STARTING
EMERGENCY START-UP
If the instrument panel warning light
Yturns on glowing steadily, contact im-
mediately Fiat Dealership.
JUMP STARTING fig. 1-2
If the battery is flat, it is possible to start
the engine using an auxiliary battery with
the same capacity or a little higher than
the flat one.
Contact Fiat Dealership to have the bat-
tery checked/replaced.Proceed as follows:
❒lift the lid Ato connect to the battery
positive terminal fig. 1.
❒connect positive terminals (+near
the terminal) of the two batteries
with a jump lead;
❒connect with a second cable the nega-
tive terminal (–) of the auxiliary battery
to the ground point as shown in fig. 2;
❒start the engine;
❒when the engine has been started, re-
move the leads reversing the order
above.
If after a few attempts the engine does not
start, do not insist but contact the near-
est Fiat Dealership.
fig. 1F0N0075m
The starting procedure must
be carried out by qualified
personnel because incorrect opera-
tions may cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. The liquid con-
tained in the battery is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames and light-
ed cigarettes away from the battery
and do not cause sparks.

CORRECT USE

IN AN

IMPORTANT Never connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries directly:
sparks could ignite explosive gas released
from the battery. If the auxiliary battery is
installed on another vehicle, avoid any
metal parts on the latter and the vehicle
with the flat battery from accidentally
coming into contact.
BUMP STARTING
Never jump start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. This could
cause a flow of fuel into the catalytic con-
verter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
servo and the power steering system are
not activated until the engine is started, a
greater effort will therefore be required
to press the brake pedal or turn the steer-
ing wheel.CHANGING
A WHEEL
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
To chage a wheel and the use the jack and
spare wheel correctly, observe some of
the precautions listed below.
Signal that the vehicle is sta-
tionary in accordance with
the following legal requirements:
hazard warning lights, emergency
warning triangle, etc. It is advisable
for the people in the vehicle to get
out, especially if the vehicle is heavi-
ly laden, and wait until the repair is
carried out, well away from any dan-
gerous traffic. Apply the handbrake
WARNING
The spare wheel is specific
for your vehicle. Therefore,
it must not be used on vehicles of a
different model. Do not use spare
wheels of different models on your ve-
hicle. The wheel bolts are specific for
your vehicle. Do not use them on ve-
hicles of different models. Do not use
bolts of different models on your ve-
hicle.
WARNING
Repair and refit the wheel
changed as soon as possible.
Do not apply grease to the bolt
threads before assembly: the bolts
could come loose unexpectedly.

CORRECT USE
OF THE
VEHICLE
IN AN
EMERGENCY
To change a wheel proceed
as follows:
❒stop the vehicle in a position where
it does not present a danger for on-
coming traffic and where you can
change the wheel safely. The ground
must be flat and compact;
❒turn the engine off and apply the hand-
brake;
❒engage first gear or reverse;
❒wear a high visibility safety jacket
(compulsory by law in certain coun-
tries) before getting out of the vehicle;
❒indicate that the vehicle has broken
down using the devices required by
the law of the country (e.g. warning
triangle, hazard lights etc.);
❒take the extension and the wrench
from the tool kit under the passenger
seat (see “Compartment under front
passenger seat” in the “Dashboard and
Controls” section);
The jack may only be used to
change wheels which come
with the vehicle or from other vehi-
cles of the same model. Never use the
jack for other purposes, such as lift-
ing other models of vehicle. Never use
the jack to carry out repairs under the
vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the
jack may cause the lifted vehicle to
fall. Do not use the jack for loads
higher than those shown on the label.
WARNING
Never tamper with the in-
flation valve. Never intro-
duce tools of any kind between the
rim and the tyre. Check the tyre and
spare wheel pressure regularly refer-
ring to the values shown in the “Tech-
nical Specifications” chapter.
WARNING
Important notes:
❒the jack weighs 4.5 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired: replace
with an original spare part if damaged;
❒no tool other than the cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
fig. 3F0N0193m
No tools other than the
crank provided should be
used with the spare wheel lifting de-
vice; it should be operated by hand,
only.

❒insert the pin E-fig. 14in the near-
est 12V current socket and start the
engine. Turn the selector D-fig. 13
anti-clockwise to the repair position.
Activate the kit by pressing the
on/off switch. Inflate the tyre to the
pressure specified in the “Inflation
pressure” paragraph, in the “Technical
Data” chapter.For a more accurate reading, it is
advisable to check the pressure
reading on the pressure gauge F-
fig. 13with the compressor off and
without moving the centre selector
from the repair position;
❒if a pressure of at least 3 bar is not
reached within 10 minutes, detach
the transparent filler pipe from the
valve and switch off the 12V current
pin, then move the vehicle about 10
metres forward to distribute the
sealant liquid inside the tyre and
repeat the inflation operation;
❒if, in this case too, within 10 minutes
of turning the compressor on, a
pressure of at least 3 bar is not
reached, do not start driving again
because the tyre is too damaged and
the quick repair kit is not sufficient in
this situation and it is necessary to
go to a Fiat Dealership;
❒if the tyre reaches the pressure spec-
ified in “Inflation pressure” pressure
in the “Technical Data” chapter,
start driving immediately;
fig. 13F0N0827m
fig. 14F0N0182m
Apply the adhesive label in a
position clearly visible by the
driver as a reminder that the tyre has
been treated with the quick repair
kit. Drive carefully, particularly on
bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do
not accelerate or brake suddenly.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes,
stop and check the tyre pressure
again; remember to engage the
handbrake;
❒if, on the other hand, a pressure of at
least 3 bar is reached, restore the cor-
rect pressure recommended in the
“Tyre inflation” paragraph in the
“Technical Data” chapter (with engine
running and handbrake on) and
resume driving;
Stop if the pressure has
dropped to less than 3 bar:
The automatic Fix & Go fast repair
kit cannot work properly if the tyre
is excessively damaged. Go to a Fiat
Dealership.

pressure specified in the “Inflation
pressure” paragraph, in the
“Technical Data” chapter.
NOTE If the tyre has to be deflated,
press the dedicated button Billustrated
in fig. 16.
For a more accurate reading, it is advis-
able to check the pressure reading on the
pressure gauge with the compressor off
and without moving the centre selector
from the repair position.CANISTER REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE

lows:
❒push button A-fig. 17to release the
replacement part;
❒fit the new cansiter and press until it
is automatically engaged.
