To change a wheel proceed as
follows:
❒stop the vehicle in a position that is
not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel safe-
ly. The ground should be flat and ad-
equately firm;
❒turn the engine off and pull up the
handbrake;
❒engage first gear or reverse;
❒wear the reflecting safety jacket (com-
pulsory by law in certain countries) be-
fore getting out of the vehicle;
❒alert other drivers that the vehicle is
stationary, using the proper devices in
compliance with the regulations in
force (e.g.: warning triangle, hazard
warning lights, etc …);
❒take the extension and the wrench
from the tool bag under the passen-
ger’s seat (see “Compartment under
the front passenger’s seat” in section
“dashboard and controls”);
The jack shall only be used
for changing wheels on the
vehicle with which it is provided or on
vehicles of the same model. It must
not be used for other purposes such
as for instance raising vehicles of oth-
er models. In no case should it be used
for repairs under the vehicle. Incor-
rect positioning of the jack may cause
the jacked vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack for higher capacities than
stated on its label.
WARNING
Never tamper with the in-
flation valve. Never place
tools between the rim and tyre.
Check and restore, if required, the
pressure of tyres and spare wheel to
the values given in section “Technical
Specifications”.
WARNING
Please note:
❒the jack weight is 4.5 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired. If it breaks
it must be replaced with a new jack;
❒no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.

off contaminated clothes. If swal-
lowed, do not induce vomit, rinse out
the mouth, drink a lot of water and
call the doctor immediately. Keep
away from children. This product must
not be used by asthmatics. Do not in-
hale vapours. Call the doctor imme-
diately in case of allergic reactions.
Keep the cylinder in the space provid-
ed for the purpose and far from heat.
The sealing fluid has limited life.

❒make sure the compressor switch D-
fig. 13is set to 0(off), start the en-
gine and fit plug E-fig. 14into the
nearest current outlet and then turn
on the compressor by setting switch
D-fig. 13to I(on). Inflate tyre at 4 bar
pressure.
Check tyre pressure on gauge F-fig.
13with compressor off to obtain pre-
cise reading;
❒if after 5 minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 3 bar, disengage com-
pressor from valve and current outlet,
then move the vehicle forth for ap-
prox. ten metres in order to distrib-
ute the sealing fluid inside the tyre
evenly, then repeat the inflation op-
eration;
❒if after this operation it is still impos-
sible after 10 minutes to reach at least
3 bar, do not start driving since the
tyre is excessively damaged and the
quick tyre repair kit cannot guarantee
suitable sealing, contact Fiat Dealer-
ship;
❒re-start immediately if the tyre has
been inflated to 4 bar pressure;
fig. 13F0N0180m
fig. 14F0N0182m

position for the driver to in-
dicate that the tyre has been treat-
ed with the quick tyre repair kit. Dri-
ve carefully especially when corner-
ing. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Avoid
heavy braking and accelerating.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes
stop and check again the tyre pres-
sure; pull up the handbrake;
If the pressure falls below 3
bars, do not drive any fur-
ther: the quick tyre repair kit Fix & Go
automatic cannot guarantee proper
hold because the tyre is too much
damaged. Contact Fiat Dealership.

FOR CHECKING AND
RESTORING PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor can be also used just for
restoring pressure. Disconnect the quick

nect quick connection Cto the tyre valve
and press the yellow button set in the mid-
dle of the compressor switch.CYLINDER REPLACEMENT

❒fit the new cylinder and turn it clock-
wise;
❒fit connection Aand connect tube B
into its seat.
It is of vital importance to
communicate that the tyre
