❒hold thebutton down again to go
back to the standard screen or to the
main menu according to where you are
in the menu.
Once the "Reset" procedure has been
performed, the display shows a
message indicating that the "self-
learning" procedure has started.
Working conditionsThe system is active for speeds above
15 km/h. In a few situations such as
sporty driving, particular conditions of
the road surface (e.g. icy, snowy,
unsurfaced roads) the signalling may be
delayed, or be partial in the detection
if more tyres are flat simultaneously.
Under special conditions (e.g. vehicle
loaded asymmetrically on one side,
towing a trailer, damaged or worn tyre,
fitting the space-saver wheel, use of the
"Fix&Go Automatic" kit, fitting snow
chains, fitting different tyres on the
axles) the system may give false
indications or be temporarily
deactivated.If the system is temporarily deactivated
the
warning light flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display shows
a dedicated message. This indication
is displayed also after the engine has
been switched off and then on again if
the correct operating conditions are not
restored.
WARNING
64)The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests with
the driver, who must take into account
the traffic conditions in order to drive
in complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle
in front.
65)If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
66)The laser beam is not visible at the
naked eye. Do not look directly, or with
optical instruments (e.g. lenses), at the
laser beam from a distance lower than 10
cm: this may cause damage to the sight.
The laser beam is also present when
the key is at MAR but its operation is off,
not available or manually deactivated
with the display Setup Menu.67)The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. Small sized
vehicles (e.g. bicycles or motorbikes)
or people, animals and things (e.g.
pushchairs) and more in general all those
obstacles with a low reflection of the light
emitted by the laser (e.g. vehicles soiled
with mud) are not taken into consideration.
68)If the car must be placed on a roller
bench (at a speed within 5 and 30 km/h)
for maintenance interventions or if it is
washed in an automatic roller washing
tunnel with an obstacle in the front part
(e.g. another car, a wall or another
obstacle), the system may detect its
presence and activate. In this case the
system must be deactivated through the
display Setup Menu.
WARNING
36)The laser sensor may have limited or
absent operation due to weather
conditions such as: heavy rain, hail, thick
fog, heavy snow, formation of ice layers on
the windscreen.

127)If the pressure has fallen below 1.8
bar, do not drive any further: the Fix&Go
Automatic kit cannot guarantee proper
hold because the tyre is too damaged.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
128)You must always indicate that the tyre
was repaired using the Fix&Go Automatic
kit. Give the booklet to the technicians who
will be handling the tyre that was treated
using the Fix&Go Automatic kit.
129)Repairs are not possible in the case of
damage to the wheel rim (bad groove
distortion causing air loss). Do not remove
foreign bodies (screws or nails) from the
tyre.
130)Never operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk
of overheating. The Fix&Go Automatic kit is
not suitable for definitive repairs, so the
repaired tyres may only be used
temporarily.
131)The information required by current
regulations, regarding the chemical
substances for the protection of human
health and the environment and on the safe
use of the sealing fluid, are on the
packaging label. Compliance with the
indications on the label is an essential
condition to ensure the safety and
the effectiveness of the product.
Remember to carefully read the label
before use; the user of the product
is responsible for any damages caused by
improper use. The sealing fluid has an
expiry date. Replace the bottle if the
sealant has expired.
WARNING
64)In the event of a puncture caused by
foreign bodies, the kit may be used to
repair tyres showing damage on the tread
or shoulder up to max. 4 mm diameter.
WARNING
3)Dispose of the bottle and the sealant
properly. Dispose of the components
in compliance with national and local
regulations.
