REPLACING FUSESGENERAL FEATURES fig. 165
Fuses protect the electric system: they cut in (i.e. they
blow) in the event of a failure or improper action on the
system.
When a device does not work, check the efficiency of its
fuse: the filament A must be intact. If it is, replace the blown
fuse with another with the same amperage (same colour).
B undamaged fuse.
C fuse with damaged filament.
To facilitate fuse replacement, use the pliers D hooked
to the fuse-box on the dashboard left-hand side.

Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP without removing
it. The steering column will automatically lock
when the key is removed and the wheels cannot
be steered.
WARNING
When towing, remember that without the
help of the servo-brake and electric pow-
er steering, a greater effort is required on the ped-
al and steering wheel. Do not use flexible cables
when towing and avoid jerky movements. While
towing, make sure not to damage parts in contact
with the car. When towing the car, comply with
the regulations of the Highway Code about tow-
ing, both concerning the towing device and the
driving behaviour on the road.
WARNING
During towing, never start the engine.

CAR MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICINGCorrect servicing is essential in guaranteeing a long life for
the car under the best conditions.
This is why Fiat has programmed a series of checks and
servicing operations every 20,000 km.
It is however important to remember that scheduled ser-
vicing does not completely cover all the car’s requirements:
also in the initial run-in period before 20,000 km service
coupon and later, between each servicing interval, ordi-
nary care is still required, such as for example routine
check and topping-up the level of fluids, tyre pressure
check, etc...
CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing coupons are specified
by the Manufacturer. Failure to have them carried out may
invalidate the warranty.
Schedule servicing can be carried out by any Fiat Dealership,
at pre-established times.
If during each operation, in addition to the ones pro-
grammed, the need arises for further replacements or re-
pairs, these may only be carried out with the express
agreement of the Customer.
IMPORTANT It is advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership
in the event of any minor operating failure, without wait-
ing for the next service coupon.
If the car is used frequently for towing a trailer, the inter-
val between services should be reduced.

Using the battery when the fluid is too low
can damage it irreparably and generate
a risk of explosion.
WARNING
CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a genuine spare part
having the same specifications.
If a battery with different specifications is fitted, the ser-
vice intervals given in the “Scheduled Servicing Pro-
gramme” in this chapter will no longer be valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer’s instructions for main-
tenance.
Incorrect assembly of electric and electronic
devices may cause severe damage to your
car. Contact a Fiat Dealership if you want
to install accessories (alarms, mobile phone, etc...):
they will suggest the most suitable devices and ad-
vise you if a higher capacity battery needs to be
installed.
If the car must remain unused for a long
time at very low temperature, remove the
battery and carry it to a warm place, to avoid
freezing.
WARNING
Batteries contain substances that can be
very dangerous for the environment. It is
advisable to have battery replaced by a
Fiat Dealership where it will be disposed respecting
the environment and according to law prescription.
USEFUL ADVICE FOR EXTENDING
THE LIFE OF YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and make it last longer, ob-
serve the following instructions:❒
when you park the car, ensure the doors, tailgate and
bonnet are closed properly, to prevent any light switch-
ing-on inside the passenger’s compartment;
When you must perform any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with the special goggles.

WHEELS AND TYRESCheck the pressure of each tyre, including the space-saver
wheel, approximately every two weeks and before long
journeys: the pressure should be checked with the tyre
rested and cold.
While driving the car, the pressure increases under stan-
dard conditions: for the correct tyre inflation pressure, see
“Wheels” in “Technical specifications” chapter.
Incorrect pressure causes abnormal tyre wear fig. 185:
A standard pressure: tread evenly worn.
B low pressure: tread particularly worn at the edges.
C high pressure: tread particularly worn in the centre.
❒
the ceiling lights must be off. The car is however pro-
vided with an automatic system for switching-off inter-
nal lights;
❒
do not keep accessories (e.g. sound system, hazard
warning lights, etc...) switched on for a long time when
the engine is not running;
❒
before performing any operation on the electric system,
disconnect the battery negative cable;
❒
battery terminals shall always be perfectly tightened.
IMPORTANT If the charge level remains for a long time
under 50%, the battery is damaged by sulphation, reduc-
ing its capacity and starting attitude.
The battery will also be more at risk of freezing (e.g. al-
ready at −10 °C). Refer to the paragraph “Car inactivity”
in “Starting and driving” if the car is left parked for a long
time.
If after buying the car, you want to install electric acces-
sories which require permanent electric supply (alarm, etc.)
or accessories influencing the electrical supply require-
ments, contact Fiat Dealership whose skilled personnel, in
addition to suggesting the most suitable devices included
in Lineaccessori Fiat, will evaluate the overall electric ab-
sorption, checking whether the car’s electric system is ca-
pable of withstanding the load required, or whether it
should be integrated with a more powerful battery.
Since these devices continue absorbing energy even when
the ignition key is off, they gradually run down the battery.

❒
to allow even wear between the front and rear tyres,
it is advisable to change them over every 10–15 thou-
sand kilometres, keeping them on the same side of the
car so as not to reverse the direction of rotation. The tyres must be replaced when the tread is less than
1.6 mm thick. In all cases, follow the laws in force in the
country where you are driving.
IMPORTANT NOTES
❒
Avoid braking suddenly, burning starts and violent
knocks against curbs, potholes or other obstacles if pos-
sible. Driving for long stretches over bumpy roads can
damage the tyres;
❒
check the tyres regularly for cuts on the sides, swelling
or irregular tread wear. Contact a Fiat Dealership if re-
quired;
❒
avoid overloading the car when travelling: this may cause
serious damage to the wheels and tyres;
❒
if a tyre is punctured, stop the vehicle immediately
and change it to avoid damage to the tyre, the rim, the
suspensions and the steering system;
❒
a tyre will age even if it is not used much. Cracks in
the tread and on the sidewalls are a sign of ageing. Have
the tyres checked by skilled personnel if they have been
fitted for longer than six years. Remember to check
also the space-saver wheel very carefully;
❒
in case of replacement, always fit new tyres, avoiding
those with an unknown origin;
❒
if a tyre is replaced, also change the inflation valve;
Remember that the road holding qualities
of your car also depend on the correct in-
flation pressure of the tyres.
WARNING
If the pressure is too low the tyre will
get overheated, with the risk of serious
damage.
WARNING
Avoid moving the tyres from the right side
of the car to the left side and vice versa.
WARNING
Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring to use temperatures
exceeding 150 °C. The mechanical properties of
the wheels could be impaired.

spraying of protective plastic material in the more ex-
posed points: underdoor, inner mudguard parts, edges,
etc...;
❒
Use of “open” boxed sections to prevent condensation
and pockets of moisture which could cause triggering
rust inside.
BODY AND UNDERBODY
WARRANTY
Your car is covered by warranty against perforation due
to rust of any original element of the structure or body.
For the general terms of this warranty, refer to the War-
ranty Booklet.
ADVICE FOR PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paint
Paintwork does not only serve an aesthetic purpose, but
also protects the underlying sheet metal.
Touch-up abrasions and scratches immediately to prevent
the formation of rust. Only use genuine spare paint prod-
ucts for touch-ups (see “Bodywork paint identification plate”
in the “Technical Specifications” chapter).
Standard maintenance of paintwork consists in washing the
vehicle; its frequency depends on the conditions and envi-
ronment where the vehicle is used. For example, in highly
polluted areas, or if the roads are sprayed with salt, it is
advisable to wash the car more frequently.
BODYWORKPROTECTION FROM ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS
The main causes of corrosion are the following:❒
atmospheric pollution;
❒
salty air and humidity (coastal areas, or hot humid cli-
mates);
❒
seasonal environmental conditions.
Not to be underestimated is also the abrasive action of
wind-borne atmospheric dust and sand, along with mud
and gravel raised by other vehicles.
On your car, Fiat implemented the best manufacturing
technologies to effectively protect the bodywork against
corrosion.
These include:
❒
painting products and systems which give the car par-
ticular resistance to corrosion and abrasion;
❒
use of galvanised (or pretreated) steel sheets, with high
resistance to corrosion;
❒
spraying the underbody, engine compartment, wheel
housing internal parts and other parts with highly pro-
tective wax products;
