❒Remove the hub-cap by using the tool
supplied with the vehicle. Unscrew the
anti-theft bolt (versions with alloy
wheel rims) (one per wheel) by using
the tool supplied with the vehicle and
then the remaining bolts so as to re-
move the wheel;
❒Make sure the contact surfaces between
spare wheel and hub are clean so that
the fastening bolts will not come loose.
Fit the spare wheel making one of the
holes C-fig. 6coincide with pin B;
❒Tighten the 5 fastening bolts;
❒Turn the jack handle to lower the ve-
hicle and remove the jack;
❒Fasten bolts completely, working in a
criss-cross fashion as shown in fig. 7;
❒Refit the wheel cap (for versions/ mar-
kets, where provided).When you have finished:
❒Stove the flat tyre into the proper hous-
ing under the floor and tighten the lock-
ing bolt;
❒Refit the handle and the jack into the rel-
evant retaining system;
❒Refit the tool retaining system by tight-
ening it into the relevant seat by means
of the locking device.
IMPORTANT Check the inflation pres-
sure of the tyres and the spare wheel reg-
ularly.IMPORTANT You will need to change the
set of bolts if you want to change the type
of wheels fitted (alloy rims instead of steel
rims, and vice versa). You will have to
change the entire set of fastening bolts
with another set of suitably sized bolts.
You should keep the bolts and spare
wheel in case you decide to use the orig-
inal type of wheel later on.

QUICK TYRE REPAIR
KIT FIX & GO
The quick tyre repair kit consists of a
compressor and a bottle (containing seal-
ing fluid).
Using the kit
1. Mark the flat tyre on the speed limit-
ing sticker. Stick the label on the steer-
ing wheel as a reminder that the car has
a temporary wheel.
2. Fix the bottle 1on the compressor 2.
3. Connect the bottle 1to the valve of the
tyre to be repaired.
4. Properly unfold the compressor pipe
before connecting it to the bottle.
5. Connect the electric wire to one of the
12 V vehicle sockets.
6. By pushing the button A, operate the
compressor until the tyre pressure
reaches 2.0 bar. If such pressure cannot
be reached, the tyre is irrepairable.7. Disconnect and store the compressor.
8. Drive at low speed for a few kilometres
to seal the puncture.
9. Use the compressor to adjust the pres-
sure following the recommended pro-
cedure for the vehicle and check that
the puncture is correctly sealed (no
pressure loss).
10. Drive at low speed (80 km/h). The
tyre must be checked and repaired by
a specialist as soon as possible.Once used, the bottle can be stored in the
plastic bag supplied with the kit to prevent
the fluid from staining the vehicle.
Do not dispose of the bottle in the envi-
ronment after use; have it recycled by a
Fiat Dealership or a designated body.
The bottle is available at every Fiat Deal-
ership.

WHEN NEEDING TO
CHANGE A BULB
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
❒When a light is not working, check that
the corresponding fuse is intact before
changing a bulb. For the location of fus-
es, refer to the paragraph “If a fuse
blows” in this section;
❒ Before changing a bulb check the con-
tacts for oxidation;
❒ Burnt bulbs must be replaced by oth-
ers of the same type and power;
❒ Always check the height of the head-
light beam after changing a bulb.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
may be lightly misted over: this is not a
fault but a natural fact due to low tem-
perature and level of air humidity. It will
disappear as soon the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside
the headlights means water infiltration,
therefore contact Fiat Dealership.
TYPES OF BULBS
Various types of bulbs are fitted to your
vehicle:
AAll glass bulbs: these are pressed on.
Pull to remove.BBayonet type bulbs: to remove this
type of bulb from its holder, press
the bulb and turn it counter-clock-
wise.
CTubular bulbs: release them from
their contacts to remove.
DHalogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place. Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent bulb
is touched with the fingers, its
lighting intensity is reduced and life of
the bulb may be compromised. If
touched accidentally, rub the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and al-
low to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (elec-
tronic control units) carried out in-
correctly and without bearing the fea-
tures of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which, if broken,
may cause small fragments of glass to
be projected outwards.

IF A FUSE BLOWS
GENERAL FEATURES
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 A- fig. 21must be intact. If not, re-
place the fuse with one of the same amp
rating (same colour).
Bundamaged fuse
Cfuse with damaged filament.
In order to substitute a fuse, it is neces-
sary to use the supplied nippers
A-fig. 21/asituated, together with the
spare fuses, behind removable door B.
fig. 21F0P0236m
Never change a fuse with
another with a higher amp
rating: DANGER OF FIRE.
WARNING
Never replace a broken fuse
with metal wires or anything
else.
If a general fuse (MEGA-
FUSE, MIDI-FUSE, MAXI-
FUSE) cuts in, do not attempt any re-
pair and contact Fiat Dealership. Be-
fore changing a fuse, check the igni-
tion key has been removed and that
all the other electric devices have
been turned off/disabled.
WARNING
If a general protection fuse
for safety systems (air bag
system, braking system), power unit
systems (engine system, transmission
system) or steering system is triggered,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
If a fuse blows again, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
