PROTECTING
THE ENVIRONMENT
Protecting the environment has been the guiding
principle in the design of the Fiat Multipla right from
start. The result is the use of materials and creation of
devices that can reduce or considerably curtail harmful
influences on the environment.The devices for curtailing petrol engine emissions are
the following:
❒three-way catalytic converter;
❒Lambda sensor;
❒fuel evaporation system.
The devices for curtailing diesel fuel engine emissions
are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.).
As a consequence Fiat Multipla is ready to travel with
several advantage points over the most severe
international anti-pollution regulations.
During normal service the catalytic converter reaches high temperatures.
Therefore, do not park the car over inflammable material (grass, dry leaves, pine
needles, etc.): fire danger.WARNING

BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
This could cause fuel to flow into the catalytic
converter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the servobrake and
electrical power steering system are not operating
until the engine is started, a greater effort will
therefore be required to press the brake pedal or turn
the steering wheel.IF A TYRE IS PUNCTURED
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
For versions/markets where applicable, the car can be
fitted with a quick tyre repair kit called FIX & GO,
replacing the usual tool fitting, the spare wheel lifting
winch and the space-saver spare wheel.
Normal spare small wheel, or (where provided)
normal size spare wheel, can be supplied on request;
for its use, follow what indicated below.
VAN versions are fitted as standard with a spare
wheel with steel rim of the same type and size as the
standard wheels mounted on the car.
Wheel changing and correct use of the jack and space-
saver spare wheel call for some precautions as listed
below.
WARNINGAlert other drivers that the car is stationary in compliance with local regulations:
hazard warning lights, warning triangle, etc. Any passengers on board should leave the
car, especially if it is heavily laden. Passengers should stay away from oncoming traffic
while the wheel is being changed. If parked on a slope or rough surface, chock the
wheels with wedges or other suitable devices to prevent the car from rolling.
