IF A FUSE BLOWS
GENERAL fig. 45
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action (i.e.
it cuts off) mainly due to a fault or im-
proper action on the system.
When a device does not work, check the
efficiency of its fuse: the conductor ele-
ment Amust be intact. If not, replace the
fuse with one of the same amp rating
(same colour).
Bundamaged fuse.
Cfuse with damaged filament.
To facilitate fuse replacement, use the pli-
ers Dhooked to the fusebox on the in-
strument panel left-hand side.
Refer to the tables on the following pages
to identify the protection fuse.
❒open the bulb cover B-fig. 44and re-
place the pressure-fitted bulb C;
❒refit the cover Bon the transparent;
❒refit correctly the light pressing one
side and then the other until the lock-
ing click is heard.
fig. 44F0G0103mfig. 45F0G0087m
Never replace a fuse with
metal wires or anything else.
Never replace a fuse with
another with a higher amp
rating; DANGER OF FIRE.
WARNING
If a general fuse (MEGA-
FUSE, MIDI-FUSE, MAXI-
FUSE) cuts in, do not attempt any re-
pair and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
If a fuse blows again, contact
a Fiat Dealership.

Before starting to tow, turn
the ignition key to MAR and
then to STOP. Do not remove the
key. If the key is removed, the steer-
ing lock engages automatically re-
sulting in the impossibility to steer the
wheels.
WARNING
When towing, remember
that without the help of the
servobrake and power steering, a
greater effort is required on the ped-
al and steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables for towing and avoid
jerks. During towing operations make
sure that fastening the joint to the car
does not damage the components in
contact with it. When towing the car,
you must comply with the specific
traffic regulations regarding the tow
ring and how to tow on the road.
WARNING
Do not start the engine
when towing the car.

IMPORTANT - Air cleaner
If the car is used on dusty roads change
the air cleaner more frequently than the
indications in the “Service schedule”. If in
doubt as to how often the engine oil and
air cleaner should be changed according
to how you use the car, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
IMPORTANT - Pollen filter
If the car is used frequently in dusty or
heavily polluted environments it is advis-
able to replace the filtering element more
frequently; in particular it should be re-
placed if a reduction of the amount of air
admitted to the passenger compartment
is noted.
IMPORTANT - Battery
The charge in the battery should be
checked at the start of winter to limit the
risk of electrolyte freezing.This check should be carried out more
frequently if the car is used mainly for
short trips, or if it is fitted with accessories
that permanently absorb electricity even
with the ignition key removed, especially
in the case of after market accessories. If
the car is used in hot climates or particu-
larly harsh conditions it is wise to check
the level of the battery fluid (electrolyte)
more frequently than specified in the “Ser-
vice schedule”. IMPORTANT - Engine oil
Should prevailing use of the car be under
one of the following specially heavy con-
ditions:
❒ trailer or caravan towing;
❒dusty roads;
❒short distances (less than 7- 8 km) re-
peated and with external temperatures
below zero;
❒ frequently idling engines or long dis-
tance low speed driving (e.g. taxis or
door-to-door deliveries) or in case of
a long term inactivity;
replace engine oil more frequently than
required on “Service Schedule”.
IMPORTANT - Diesel filter
The possibility of topping up with diesel
fuel not complying with EN590 European
Norm might make it necessary to replace
the filter more frequently than indicated
in the “Service Schedule”.
