WARNING
146) Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc. to show that your
vehicle is stationary according to
the regulations in force.
Passengers should get out of the
vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
loaded, and wait for the wheel
to be changed away from the
traffic. Apply the handbrake. in
the event of a wheel change on a
slope or on unsurfaced roads,
put any object as stop under the
wheels.147) The spare wheel supplied (for
versions/markets, where
provided) is specific for your
vehicle. Therefore, it must not be
used on other models. Do not
use spare wheels of other models
on your vehicle. The wheel bolts
are specific for your vehicle: do
not use them on different models
and do not use bolts from other
models on your car.
148) Have the wheel repaired and
refitted as soon as possible. Do
not apply grease to the bolt
threads before fitting: they could
come unscrewed.
149) Use the jack only to replace
wheels on the vehicle with which
it is supplied or on other vehicles
of the same model. Never use
the jack for other purposes, such
as lifting other car models. 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.
150) Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never introduce tools of any
kind between rim and tyre. Check
tyre and spare wheel pressure
regularly, referring to the values
shown in the "Technical
specifications" section.

151) No tools other than the crank
provided should be used with
the spare wheel lifting device; it
should be operated by hand only.
152) On versions equipped with
self-levelling air suspension, never
introduce the head or hands in
the wheel arch: the vehicle could
raise or lower automatically
depending on possible load or
temperature changes.
153) The device should only be
operated by hand, without using
any type of tool other than the
crank provided, like pneumatic or
electrical screwers.
154) The moving components of the
jack (screw and joints) can also
cause injuries: do not touch them.
If you come into contact with
lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.155) At the end of the operation of
raising/locking the spare wheel,
after having checked the correct
positioning of the wheel under the
platform (yellow notch inside the
window on the device), the
spanner must be extracted, taking
care not to turn it in the wrong
direction (as in fig. 190) to
facilitate the extraction of the
spanner itself, to prevent the
attachment device from being
released and the wheel assembly
not being securely retained.
156) Each time the spare wheel is
moved, check that it is correctly
positioned in its housing under
the platform. If it is not correctly
positioned, this could adversely
affect safety.
157) The spare wheel lifting device
is equipped with a clutch safety
system for its own protection; this
could activated if an excessive
load is applied on the
maneuvering screw.FIX&GO

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

WHEELS AND TYRES
Check the pressure of each tyre,
including the space-saver wheel,
approximately every two weeks and
before long journeys: the pressure
should be checked with the tyre rested
and cold.
It is normal for the pressure to increase
when the vehicle is used; for the correct
tyre inflation pressure, see “Wheels” in
the “Technical specifications” section.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal
tyre wear fig. 249:
Anormal pressure: tread evenly worn;
Blow pressure: tread particularly worn
at the edges;
Chigh pressure: tread particularly worn
in the centre.
The tyres must be replaced when the
tread is less than 1.6 mm thick. In
any case, follow the laws in force in the
country you are in.

IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
❒As far as possible, avoid sharp
braking and screech starts. Be
careful not to hit the kerb, potholes or
other hard obstacles. Driving for
long stretches over uneven roads can
damage the tyres;
❒periodically check that the tyres have
no cuts in the side wall, abnormal
swelling or irregular tyre wear.
Contact a Fiat Dealership if required;
❒avoid overloading the car when
travelling: this may cause serious
damage to the wheels and tyres;
❒if a tyre is punctured, stop
immediately and change it to avoid
damage to the tyre, the rim,
suspensions and steering system;❒tyres age even if they are not used a
great deal. Cracks in the tread and
on the side walls are a sign of ageing.
In any event, have the tyres checked
by specialised personnel if they
have been fitted for longer than 6
years. Remember to check the spare
wheel very carefully;
❒in the case of replacement, always fit
new tyres, avoiding those of
unknown origin;
❒if a tyre is changed, also change the
inflation valve;
❒to allow even wear between the front
and rear tyres, it is advisable to
change them over every 10–15
thousand kilometres, keeping them
on the same side of the vehicle so as
not to reverse the direction of
rotation.
IMPORTANT Replacing a tyre, check
that the tyre pressure monitoring
(TPMS) sensor is also taken from the
previous rim, together with the valve.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING
198) Remember that the road
holding qualities of your vehicle
also depend on the correct
inflation pressure of the tyres.
199) If the pressure is too low, the
tyre will overheat and could be
seriously damaged.
200) Avoid switching the tyres from
the right side of the vehicle to the
left side and vice versa.
201) Never submit alloy rims to
repainting treatments requiring
the use of temperatures
exceeding 150°C. The mechanical
properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
RUBBER HOSES
As far as the brake system and fuel
supply system rubber hoses are
concerned, follow the "Scheduled
Servicing Plan" in this chapter carefully.
Ozone, high temperatures and
prolonged lack of fluid in the system
may cause hardening and cracking of
the hoses, with possible leaks. Careful
checking is therefore necessary.
WINDSCREEN
WIPER
BLADES
Periodically clean the rubber part using
special products; TUTELA
PROFESSIONAL SC 35 is
recommended.
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is
deformed or worn. In any case, it is
advisable to replace them
approximately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce
the possibility of damage to the blades:
❒if the temperature falls below zero,
make sure that ice has not frozen
the rubber against the glass. Use a
de-icing product to release it if
required;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in
addition to protecting the blades,
this prevents effort on the motor and
overheating;
❒do not operate the windscreen and
rear window wipers on dry glass.
