wheel bolts FIAT FIORINO 2019 Owner handbook (in English)

loosen the fixing bolts of the wheel
to be replaced by about one turn, using
the spanner provided;
for wheels with steel rims, remove
the wheel cap;
turn the jack to open it partially and
then position it under the vehicle at
the references A fig. 127 near the wheel
to be replaced;
turn the jack to open it until the
groove A fig. 128 of the jack is correctly
inserted in the lower profile B on the
side member;
warn anybody nearby that the
vehicle is about to be lifted. They must
stay clear and not touch the vehicle
until it is back on the ground;
operate the jack and lift the vehicle
until the wheel is several centimetres off
the ground. When turning the crank,
ensure that it rotates freely in order
to avoid grazing your hands against the
ground. The moving components of
the jack (screws and joints) can also
cause injuries: avoid touching them. If
you come into contact with lubricating
grease, clean yourself thoroughly;
fully loosen the four fastening bolts
and remove the wheel;
make sure the contact surfaces
between spare wheel and hub are
clean so that the fastening bolts will not
come loose;
fit the standard wheel by inserting
the first bolt two threads B fig. 129 into
the hole nearest to the inflation valve
A;
fit the hub cap, making sure that the
symbol
(on the cup) aligns with the
inflation valve, and then insert the other
three bolts;
tighten the bolts using the spanner
provided;
for cars with alloy rim, fit the hub
cap;
turn the jack handle to lower the
vehicle, and remove the jack;
use the wrench provided to fasten
the bolts completely in a criss-cross
fashion as shown in fig. 130.

117)The space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets, where provided) is
specific to your vehicle, do not use it on
other models, or use the space-saver
wheel of other models on your vehicle. The
space-saver wheel must only be used in
the event of an emergency. Never use it for
more than strictly necessary and never
exceed 80 km/h. "Warning! For temporary
use only! 80km/h max! Replace with
standard wheel as soon as possible. Never
remove or cover the sticker on the
space-saver wheel. Never apply a wheel
cap on a space-saver wheel. The driving
characteristics of the vehicle will be
modified with the space-saver wheel fitted.
Avoid violent acceleration and braking,
abrupt steering and fast cornering.
118)Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc to show that your vehicle is
stationary. 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. If you are on
a slope or uneven surface, place wedges
or other suitable objects under the wheels
to secure the vehicle. Have the wheel
repaired and refitted as soon as possible.
Do not apply grease to the bolt threads
before fitting: they could come unscrewed.119)The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. Any other
use, e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or
different things, is strictly prohibited. Never
use it to carry out maintenance or repairs
under the vehicle or to change summer/
winter wheels and vice versa: we advise
you to contact a Fiat Dealership. Never go
under the raised vehicle: use it only in
the positions indicated. Do not use the jack
for loads higher than the one shown on
its label. Never start the engine with vehicle
raised. If the vehicle is raised more than
necessary, everything can become more
unstable, with the risk of the vehicle
dropping violently. Thus, lift the vehicle only
as needed in order to access the spare
wheel.
120)Incorrect hub cap assembly may
cause it to come off when the vehicle is
moving. Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never introduce tools of any kind
between rim and tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
referring to the values shown in the
"Technical data" chapter.
WARNING
28)When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can turn freely without scraping
your hand against the ground. The moving
components of the jack ("worm screw"
and joints) can also cause injuries: do not
touch them. If you come into contact
with lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.
29)Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the correct tightening
of the fixing bolts checked.
