USING THE
GEARBOX
To engage the gears, depress the
clutch pedal fully and shift the gear
lever A-fig. 127 into the required
position (the diagram is shown on
the gear knob fig. 139).
IMPORTANT Reverse may only be
engaged when the vehicle is at a
standstill. With the engine running,
wait for at least 2 seconds with
the clutch pedal fully pressed before
engaging reverse to prevent
damage to the gears and grating.
To engage reverse R from neutral, lift
ring B under the knob and at the
same time move the gear lever
to the right and then backwards (as
shown in the diagram).

WARNING
80) Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. Therefore,
the floor area underneath the
pedal unit must not be obstructed
in any way. Ensure that the floor
mat is always laid flat and does
not interfere with use of the
pedals.
IMPORTANT
21) Do not drive with your hand
resting on the gear lever as the
force exerted, even if slight, could
lead over time to premature wear
of the internal gearbox
components. The clutch pedal
should be used only for gear
changes. Do not drive with your
foot resting on the clutch pedal,
however lightly. For versions/
markets where provided, the
electronic clutch control could cut
in by interpreting the incorrect
driving style as a fault.

84) For vehicles with robotised
gearbox, in the event of automatic
engine stopping with the vehicle
on a slope, the engine should
be restarted by moving the gear
lever towards (+) or (–) without
releasing the brake pedal. For
vehicles with robotised gearbox
and Hill Holder function, in the
event of automatic engine
stopping with the vehicle on a
slope, the engine must be
restarted by moving the gear lever
towards (+) or (–) without
releasing the brake pedal, so that
the Hill Holder function, active
only with the engine running,
becomes available.
85) If climate comfort is to be
favoured, the Start&Stop system
can be disabled, for a continuous
operation of the climate control
system.TPMS (Tyre
Pressure
Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
86) 87) 88) 89) 90) 91) 92) 93) 94)
DESCRIPTION
The tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) warns the driver of low tyre
pressure on the basis of the cold
inflation pressure prescribed for the
vehicle.
Changes in outside temperature
may cause tyre pressure to vary.
This means that a decrease in the
outside temperature corresponds to
a decrease in the tyre pressure.
Tyre pressure must always be
adjusted according to the cold
inflation pressure. Cold tyre inflation
pressure is the tyre pressure after
letting the vehicle stand for at least
three hours or a travel shorter than
1.6 km after an interval of three
hours.
The cold tyre inflation pressure must
not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure value printed on the side of
the tyre.The tyre pressure also increases
while driving the vehicle: this is
a normal condition and does not
require any adjustment of the
pressure.
NOTE❒The TPMS does not replace the
normal tyre maintenance service and
does not indicate any fault in a tyre.
❒Therefore, the TPMS should not be
used as pressure switch while
adjusting the tyre inflation pressure.
❒Driving with insufficient tyre pressure
causes their overheating and can
result in tyre failure. The low inflation
pressure reduces fuel efficiency
and tyre tread life and may also affect
handling and braking performance
of the vehicle.
❒The TPMS does not replace the
correct tyre maintenance. It is up to
the driver to maintain the correct tyre
pressure level measuring it with a
suitable pressure switch. This is
necessary even if the decrease in the
inflation pressure value does not
cause the tyre pressure control
warning light to switch on.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Page 185 of 323
❒make sure that switch E fig. 200 for
the compressor is in position 0 (off),
start the engine, insert plug D fig. 199
into the power socket and switch on
the compressor by placing switch
E fig. 200 in position I (on). Inflate the
tyre to the pressure specified in the
"Cold tyre pressures" paragraph
in "Technical data" chapter. Check
tyre pressure on gauge F fig. 200
with compressor off to obtain a more
precise reading;❒if after 5 minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 1.5 bar, disengage
the compressor from the valve and
power socket, then move the vehicle
forwards by approx. 10 metres in
order to distribute the sealant inside
the tyre evenly, then repeat the
inflation operation;
❒if after this operation it is still
impossible after 5 minutes to reach at
least 1.8 bar, do not start driving
since the tyre is excessively damaged
and the quick tyre repair kit cannot
guarantee proper hold, contact a Fiat
Dealership;
❒if reaching the tyre pressure specified
in paragraph “Inflation pressure” in
chapter “Technical Data”, start driving
immediately;
118) 119) 120)
❒after having driven for about 10
minutes, stop and recheck the tyre
pressure fig. 201; remember to apply
the handbrake;
❒if at least 1.8 bar pressure is read,
restore correct pressure (with engine
running and handbrake on) and
restart;
❒drive with the utmost care to the
nearest Fiat Dealership.
FOR CHECKING AND
RESTORING
PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor can also be used
solely for restoring pressure.
Release the quick coupling and
connect directly to the tyre valve fig.
202; in this way, the bottle will not
be connected to the compressor
and no sealing fluid will be injected.

BOTTLE
REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
To replace the bottle, proceed as
follows:
❒disconnect coupling B fig. 203;
❒turn the bottle to be replaced
anticlockwise and raise it;
❒fit the new bottle and turn it
clockwise;
❒connect coupling B to the cylinder
and fit transparent pipe A in the
specific compartment.
WARNING
112) Give the instruction booklet to
the tyre repair workshop
personnel.
113) Do not use the compressor for
more than 20 consecutive
minutes. Risk of overheating.
Tyres repaired with the quick tyre
repair kit must only be used
temporarily, as the kit is not
suitable for a definitive repair.
114) Punctures on the sides of the
tyre cannot be repaired. Do not
use the quick tyre repair kit if the
damage is due to running with flat
tyre.
115) If the wheel rim has been
damaged (bent so as to cause air
to leak), the wheel may not be
repaired. Do not remove foreign
bodies (screws or nails) from
the tyre.116) The bottle contains ethylene
glycol. It contains latex that might
cause allergic reactions. It is
harmful if swallowed. It is irritant
for the eyes. It may cause
sensitisation if inhaled or on
contact. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin and clothes. In the case of
contact, wash immediately with
plenty of water. In the event that it
is swallowed, do not induce
vomiting. Rinse out your mouth,
drink large quantities of water and
seek immediate medical attention.
Keep out of the reach of children.
The product must not be used
by asthmatics. Do not inhale the
vapours during insertion and
suction. Call a doctor immediately
if allergic reactions are noted.
Store the bottle in the specific
compartment, away from sources
of heat. The sealant has an expiry
date. Replace the bottle if the
sealant has expired.
117) Wear the protective gloves
provided together with the quick
tyre repair kit.
