WARNING
This procedure must be performed by
experts because incorrect actions may
cause considerable electrical discharge.
Furthermore, batter y fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Keep naked flames and lit cigarettes away from
the battery. Do not create sparks.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or
driving downhill. This could cause fuel to flow into
the catalytic converter and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the brake booster
and the power steering system are not active until
the engine is started, so you will need to apply much
more force to the brake pedal or steering wheel.
CHANGING A TYREThe vehicle is originally equipped with the Fix&Go
automatic quick tyre repair kit (see instructions
in the next chapter). As an alternative, the vehicle
may have a normal-sized spare wheel.
Changing the wheel and correct use of the jack and
spare wheel require some precautions, which are
listed below.
WARNING
The spare wheel (for versions/markets,
where provided) is specific for your
vehicle.Therefore, it must not be used on other
models. Do not use spare wheels of other
models on your vehicle.The spare wheel must
be used only in an emergency. Use of the spare
wheel must kept to the minimum necessar y.

WARNING
Use your hazard lights, warning triangle,
etc . to show that your vehicle is
stationary according to the regulations in force.
Passengers should get out of the vehicle,
particularly if it is heavily loaded, and wait for
the wheel to be changed away from the traffic .
If you are on a slope or uneven surface, place
wedges or other suitable objects under the
wheels to secure the vehicle. Have the standard
wheel repaired and refitted as soon as possible.
Do not apply grease to the bolt threads before
fitting: they could unscrew themselves.
WARNING
Use the jack only to replace wheels on
the vehicle with which it is supplied
or on other vehicles of the same model. Never
use the jack for other purposes, such as lifting
other models. Never use the jack to carr y out
repairs under the vehicle. Incorrect positioning
of the jack may cause the raised vehicle 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 tamper with the inflation valve. Never
introduce tools of any kind between rim and
tyre. Check tyre and spare wheel pressures
regularly, complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.
Important notes:
❒the jack weighs 1.76 kg;
❒the jack requires no adjustment;
❒the jack cannot be repaired; if it breaks, it must be
replaced with a new one of the same type;
❒no tool other than the cranking handle may be
fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel proceed as follows:
❒stop the vehicle in a position where it is not a
danger for other traffic and where you can replace
the wheel safely. The ground should be flat and
solid;
❒stop the engine off and pull up the handbrake;
❒engage first gear or reverse;
❒wear the reflective safety jacket (compulsory by
law) before getting out of the vehicle;

❒make sure that switch E fig. 131 of the compressor
is at 0 (off ), start the engine, insert plug D fig. 130
in the cigar lighter socket and turn the compressor
on by setting switch E fig. 131 to I (on). Inflate
the tyre to the pressure specified in the "Cold tyre
pressures" paragraph in the "Technical
specifications" section. For a more accurate
reading, check pressure gauge F fig. 131 with the
compressor off;
❒if after 5 minutes it is still impossible to reach at
least 1.5 bar, disengage compressor from valve
and unplug it from the socket, then move the car
forth for approx. ten metres in order to distribute
the sealing fluid inside the tyre evenly, then repeat
the inflation operation;❒if after this operation it is still impossible after 5
minutes to reach at least 1.8 bar, do not start
driving since the tyre is excessively damaged and
the quick tyre repair kit cannot guarantee suitable
sealing, contact Fiat Dealership;
❒if you do reach the tyre pressure specified in the
“Cold tyre pressures” paragraph of the “Technical
specifications” section, continue your journey
immediately;
WARNING
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. Do not accelerate or

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.
❒if, on the other hand, the pressure is at least 1.8
bar, restore the correct pressure (with the engine
running and the handbrake applied) and resume
driving;
❒drive with the utmost care to the nearest Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
Remember to inform the workshop that
the tyre has been treated with a quick
repair kit . Give the instruction booklet to the
personnel charged with handling the treated
tyre.FOR CHECKING AND RESTORING
PRESSURE ONLY
The compressor may also be used for restoring
pressure only.
Release the quick coupling and connect directly to
the tyre valve fig. 132; in this way, the cylinder will
not be connected to the compressor and no sealing
fluid will be injected.
