❒make sure that the compressor
switch is in position 0 (off), start the
engine, plug into the power socket in
the central tunnel and operate the
compressor, turning switch A to
position I (on);
❒inflate the tyre to the pressure
specified in the "Inflation pressure"
paragraph in the "Technical
specifications" section. Check tyre
pressure on gauge B with compressor
off to obtain a more precise reading;
❒if after five minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 1.8 bar, disengage
the compressor from the valve and
power socket, then move the vehicle
forwards by approx. ten metres in order
to distribute the sealing fluid inside the
tyre evenly, then repeat the inflation
operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannot
reach at least 1.8 bar after 5 minutes
from switching on the compressor,
do not resume driving but contact a
Fiat Dealership;
❒after driving for about 10 minutes
stop and check the tyre pressure again;
engage the handbrakeand park
safely;❒if a pressure value of at least 1.8 bar
is detected, restore the correct
pressure (with the engine running and
the handbrake engaged), resume
driving and drive with great care to the
nearest Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
147)Give the instruction brochure to the
personnel charged with handling the
tyre treated with the quick tyre repair kit.
148)Punctures on the sides of the tyre
cannot be repaired. Do not use the quick
tyre repair kit if the tyre is damaged as
a result of driving with it deflated.
149)If the wheel rim has been damaged
(bent so as to cause air to leak), the wheel
cannot be repaired. Do not remove foreign
bodies (screws or nails) from the tyre.
150)Do not use the compressor for more
than 20 consecutive minutes. Risk of
overheating. Tyres repaired with the quick
tyre repair kit must only be used
temporarily, as the kit is not suitable for a
definitive repair.

IN AN EMERGENCY

151)The information required by current
regulations, regarding the chemical
substances for the protection of human
health and the environment and on the safe
use of the sealing fluid, are on the
packaging label. Compliance with the
indications on the label is an essential
condition to ensure the safety and
the effectiveness of the product.
Remember to carefully read the label
before use; the user of the product
is responsible for any damages caused by
improper use. The sealing fluid has an
expiry date. Replace the bottle if the
sealant has expired.
152)Put on the protective gloves provided
together with the quick tyre repair kit.
153)Apply the adhesive label where it can
be easily seen 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. Avoid
sudden acceleration or braking.
154)If the pressure has fallen below 1.8
bar, do not drive any further: the quick tyre
repair kit cannot guarantee the correct
hold because the tyre is too damaged.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
155)Always indicate that the tyre was
repaired using the quick tyre repair kit. Give
the leaflet to the personnel charged with
handling the tyre treated with the tyre
repair kit.

can be repaired if the damage does not
exceed 4 mm on the tread and on the
shoulder of the tyre.
WARNING
3)Dispose of the bottle and the sealant
properly. Have them disposed of in
compliance with national and local
regulations.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, a jump starting can
be performed using the battery and
the cables of another vehicle, or using a
booster battery.
IMPORTANT
When a booster battery is used, comply
with the utilisation and precaution
instructions specified by the producer.
Do not use the booster battery or
any other source of external supply with
a voltage above 12 V: the battery, the
starter, the alternator and the electrical
system of the vehicle could be
damaged.
Do not attempt jump starting if the
battery is frozen. The battery could
break and explode!
PREPARATION TO JUMP
STARTING
156) 157)
53) 54)
IMPORTANT The positive terminal (+) of
the battery is shielded by a protective
cover. Lift the cover to access the
positive terminal.
Proceed as follows:❒engage the handbrake, move the
Dualogic gear lever to P (Park) or,
for versions with manual gearbox, to
neutral and bring the ignition key to
STOP;
❒switch off all the other electrical
devices in the vehicle;
❒if another vehicle is ready for jump
starting, park the vehicle within the
reach of the cables to be used for
starting, operate the handbrake and
make sure that the ignition is
deactivated.
IMPORTANT Avoid contact between
the two vehicles since this could cause
a connection to earth and may result
in serious injury to any people nearby.
PROCEDURE FOR JUMP
STARTING
IMPORTANT If the procedure below is
carried out incorrectly, it can cause
severe injury to people or damage the
recharging system of one or both
vehicles. Carefully follow the
instructions given below.
Cable connection
Proceed as follows to carry out a jump
starting:
❒connect one end of the cable used
for positive (+) to the positive terminal
(+) of the vehicle with flat battery;

Versions with Dualogic gearbox
Make sure that the gearbox is in neutral
(N) (checking that the vehicle moves
when pushed) and proceed in the same
way as for towing a normal vehicle
with a manual gearbox. If the gearbox
cannot be put in neutral, do not tow the
vehicle and contact a Fiat Dealership.
Panda Cross and Panda 4x4
versions
The vehicle can only be towed in one of
the following ways (and always with
the engine off, gear set to neutral and
handbrake released):
❒with all the wheels on the road
surface;
❒with the front (or rear) wheels raised
or resting on an emergency vehicle and
the rear (or front) wheels resting on a
specific trolley;❒loaded on the flatbed of the rescue
vehicle with all the wheels on the
flatbed.
IMPORTANT For Panda Cross versions,
the tow hooks A fig. 118 the vehicle is
equipped with can only be used for
towing it in an emergency.
WARNING
159)Before starting towing operations,
turn the ignition 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.
160)Before tightening the ring clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make sure
that the ring is fully fastened in the housing
before towing the vehicle.161)Whilst towing, remember that as the
assistance of the brake servo and the
electric power steering is not available,
greater force needs to be exerted on the
brake pedal and more effort is required on
the steering wheel. Do not use flexible
cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. While towing, make sure that
the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing
the vehicle, you must comply with all
specific traffic regulations, both in terms of
the towing device and behaviour on the
road. Do not start the engine while towing
the vehicle.
162)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for
short distances using an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway
code (a rigid bar), to move the vehicle on
the road in readiness for towing or
transporting via a breakdown vehicle. Tow
rings MUST NOT be used to tow vehicles
off the road or where there are obstacles
and/or for towing operations using cables
or other non-rigid devices. In compliance
with the above conditions, towing must
take place with the two vehicles (one
towing, the other towed) aligned as much
as possible along the same centre line.
163)Do not use tow hooks for securing the
vehicle on ships.
