on, but it should go out as soon as the en-
gine is started. The initial turning on indi-
cates that the warning light is working prop-
erly. If the warning light stays on or turns
on when travelling:
❒glowing steadily: means a fault in the
supply/ignition system which could
cause high emissions at the exhaust,
possible lack of performance, poor
handling and high consumption levels.
On certain versions the dedicated mes-
sage is displayed.
In these conditions it is possible to con-
tinue driving without however requiring
heavy effort or high speed from the en-

warning light on may cause damages. Con-
tact Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
The warning light goes off if the fault dis-
appears, but it is still stored by the system.

BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine (by pushing,
towing or coasting downhill).
This could cause fuel to flow into the cat-
alytic converter and damage it beyond re-
pair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the servo-
brake and electrical power steering sys-
tem (where provided) 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.

IN AN
EMERGENCY
The space-saver spare wheel
(where provided) is specific
to your car, do not use it on other
models, or use the spare wheel of oth-
er models on your car. The space-
saver spare wheel shall only be used
in an emergency. It shall only be used
for the distance necessary to reach a
service point and the car speed shall
not exceed 80 km/h. The spare wheel
has an orange sticker that summaris-
es the main cautions for use and lim-
itations. The sticker should never be
removed or covered. Never fit a wheel
cap on a space-saver spare wheel.
The sticker gives the following infor-
mation in four languages: Caution!
For temporary use only! 80 km/h max!
Replace by normal wheel as soon as
possible. Do not cover this label in
use.
If you change the type of wheel (al-
loy rims instead of steel rims) you will
have to change the entire set of fas-
tening bolts with another set of suit-
ably sized bolts.
WARNINGIF A TYRE
IS PUNCTURED
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The car can be delivered (upon re-
quest/where provided) with standard
spare wheel or space saver spare wheel;
see changing instructions on the following
paragraphs.
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and space-saver spare wheel call for
some precautions as listed below.

CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
IN AN
EMERGENCY
Alert other drivers that the
car is stationary in compli-
ance 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 on-
coming traffic while the wheel is be-
ing changed. If parked on a slope or
rough surface, chock the wheels with
wedges or other suitable devices.
WARNING
When driving with a space-
saver spare wheel fitted, the
driving performance of the car
changes. Avoid accelerating or brak-
ing sharply, abrupt turns of fast cor-
nerings. The life of a spare wheel is
approx. 3000 km, after this distance
it should be replaced with another of
the same type. Never attempt to fit
a conventional tyre on a rim designed
for use as a space-saver spare wheel.
Have the punctured wheel repaired
and refitted as soon as possible. Two
or more space-saver spare wheels
should never be used together. Do not
grease the threads of bolts before in-
stalling them: they might slip out.
WARNING
The jack shall only be used
for changing wheels on the
car with which it is provided or on
cars of the same model. It must not
be used for other purposes such as for
instance raising cars of other models.
In no case should it be used for repairs
under the car. Incorrect positioning
of the jack may cause the jacked car
to fall. Do not use the jack for high-
er capacities than stated on its label.
Snow chains cannot be fitted to the
space-saver spare wheel. So, if a front
(drive) wheel is punctured and chains
are needed, a rear wheel should be
fitted to the front of the car and the
spare wheel should be fitted to the
rear. This way with two normal dri-
ve wheels, snow chains can be fitted
to them to solve an emergency.
WARNING
Fasten the wheel cap cor-
rectly to prevent the wheel
from coming free in motion. Never
tamper with the inflation valve. Nev-
er place tools between the rim and
tyre. Check and restore, if required,
the pressure of tyres and spare wheel
to the values given in section “Tech-
nical specifications”.
WARNING
Please note:
❒ the jack weight is 1,76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired and in the
event of a fault it must be replaced by
another original one;
❒no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.

vice Iand raise the car until the wheel
is a few centimetres from the ground.
When turning the jack handle make
sure that it can be used easily and take
care not to scrape your hand against
the ground. The moving parts of the
jack (screw and joints) may also cause
injury if touched. Clean off any grease;
❒remove the wheel cap (where provid-
ed) after loosening the three fastening
bolts then, loosen the fourth bolt L-
fig. 6and remove the wheel;
❒make sure the contact surfaces be-
tween spare wheel and hub are clean

IMPORTANT Do not use inner tubes
with tubeless tyres. Check the inflation
pressure of the tyres and the spare wheel
regularly.
IMPORTANT You will need to change the
set of bolts if you want to change the type
of wheels fitted (alloy rims instead of steel
rims, and vice versa). You will have to
change the entire set of fastening bolts
with another set of suitably sized bolts and
adopt a specific spare wheel having differ-
ent building characteristics.
You should keep the bolts and spare
wheel in case you decide to use the orig-
inal type of wheel later on. ❒fasten the three other bolts with the
wrench provided;
❒lower the car and remove the jack;
❒fasten bolts completely, working in a
