The addition of objects
(speakers, spoilers, etc.) on
the rear shelf or boot lid, ex-
cept those envisaged by the
manufacturer, may prevent the gas
filled struts at the sides of the boot
from working properly.
When using the boot, make
sure the loads do not exceed
the permitted weight (see “Technical
specifications” chapter). Also make
sure the items in the boot are
arranged properly to prevent them
being thrown forwards and injuring
passengers should you brake sharply.

the rear shelf to prevent
them being thrown forwards and in-
juring passengers in case of accident
or sharp braking.

IF THE BATTERY IS FLAT
WARNING The battery charging proce-
dure is described only for information pur-
poses. This operation should be carried
out by Fiat Dealership.
Charging should be slow at low amp rat-
ing for 24 hours. Charging for a longer
time may damage the battery.
Charge the battery as follows:
❒disconnect battery negative terminal;
❒connect the charger cables to the bat-
tery terminals, observing the poles;
❒turn on the charger;
❒when you have finished, turn the
charger off before disconnecting the
battery;
❒reconnect battery negative terminal.
WARNING If the vehicle is fitted with
alarm system, turn it off with the remote
control (see “Alarm” in the “Dashboard
and controls” chapter).
JACKING THE CAR
If the car is to be lifted, go to a Fiat Deal-
ership which is equipped with the arm
hoist or workshop lift.
Jack up the car only by positioning the jack
arms or the shop jack in the points shown
in the figures fig. 43.
The liquid in the battery is
poisonous and corrosive. Do
not let it touch the skin or eyes.
Recharging the battery should be
done in a well ventilated area away
from naked flames or possible sources
of sparks: explosion and fire risk.
WARNING
Do not attempt to recharge
a frozen battery. Thaw it
first, otherwise it could explode. If the
battery froze, make sure the internal
elements are not broken (short-circuit
risk) and that the casing is not
cracked (risk of spilling the poisonous
and corrosive fluid).
