IMPORTANT The steering column is not
strong enough to withstand shocks trans-
mitted from the front wheels during tow-
ing. Always unlock the steering wheel be-
fore towing.
4-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD)
Your vehicle should be towed under one
of the following conditions:
❒With all four wheels on a flat-bed truck.
❒With the front or rear wheels lifted and
a dolly under the other wheels.
IMPORTANT Towing your vehicle with
front and/ or rear wheels on the ground
can result in damage to the automatic
transaxle and/ or the 4WD drive system.
IF THE STARTER DOES
NOT OPERATE
❒Try turning the ignition switch to the
“START” position with the headlights
turned on to determine the battery
condition. If the headlights go exces-
sively dim or go off, it usually means
that either the battery is flat or the bat-
tery terminal contact is poor. Recharge
the battery or correct battery terminal
contact as necessary.
❒If the headlights remain bright, check
the fuses. If the reason for failure of the
starter is not obvious, there may be a
major electrical problem. Have the ve-
hicle inspected by your authorized
Fiat Dealership.
TOWING
If you need to have your vehicle towed,
contact a professional service. Your deal-
er can provide you with detailed towing
instructions.
IMPORTANT To help avoid damage to
your vehicle during towing, proper equip-
ment and towing procedures must be
used.
2-WHEEL DRIVE (2WD)
MANUAL TRANSAXLE
Manual transaxle vehicles may be towed
using either of the following methods.
❒From the front, with the front wheels
lifted and the rear wheels on the
ground. Before towing, make sure that
the parking brake is released.
❒From the rear, with the rear wheels lift-
ed and the front wheels on the ground,
provided the steering and drivetrain are
in operational condition. Before tow-
ing, make sure that transaxle is in neu-
tral, the steering wheel is unlocked (the
ignition key should be in the “ACC” po-
sition), and the steering wheel is se-
cured with a clamping device designed
for towing service.

When washing the vehicle, park it where
direct sunlight does not fall on it and fol-
low the instructions below:
Flush the underside of body and wheel
housings with pressurized water to remove
mud and debris. Use plenty of water.
IMPORTANT When washing the vehicle,
avoid directing steam or hot water of
more than 80°C (176°F) on plastic parts.
To avoid damaging engine components, do
not use pressurized water in the engine
compartment.Rinse the body to loosen the dirt. Remove
dirt and mud from the body exterior with
running water. You may use a soft sponge
or brush. Do not use hard materials which
can scratch the paint or plastic. Remem-
ber that the headlight covers or lenses are
made of plastic in many cases.
IMPORTANT To avoid damage to the
paint or plastic surface, do not wipe the
dirt off without ample water. Be sure to
follow above procedure.
Wash the entire exterior with a mild de-
tergent or vehicle wash soap using a
sponge or soft cloth. The sponge or cloth
should be frequently soaked in the soap
solution.
IMPORTANT When using a commercial
vehicle wash product, observe the cau-
tions specified by the manufacturer. Nev-
er use strong household detergents or
soaps.
– Never attempt to wash
and wax your vehicle with
the engine running.
– When cleaning the underside of the
body and fender, where there may
be sharp-edged parts, you should
wear gloves and a long sleeved shirt
to protect your hands and arms from
being cut.
– After washing your vehicle, care-
fully test the brakes before driving to
make sure they have maintained
their normal effectiveness.
