IN AN EMERGENCY
In an emergency we recommend that you call the free-phone number found on the Warranty
Booklet.You can also go to the www.fiat.com website to find your nearest Fiat Dealership.STARTING THE ENGINEContact to a Fiat Dealership immediately if
instrument panel warning light
comes on
constantly.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, the engine may be started using
an auxiliary battery with the same capacity or a
little higher than the flat one.Proceed as follows to start the car:
❒connect the positive terminals (+near the
terminal) of the two batteries with a jump lead
fig. 153;
❒with a second lead, connect the negative terminal
–of the auxiliary battery to an earth point
on
the engine or the gearbox of the car to be started;
❒start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, remove the
leads reversing the order above.
For versions with Start&Stop system, to carry out
the jump starting procedure, refer to the paragraph
“Start&Stop system” in the “Getting to know your
car” section.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start, do
not persist but contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries: sparks could ignite
explosive gas released from the battery. If the
auxiliary battery is installed on another car, prevent
accidental contact between metallic parts of the two
cars.

Never use a fast batter y-charger to star t
the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your car, particularly
the ignition and fuel supply control units.
WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
expert personnel because incorrect
actions could cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. Furthermore, battery
fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid contact
with skin and eyes. Keep naked flames and
lighted cigarettes away from the battery and do
not cause sparks.
BUMP STARTING
Never jump start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake servo and
electrical power steering system are not active until
the engine is started. A much greater effort will
therefore be required to use the brake pedal or turn
the steering wheel.

Kit": see the paragraph “Fix&Go Automatic Kit” for
how to use this device.

the instructions on the following pages for changing
the wheel.

markets where provided) is specific to
your car, do not use it on other models, or use
the space-saver wheel of other models on your
car.The space-saver wheel must only be used
in case of emergency. It must only be used
for the distance necessary to reach a service
point and the car speed must not exceed 80
km/h.The space-saver wheel has an orange
sticker that summarises the main cautions for
use and limitations. Never remove or cover
the label.The following information is provided
in four languages on the label: "Important!
For temporary use only! 80 km/h max! Replace
with a standard tyre as soon as possible. Never
cover this indication." Never apply a hub cap on
a space-saver wheel.
