NOTE Confirm that the hanger disc is
securely fitted in the wheel disc hole
when the wheel is just lifted off the
ground.
3. After winding up the spare wheel
sufficiently, make sure it is not loose (the
tightening torque should be
approximately 40 Nm (achieved by
applying a force of 200 N at the end of
the wheel nut wrench) then withdraw
the jack handle, taking care not to turn
it in the reverse direction.
278) 279) 280)
4. Have your damaged tyre repaired as
soon as possible.
To store the tools, jack and jack
handle
Reverse the removing procedure when
storing the jack, jack handle and wheel
nut wrench (refer to “Tools, jack and
jack handle”).
WARNING
257)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.
258)Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to
the correct tyre when jacking up the
vehicle. If the vehicle moves while jacked
up, the jack could slip out of position,
leading to an accident.
259)The pressure should be periodically
checked and maintained at the specified
pressure while the tyre is stowed. Driving
with an insufficient tyre pressure can lead
to an accident. If you have no choice but to
drive with an insufficient tyre pressure,
keep your speed down and inflate the tyre
to the correct pressure as soon as
possible. (Refer to “Tyre inflation
pressures”).
260)Set the jack only at the positions
shown here. If the jack is set at a wrong
position, it could dent your vehicle or the
jack might fall over and cause personal
injury.
261)Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft
surface. Otherwise, the jack might slip and
cause personal injury. Always use the jack
on a flat, hard surface. Before setting the
jack, make sure there are no sand or
pebbles under the jack base.262)Stop jacking up the vehicle as soon
as the tyre is raised off the ground. It is
dangerous to raise the vehicle any higher.
Do not get under your vehicle while using
the jack. Do not bump the raised vehicle or
leave it sitting on the jack for a long time.
Both are very dangerous. Do not use a jack
except the one that came with your
vehicle. The jack should not be used for
any purpose other than to change a tyre.
No one should be in your vehicle when
using the jack. Do not start or run the
engine while your vehicle is on the jack. Do
not turn the raised wheel. The tyres still on
the ground could turn and make your
vehicle fall off the jack.
263)Do not get under your vehicle while
using the jack.
264)Do not bump the raised vehicle or
leave it sitting on the jack for a long time.
Both are very dangerous.
265)Do not use a jack except the one that
came with your vehicle.
266)The jack should not be used for any
purpose other than to change a tyre.
267)No one should be in your vehicle
when using the jack.
268)Do not start or run the engine while
your vehicle is on the jack.
269)Do not turn the raised wheel. The
tyres still on the ground could turn and
make your vehicle fall off the jack.
270)Handle the wheel carefully when
changing the tyre, to avoid scratching the
wheel surface.

271)Mount the spare wheel with the valve
stem (J) facing outboard. If you cannot see
the valve stem (J), you have installed the
wheel backwards. Operating the vehicle
with the spare wheel installed backwards
can cause vehicle damage and result in an
accident.
272)Be sure to open the release valve
slowly. If it is opened quickly, the vehicle will
drop abruptly and the jack may come out
of position, causing a serious accident.
273)Never use your foot or a pipe
extension for extra force in the wheel nut
wrench. If you do so, you will tighten the
nut too much.
274)The tyre pressure should be
periodically checked and maintained at the
specified pressure while the tyre is stowed.
275)After changing the tyre and driving the
vehicle about 1,000 km, retighten the
wheel nuts to make sure that they have not
come loose.
276)If the steering wheel vibrates when
driving after changing the tyre, we
recommend you to have the tyres checked
for balance.
277)Do not mix one type of tyre with
another or use a different size from the one
listed. This would cause early wear and
poor handling.
278)The spare wheel should always be
securely in position. If a flat tyre is
changed, put the flat tyre in the spare
wheel mounting position with the wheel
outer surface upward, and use the wheel
nut wrench to secure it firmly.279)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.
280)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.
IMPORTANT
132)Avoid using different size tyres from
the one listed and the combined use of
different types of tyres, as this can affect
driving safety.
133)Even if a wheel has the same rim size
and offset as the specified type of wheel,
its shape may prevent it from being fitted
correctly. Consult an authorised Fiat
Dealership before using wheels that you
have.
134)When installing or removing the spare
wheel, please observe the followings. If you
do not follow them, it could result in break
the spare wheel carrier. Do not use the
power tool. Use the wheel nut wrench
stowed on the vehicle. Do not apply a force
of 400 N or more at the end of the wheel
nut wrench.
135)Never apply oil to either the wheel
bolts or the nuts or they will tighten too
much.
136)If the release valve is loosened too
much (2 or more turns) in the anticlockwise
direction, the jack’s oil will leak and the jack
cannot be used.137)Close the release valve slowly when
lowering the vehicle, or the valve may be
damaged.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

TOWING
If your vehicle needs to be towed
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by your Fiat
Dealership or a commercial tow truck
service. In the following cases,
transport the vehicle using a tow truck.
The engine runs but the vehicle does
not move, or an abnormal noise is
produced.
Inspection of the vehicle’s underside
reveals that oil or some other fluid is
leaking.
If a wheel gets stuck in a ditch, do not
try to tow the vehicle. Please contact
your Fiat Dealership or a commercial
tow truck service for assistance.
Only when you cannot receive a towing
service from a Fiat Dealership or
commercial tow truck service, tow your
vehicle carefully in accordance with the
instructions given in “Emergency
towing” in this part. The regulations
concerning towing may differ from
country to country. It is recommended
that you obey the regulations of the
area where you are driving your vehicle.Towing the vehicle by a tow truck

the “ACC” position or put the operation
mode in ACC and secure the steering
wheel in a straight-ahead position with
a rope or tiedown strap. Never place
the ignition switch in the “LOCK”
position or put the operation mode in
OFF when towing.
Emergency towing
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed by a rope secured to
the towing hook. If your vehicle is to be
towed by another vehicle or if your
vehicle tows another vehicle, pay
careful attention to the following points.

If your vehicle is to be towed by
another vehicle
1. The front towing hooks are located
as shown in the illustration. Secure the
tow rope to the front towing hook.
NOTE Using any part other than the
designated towing hooks could result in
damage to the vehicle body.
Using a wire rope or metal chain can
result in damage to the vehicle body. It
is best to use a non-metallic rope. If you
use a wire rope or metal chain, wrap it
with cloth at any point where it touches
the vehicle body.
Use care that the tow rope is kept as
horizontal as possible. An angled tow
rope can damage the vehicle body.
Secure the tow rope to the same side
towing hook, to keep the tow rope as
straight as possible.
2. Keep the engine running. If the
engine is not running, perform thefollowing operation to unlock the
steering wheel.
Except for vehicles with the keyless
operation system
On vehicles with manual transmission,
turn the ignition switch to the “ACC” or
“ON” position. On vehicles with
automatic transmission, turn the ignition
switch to the “ON” position.
For vehicles with the keyless operation
system
On vehicles with manual transmission,
put the operation mode in ACC or ON.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

142)Never tow an automatic transmission
vehicle with the front wheels up (and the
rear wheels on the ground) (Type B) when
the automatic transmission fluid level is low.
This may cause serious and expensive
damage to the transmission.
143)When the engine is not running, the
brake booster and power steering pump do
not operate. This means higher brake
depression force and higher steering effort
are required. Therefore, vehicle operation is
very difficult.
144)Do not leave the ignition switch in the
“LOCK” position or the operation mode in
OFF. The steering wheel will lock, causing
loss of control.
145)On vehicles with super select 4WD II,
when you are going to tow another vehicle,
set the drive mode-selector to “4H”
position. Selecting “2H” drive may increase
the differential oil temperature, 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.OPERATION UNDER
ADVERSE DRIVING
CONDITIONS
On a flooded road
Avoid flooded roads. Water could enter
the brake discs, resulting in temporarily
ineffective brakes. In such cases, lightly
depress the brake pedal to see if the
brakes operate properly. If they do not,
lightly depress the pedal several times
while driving in order to dry the brake
pads.
When driving in rain or on a road with
many puddles a layer of water may
form between the tyres and the road
surface. This reduces a tyre’s frictional
resistance on the road, resulting in loss
of steering stability and braking
capability.
To cope with this, observe the following
items:
(a) Drive your vehicle at a slow speed.
(b) Do not drive on worn tyres.
(c) Always maintain the specified tyre
inflation pressures.On a snow-covered or frozen road
When driving on a snow-covered or
frozen road, it is recommended that you
use snow tyres or snow traction device
(tyre chains). Refer to the “Snow tyres”
and “Snow traction device (tyre chains)”
sections.
Avoid high-speed operation, sudden
acceleration, abrupt brake application
and sharp cornering.
Depressing the brake pedal during
travel on snowy or icy roads may cause
tyre slippage and skidding. When
traction between the tyres and the road
is reduced the wheels may skid and the
vehicle cannot readily be brought to a
stop by conventional braking
techniques. Braking will differ,
depending upon whether you have
anti-lock brake system (ABS). If you do
have ABS, brake by pressing the brake
pedal hard, and keeping it pressed. If
you do not have ABS, pump the brake
pedal with short rapid jabs, each time
fully applying and fully releasing for
greatest effect.
Allow extra distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you,
and avoid sudden braking.
Accumulation of ice on the braking
system can cause the wheels to lock.
Pull away from a standstill slowly after
confirming safety around the vehicle.
292)
204
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

On a bumpy or rutted road
Drive as slow as possible when driving
on bumpy or rutted roads.
146)
WARNING
292)Do not press the accelerator pedal
rapidly. If the wheels break free of the ice,
the vehicle could suddenly start moving
and possibly cause an accident.
IMPORTANT
146)The impact on tyres and/or wheels
when driving on a bumpy or rutted road
can damage the tyre and/or wheel.
FUSIBLE LINKS
The fusible links will melt to prevent a
fire if a large current attempts to flow
through certain electrical systems. In
case of a melted fuse link, we
recommend you to have your vehicle
inspected. For the fusible links, please
refer to “Passenger compartment fuse
location table” and “Engine
compartment fuse location table”.
293)
WARNING
293)Fusible links must not be replaced by
any other device. Failing to fit the correct
fusible link may result in fire in the vehicle,
property destruction and serious or fatal
injuries at any time.
