IMPORTANT Never connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries directly:
sparks could ignite explosive gas released
from the battery. If the auxiliary battery is
installed on another car, prevent acciden-
tal contact between metallic parts of the
two cars.
This procedure must be per-
formed by expert personnel
because incorrect actions may cause
electrical discharge of considerable
intensity. Furthermore, battery fluid
is poisonous and corrosive: avoid con-
tact with your skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames away from the battery.
No smoking. Do not cause sparks.
WARNING
Never use a rapid battery
charger to jump start the en-
gine: this could damage the
electronic systems and the en-
gine ignition and injection control units.BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. This could
cause a flow of fuel into the catalytic con-
verter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake
servo and the electric power steering sys-
tem are not activated until the engine is
started, a greater effort will therefore be
required to press the brake pedal or turn
the steering wheel.
Indicate that the car is sta-
tionary according to the laws
in force: emergency lights, refracting
warning triangle, etc. Passengers
should leave the car, particularly if
it is very loaded, and wait for the
wheel to be changed away from on-
coming traffic. Arrange wedges or
other suitable material under the
wheels to block the car on slopes or
rough roads.

The kit cannot be used to re-
pair damage to the tyre side-
wall. Do not use the quick repair kit
if the tyre was damaged by running
on a flat.
WARNING
The damage cannot be re-
paired with the kit if the
wheel rim is damaged (deformation
of the channel causing leakage of air).
Do not remove the foreign body
(screw or nail) from the tyre.
WARNING
Do not operate the com-
pressor for longer than 20
minutes consecutively. Risk of over-
heating. The quick repair kit is not
suitable for definitive repairs. The
tyres may only be repaired tem-
porarily.
WARNING
INFLATION PROCEDURE
❒Ensure that the handbrake is up.
Undo the tyre valve cap, extract the
inflation tube A-fig. 5and tighten the
ring nut Bon the tyre valve;
fig. 5F0H0747mThe cylinder contains ethyl
glycol. Contains latex: may
cause an allergic reaction. Harmful if
swallowed. Irritates the eyes. May

❒make sure that the switch D-fig. 6
of the compressor is in position 0(off),
start the engine, insert plug A-fig. 7
into the cigar lighter (or 12V socket)
and operate the compressor by taking
the switch Dto position I(on). In-
flate the tyre to the pressure specified
in the “Inflation pressure” paragraph,
“Technical Specifications” chapter.
For a more accurate reading, check
pressure gauge F-fig. 13with the
compressor off;
❒if after 5 minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 1.5 bar, disengage
compressor from valve and current
outlet, then move the car forth for ap-
prox. ten metres in order to distrib-
ute the sealing fluid inside the tyre
evenly, then repeat the inflation op-
eration;
❒If after this operation it is still impos-
sible after 5 minutes to reach at least
1.8 bar, do not start driving since the
tyre is excessively damaged and the
quick tyre repair kit cannot guarantee
suitable sealing, contact Fiat Dealer-
ship;
❒if reaching the tyre pressure specified
in paragraph “Inflation pressure” in
section “Technical Specifications”,
start driving immediately;
Apply the adhesive label in a
position clearly visible by the
driver as a reminder that the tyre has
been treated with the quick repair kit.
Drive carefully, particularly on bends.
Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do not ac-
celerate or brake suddenly.
WARNINGStop if the pressure has
dropped to less than 1.8 bar:
The automatic Fix & Go fast repair
kit cannot work properly if the tyre is
excessively damaged. Go to a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes stop
and check again the tyre pressure; pull
up the handbrake;
❒if at least 1.8 bar pressure is read, re-
store proper pressure (with engine
running and handbrake on) and
restart;
❒drive with the utmost care to the
nearest Fiat Dealership.

The jack may only be used to
replace wheels on the car
which it equips or other cars of the
same model. Never use the jack for
other purposes, such as lifting other
models of vehicle. Never use the jack
to carry out repairs under the car. In-
correct positioning of the jack may
cause the car to fall. Do not use the
jack for loads higher than those
shown on the label. Snow chains can-
not be fitted on a space saver spare
wheel. Therefore, if a front wheel
(drive wheel) is punctured and you
need to use snow chains, swap with a
rear wheel. In this way, you will have
two normal wheels on the front on
which you can fit snow chains and
solve the emergency.
WARNING
Incorrect wheel cup assem-
bly may cause it to come off
when the car is travelling. Never tam-
per with the inflation valve. Never in-
troduce tools of any kind between the
rim and the tyre. Check tyre and
space saver spare wheel pressure reg-
ularly referring to the values shown in
the “Technical Specifications” chap-
ter.
WARNINGImportant notes:
❒the jack cannot be repaired: replace
with an original spare part if damaged;
❒no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel proceed as follows:
❒stop the car in a position so that it is
not a danger for on-coming traffic and
where you can replace the wheel safe-
ly. The ground must be flat and com-
pact;
❒Turn the engine off and pull up the
handbrake.
❒Engage first gear or reverse;
❒lift the boot mat;
❒loosen the fastening device A-fig. 11;
❒take out the tool container Band take
it near to the wheel to be changed;
❒take the space saver spare wheel C;

FASTENING THE TOW RING
Proceed as follows:
❒take the tow hook Bfrom the sup-
port;
❒tighten the ring on the rear fig. 48 or
front threaded pin fig. 49.
fig. 48F0H0204mfig. 49F0H0205m
Before towing, turn the key
to MAR and then to STOP
without extracting it. The steering
column will automatically lock when
the key is removed and the wheels
cannot be steered.
WARNING
The power brakes and pow-
er steering will not work while
the car is being towed. More effort on
the brake pedal and steering wheel will
therefore be required. Do not use flex-
ible cables when towing and avoid
jerky movements. Make sure not to
damage parts in contact with the car
while towing. Respect the specific rules
of the Highway Code when towing the
car specifically in relation to the tow-
ing device and the behaviour to main-
tain on the road.
WARNING
Do not start the engine while
towing the car.
