SPEED LIMITER
The Speed Limiter is a driver assist
function to prevent from exceeding the
speed set by driver while engine power
control.
156)
NOTE If depressing the clutch pedal
(M/T), the Speed Limiter does not
activate.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the set
speed, control state “LIMIT” and the
Speed Limiter’s symbol will blink in the
combination meter.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the set
speed after indicated, control state
“LIMIT” and the beep alert will sound a
certain period of time.
While running without blinked control
state “LIMIT” and the Speed Limiter’s
symbol, if you decrease the set speed
and vehicle speed is more than set
speed, control state “LIMIT” and the
Speed Limiter’s symbol blinking starts
but beep alert is delayed.
In this case, when vehicle speed keeps
exceeding set speed for about
30 seconds after control state “LIMIT”
and the Speed Limiter’s symbol are
blinked, beep alert will sound a certain
period of time.
If the vehicle speeds decreases less
than set speeds, control state “LIMIT”
and the Speed Limiter’s symbol stop
blinking. When beep alert is sounding,
the beep alert also goes off.NOTE However, this gives priority to
audio and visual signal of safety
reasons or driver’s demand. If the set
speed is too lower based on current
shift position, the Speed Limiter may
not limit the vehicle speed to prevent
engine stall.

WARNING
276)To start the engine using jumper
cables from another vehicle, perform the
correct procedures according to the
instruction below. Incorrect procedures
could result in a fire or explosion or
damage to the vehicles.
277)Keep sparks, cigarettes and flames
away from the battery because the battery
may produce an explosion.
278)Do not attempt to start the engine by
pulling or pushing the vehicle. It could
damage your vehicle.
279)Check the other vehicle. It must have
a 12-volt battery. If the other system isn’t
12-volt, shorting can damage both
vehicles.
280)Use the proper cables suitable for the
battery size to prevent overheating of the
cables.
281)Check the jumper cables for damage
and corrosion before use.
282)Always wear protective eye goggles
when working near the battery.
283)Keep the battery out of the reach of
children.
284)Turn off the ignition on both vehicles
beforehand. Make sure that the cables or
your clothes cannot be caught by the fan
or drive belt. Personal injury could result.
285)If electrolyte fluid is not visible, or
appears to be frozen, Do Not Attempt
Jump Starting! A battery might rupture or
explode if the temperature is below the
freezing point or if it is not filled to the
proper level.286)Electrolyte is corrosive diluted
sulphuric acid. If electrolyte (battery acid)
comes into contact with your hands, eyes,
clothes or the painted surface of your
vehicle, it should be thoroughly flushed
with water. If electrolyte gets in your eyes,
flush them with water immediately and
thoroughly, and get prompt medical
attention.
287)Make sure that the connection is
made to the appointed position (shown in
the illustration). If the connection is made
directly to the negative (−) side of the
battery, the inflammable gases generated
from the battery might catch fire and
explode.
288)When connecting the jumper cables,
do not connect the positive (+) cable to the
negative (−) terminal. Otherwise sparks
might cause explosion of the battery.
289)Use care not to get the jumper cable
caught in the cooling fan or other rotating
part in the engine compartment.
290)Keep the engine of the vehicle giving
assistance running.
291)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with your skin and
eyes. The battery should be charged in a
well ventilated place, away from naked
flames or possible sources of sparks:
danger of explosion and fire.
292)Do not attempt to charge a frozen
battery: it must be thawed first, otherwise it
may explode. If freezing has occurred, the
battery should be checked by skilled
personnel to make sure that the internal
elements are not damaged and that the
body is not cracked, with the risk of leaking
poisonous and corrosive acid.

311)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.
312)Do not get under your vehicle while
using the jack.
313)Do not bump the raised vehicle or
leave it sitting on the jack for a long time.
Both are very dangerous.
314)Do not use a jack except the one that
came with your vehicle.
315)The jack should not be used for any
purpose other than to change a tyre.
316)No one should be in your vehicle
when using the jack.
317)Do not start or run the engine while
your vehicle is on the jack.
318)Do not turn the raised wheel. The
tyres still on the ground could turn and
make your vehicle fall off the jack.
319)Handle the wheel carefully when
changing the tyre, to avoid scratching the
wheel surface.
320)Mount the spare wheel with the valve
stem K) facing outboard fig. 0. If you
cannot see the valve stem (K), you have
installed the wheel backwards.Operating the vehicle with the spare wheel
installed backwards can cause vehicle
damage and result in an accident.
321)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.
322)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.
323)The tyre pressure should be
periodically checked and maintained at the
specified pressure while the tyre is stowed.
324)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.
325)If the steering wheel vibrates when
driving after changing the tyre, we
recommend you to have the tyres checked
for balance.
326)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.
327)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.
328)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.329)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
166)Avoid using different size tyres from
the one listed and the combined use of
different types of tyres, as this can affect
driving safety.
167)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.
168)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.
169)Never apply oil to either the wheel
bolts or the nuts or they will tighten too
much.
170)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.
171)Close the release valve slowly when
lowering the vehicle, or the valve may be
damaged.
