IN AN EMERGENCY

WARNING
141) 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.
142) 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.143) Have the wheel repaired and
refitted as soon as possible. Do
not apply grease to the bolt
threads before fitting: they could
come unscrewed.
144) 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.
145) 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.
146) No tools other than the crank
provided should be used with
the spare wheel lifting device; it
should be operated by hand only.147) 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.
148) The device should only be
operated by hand, without using
any type of tool other than the
crank provided, like pneumatic or
electrical screwers.
149) 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.
150) 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. 189) to
facilitate the extraction of the
spanner itself, to prevent the
attachment device from being
released and the wheel assembly
not being securely retained.

❒Pull the handbrake. Unscrew the tyre
valve cap, take out the filler hose A
fig. 196 and tighten the ring nut B on
the tyre valve;
❒insert the plug E fig. 198 in the
nearest 12 V power socket and start
the engine. Turn the selector D fig.
197 anticlockwise 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. 197 with the compressor off
and without moving the centre
selector from the repair position;
❒if after 10 minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 3 bar, release the
transparent filler pipe from the valve
and take out the 12 V plug, then
move the vehicle forwards by about
10 metres in order to distribute
the sealing fluid inside the tyre evenly,
then repeat the inflation operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannot
reach at least 3 bar after 10 minutes,
do not resume driving because the
tyre is too damaged and the quick
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee
suitable sealing. Contact a Fiat
Dealership;
❒if the tyre reaches the pressure
specified in “Inflation pressure”
paragraph in the "Technical Data"
section, start driving immediately;

❒after having driven for about 10
minutes, stop and recheck the tyre
pressure; remember to apply the
handbrake;
❒if a pressure value of at least 3 bar is
detected, restore the correct
pressure prescribed in the paragraph
“Inflation pressure” in “Technical
specification” (with the engine
running and the handbrake
engaged), resume driving and drive
with care to nearest Fiat Dealership.
FOR CHECKING AND
RESTORING
PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor can also be used
solely for restoring pressure.
❒Pull the handbrake.
❒Undo the cap for the tyre valve,
extract the pipe C fig. 199 with the
quick coupling and connect it directly
to the valve of the tyre to be inflated.
❒Insert the plug in the nearest 12
V power socket and start the engine.
❒Rotate the selector clockwise to the
pressure renewal 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.
NOTE If the tyre has to be deflated,
press the dedicated button B
illustrated in fig. 200. For a more
accurate reading, it is advisable to
check the pressure reading on
the pressure gauge with the
compressor off and without moving
the centre selector from the
pressure renewal position.BOTTLE
