out, pressing the brake pedal
will generate a slight squeal: this lasts
for about 100 km (the mileage varies
with the driving style and route).
In this case, it is still possible to
continue driving, with caution.
However, contact a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible to have the worn
brake pads changed.
