(compulsory by law in certain
countries) before getting out of the
vehicle;
❒indicate that the vehicle has broken
down using the devices required by
the law in the current country (e.g.
warning triangle, hazard lights, etc.);
❒In the event of a wheel change on a
slope or on unsurfaced roads, put
any object as stop under the wheels;
❒take the tool bag under the
passenger seat (see “Compartment
under front passenger seat” in the
“Know your vehicle” section);
The container includes these tools:
A - tow hook
B - rod for spanner
C - bolt spanner
D - jack
E - extension for spanner
F - screwdriver grip

INFLATION
PROCEDURE
158) 159) 160) 161) 162)
❒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
REPLACEMENT

WARNING
171) Screw on the tow hook and
check that it stops at the end
of travel position.
172) Before towing, switch off the
steering lock (see "Starting
device" paragraph under the
"Knowing your car" section).
173) Remember that the brake servo
and the electric power steering
are not available during towing
operations. Significantly greater
force must be exerted on the
brake pedal and on the steering
wheel to operate them.
174) Do not use flexible cables for
towing and avoid jerking. During
towing operations, make sure that
the fastened joint does not
damage adjoining components.
175) When towing the vehicle

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential for
ensuring long vehicle life under the
best conditions.
This is why Fiat has planned a
series of checks and maintenance
operations every 48,000 km
depending on the engine version.
The scheduled maintenance does
not, however, cover all the needs of
the vehicle: also during the initial
period, before the 48,000 km
service and between one service
and the next, ordinary care such as
systematic fluid level checks with
top ups and tyre pressure checks,
etc. remain necessary.
IMPORTANT The Scheduled
Servicing services are set out by
the Manufacturer. Failure to have
them carried out may invalidate the
warranty.
Scheduled Servicing can be carried
out by any Fiat Dealership, at
pre-established times.If during each operation, in addition
to the ones scheduled, the need
arises for further replacements
or repairs, these may only be
carried out with the express
agreement of the Customer.
IMPORTANT It is advisable to
inform a Fiat Dealership of any
small operating irregularities without
waiting for the next service.
If your vehicle is used frequently for
towing, the interval between service
coupons must be reduced.
