Jacking up a 4-wheel drive vehicles
222)
Clutch operation
Quick or slight clutch engagement
made while the engine is running at
high speed will cause damage to the
clutch and transmission because the
tractive force is very great. Operate the
pedal slowly and positively.Limited-slip differential
A limited-slip differential is applied for
the rear wheel differential only. The
features of this limited-slip differential
are described below:
Just as with a conventional differential,
the wheel on one side is allowed to turn
at a different speed from the wheel on
the other side when the vehicle is
cornering. The difference between the
limited-slip differential and a
conventional differential is that if the
wheel on one side of the vehicle loses
traction, a greater amount of torque is
applied to the wheel on the other side
to improve traction.
Even if there is a difference in the
amount of traction the wheels can get,
if both of them are spinning, the
limited-slip differential will not be
effective.
121) 122)
IMPORTANT
119)Always use tyres of the same size,
same type, and same brand which have no
wear differences. Using the tyres which
differ in size, type, brands or the degree of
wear or the inappropriate tyre inflation
pressure, will increase the differential oil
temperature and may be impossible to shift
the transfer, resulting in possible damage to
the driving system. Further, the drive train
will be subjected to excessive loading,
possibly leading to oil leakage, component
seizure, or other serious faults.
120)Be sure to set the drive mode-selector
to “2H” position and transport the vehicle
with the driving wheels on a carriage (Type
C or D) as illustrated. Never try to tow with
the drive mode-selector in “4H” or “4L”
position (Easy select 4WD), “4H”, “4HLc” or
“4LLc” position (Super select 4WD II) and
with the front or rear wheels on the ground
(Type A or B) as illustrated. This could result
in damage to the drivetrain, or unstable
towing. If you cannot set the drive
mode-selector to “2H” position or the
transmission is malfunctioning or damaged,
transport the vehicle with all the wheels on
a carriage (Type C or D) as illustrated.
121)Never start the engine while one of the
rear wheels is jacked up and the other in
contact with the ground; doing so may
cause the vehicle to jump forward.
122)When attempting to extract the
vehicle from snow, mud, etc., and the
engine is run continuously at high speed,
the limited-slip differential will be adversely
affected.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Page 181 of 312

The set speed driving is deactivated
automatically in any of the following
ways.
When you depress the clutch pedal
(on vehicles with M/T).
When your speed slows to about
15 km/h or more below the set speed
because of a hill, etc.
When your speed slows to about
40 km/h or less.
When the active stability & traction
control (ASTC) starts operating. Refer to
“Active stability & traction control
(ASTC)”.
227)
Also, the set speed driving may be
deactivated as follow:
When the engine speed rises and
approaches the tachometer’s red zone
(the red-coloured part of the
tachometer dial).
127)
To resume the set speed
If the set speed driving is deactivated
by the condition described in “To
deactivate”, you can resume the
previously set speed by push up the
RES + switch (C) while driving at a
speed of about 40 km/h or higher.Under either of the following conditions,
however, using the switch does not
allow you to resume the previously set
speed. In these situations, repeat the
speed setting procedure:
The CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF
switch is pressed.
The ignition switch is turned OFF or
the operation mode is put in OFF.
Indicator lamp go off.
IMPORTANT
124)When you do not wish to drive at a
set speed, turn off the cruise control for
safety.
125)On vehicles with M/T, do not move the
gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) position
while driving at a set speed without
depressing the clutch pedal. The engine will
run too fast and might be damaged.126)Do not use cruise control when driving
conditions will not allow you to stay at the
same speed, such as in heavy traffic or on
roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered,
wet, slippery, on a steep downhill slope.
127)When the set speed driving is
deactivated automatically in any situation
other than those listed above, there may be
a system malfunction. Press the CRUISE
CONTROL ON/OFF switch to turn off the
cruise control and have your vehicle
inspected by a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
227)On vehicles equipped with A/T,
although the set speed driving will be
deactivated when shifting to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position, never move the
selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position while driving. You would have no
engine braking and could cause a serious
accident.

IMPORTANT
131)Do not add coolant while the engine is
hot. Suddenly adding cold coolant could
damage the engine. Wait for the engine to
cool down, then add coolant a little at a
time.
BLEEDING THE FUEL
SYSTEM
The fuel system should be bled to
remove air as described below if the
fuel supply is exhausted during travel.
Pump the hand pump (A) at the top of
the fuel filter until the hand pump
becomes stiff.
Then try again to start the engine. If the
engine does not start, repeat the
process above.
253) 254)
WARNING
253)Do not smoke or have any other open
flame near the vehicle while bleeding the
fuel system.
254)Be sure to carefully clean away any
spilt fuel which could ignite and cause a
fire.
REMOVAL OF WATER
FROM THE FUEL
FILTER
If the fuel filter indicator lamp in the
instrument panel illuminates during
driving, it indicates that water has
accumulated in the fuel filter. If this
occurs, remove the water as described
below.
1. Loosen the drain plug (A) of the fuel
filter.
2. Operate the hand pump (B) slowly
6 or 7 times in order to force the water
out through the drain plug (A).

chocks or blocks (A) at the tyre that is
diagonally opposite from the tyre (B)
you are changing.
257) 258)
NOTE The chocks shown in the
illustration do not come with your
vehicle. It is recommended that you
keep ones in the vehicle for use if
needed.
NOTE If chocks are not available, use
stones or any other objects that are
large enough to hold the wheel in
position.
6. Get the jack, jack handle and wheel
nut wrench ready. Refer to “Tools, jack
and jack handle”.Spare wheel information
The spare wheel is stored under the
floor of the cargo bed. Check the air
pressure of the spare tyre frequently
and make sure it is ready for
emergency use at any time.
