Important notes:
❒the jack weight is 1.76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired. If it breaks it must be replaced with a new jack;
❒no tool other than its cranking devicemay be fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel proceed
as follows:
❒stop the car where it is not a danger to other road users and you can replace
the wheel safely. The ground should be
flat and solid;
❒turn the engine off and pull up the hand-brake.
❒engage first gear or reverse;
❒ wear the reflective safety jacket (com- pulsory by law in certain countries) be-
fore getting out of the car;
❒open the boot and lift the carpet or re-
move the cargo box (for versions/mar-
kets, where provided);
❒unscrew the locking device A-fig. 2;
❒take out the tool container C-fig. 2 and
put it alongside the wheel to be
changed;
❒take out the spare wheel B-fig. 2;
fig. 2F0M0188m
The jack may be used to re-
place wheels only on the car
which it equips or other cars of the
same model. Never use the jack for
other purposes, such as lifting other
models. Never use the jack to carry
out repairs under the car. Incorrect
positioning of the jack may cause the
car to fall. Do not use the jack for
loads higher than the one shown on
its label.
WARNING
Incorrect hub cap assembly
may cause it to come off
when the car is moving. Never tam-
per with the inflation valve. Never in-
troduce tools of any kind between the
rim and the tyre. Check tyre and
spare wheel pressure regularly, refer-
ring to the values shown in the “Tech-
nical specifications” section.

❒ make sure that switch D-fig. 10 of the
compressor is in position 0 (off), start
the engine, plug into the nearest sock-
et E-fig. 11 and activate the compres-
sor by turning switch D-fig. 10to po-
sition I(on). Inflate the tyre to the
pressure specified in the “Inflation
pressure” paragraph in the “Technical
specifications” section. For a more accurate reading, check
pressure gauge F-fig. 10
with the com-
pressor off;
❒if after 5 minutes you cannot reach at least 1.5 bar, unplug the compressor
from the valve and the socket, then
move the car forward about ten metres
in order to distribute the sealant inside
the tyre evenly, then repeat the infla-
tion operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannotreach at least 1.8 bar after 5 minutes,
do not resume driving because the tyre
is too damaged and the fast tyre repair
kit cannot guarantee suitable sealing.
Contact a Fiat Dealership;
❒if you do reach the tyre pressure spec-ified in the “Inflation pressure” para-
graph in the “Technical specifications”
section, start driving immediately;

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, particular-
ly on bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h.
Do not accelerate or brake suddenly.
WARNING
❒after driving for about 10 minutes, stop and check the tyre pressure again; re-
member to put on the handbrake ;
If the pressure has fallen be-
low 1.8 bar, do not drive any
further: the Fix&Go automatic quick
tyre repair kit cannot guarantee
proper hold because the tyre is too
damaged. Contact a Fiat Dealership.

FOR CHECKING AND
RESTORING PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor may also be used for
restoring pressure only. Release the fast
coupling and connect it directly to the tyre
valve fig. 13; in this way, the cylinder will
not be connected to the compressor and
no sealant will be injected. CYLINDER REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
To replace the cylinder, proceed as fol-
lows:
❒disconnect
A-fig. 14;
❒turn the cylinder anticlockwise to lift
it out;
❒insert the new cylinder and turn itclockwise;
❒connect Ato the cylinder and fit the
transparent tube Binto its allocated
space.
Remember to inform the
workshop that the tyre has
been treated with a quick repair kit.

CHANGING A FUSE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action if
there is a fault or improper action on the
system.
Check the state of the corresponding fuse
when a device does not work: the filament
A-fig. 34 must be intact. If it is not, re-
place the blown fuse with a new one of the
same amperage (same colour).
B undamaged fuse fig. 34
C fuse with damaged filament fig. 34.
fig. 34F0M0236m
Do not replace one fuse with
another of greater amper-
age; FIRE HAZARD.
WARNING
Never replace a damaged fuse
with metal wires or other
recycled material.
If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-FUSE,
MAXI-FUSE) is activated, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
If the same fuse blows again,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
Remove the key from the ig-
nition and switch off or dis-
connect all devices before replacing
a fuse.

Do not start the engine while
the car is being towed.
WARNING
Clean the threaded housing
carefully before fastening
the ring. Make sure that the ring is se-
curely fastened before towing the car.
WARNING
Release the steering wheel
lock before towing (see “Ig-
nition device” in “Dashboard and
controls”). The brake booster and
power steering will not work while the
vehicle is being towed. You will there-
fore need to apply more force to the
brake pedal and steering wheel. Do
not use bendy cables for towing and
avoid jerking. Make sure not to dam-
age parts in contact with the car
while towing. Respect the rules of the
highway code when towing the car,
specifically in relation to the towing
device and road conduct.
WARNING
The front and rear tow
hooks should be used only
for emergencies on the road. You are
allowed to tow the car for short dis-
tances 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 hooks MUST NOT be used to
tow vehicles off the road or where
there are obstacles and/or for tow-
ing operations using cables or other
non-rigid devices.
Respecting the above conditions,
towing must take place with two ve-
hicles (one towing, the other towed)
aligned as much as possible along the
same centre line.
