Do not carry out this
procedure if you lack ex-
perience; if it is not done
correctly it can cause very in-
tense electrical discharges. In ad-
dition, the fluid contained in the
battery is poisonous and corro-
sive. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes. You are also advised not to
put naked flames or lighted cig-
arettes near the battery and not
to cause sparks.
Remember that until
the engine has started the
brake booster and elec-
trical power steering systems will
not work and a greater effort will
therefore be required to press
the brake pedal or turn the steer-
ing wheel.IF A TYRE
IS PUNCTURED
Certain versions (for versions/ mar-
kets, where provided) are fitted with
wheel identification and tyre inflation
sensors; pressure loss is signalled to
the driver in the following way:
pressure loss- the infotelematic
CONNECT system displays the relat-
ed message and a “gong” is emitted by
the system. Contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship;
punctured tyre- warning light
“STOP” comes on and the in-
fotelematic CONNECT system dis-
plays the related message together
with 3 consecutive “gong” sounds.
Change the wheel in the following
way.
The system can also display a dedi-
cated message in the event it should
not be able to detect the tyre pres-
sure. Under no circumstances
should a battery charger
be used to start the en-
gine: it could damage the elec-
tronic systems and in particular
the ignition and injection control
units.
BUMP STARTING
Do not bump start by
pushing, towing or coast-
ing downhill. This way of
starting could cause a
rush of fuel into the catalytic con-
verter and damage it beyond re-
pair.

An incorrectly posi-
tioned jack may cause the
vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack to lift loads exceeding
that indicated on the label at-
tached to the jack itself.Do not lubricate the bolt
threads before fitting
them back: they could
come loose.
Never start the engine when the
vehicle is jacked up.
If you are towing a trailer, re-
move the trailer before jacking
up the vehicle.Never tamper with the
inflation valve. Never
place tools between the
rim and the tyre.
Check the tyre and space-saver
spare wheel pressure regularly.
The tyre inflation pressure is
shown in the “Technical specifi-
cations” chapter.
The jack should only be
used to change a wheel
on the vehicle for which it
was designed. It should not be put
to other uses or employed to
raise other models. Under no cir-
cumstances should it be used
when carrying out repairs under
the vehicle.
Check the inflation pres-
sure of the tyres and the
spare wheel regularly. If
you change the type of wheels (al-
loy rims instead of steel rims) you
will have to change the entire set
of fastening bolts with another
set of suitably sized bolts.
You should keep the bolts in
case you decide to use the origi-
nal type of wheel later on.Signal the presence of
the stopped car according
to the laws in force: haz-
ard lights, reflecting triangle, etc.
Any passengers on board should
leave the car, especially if it is
heavily laden. Passengers should
stay away from oncoming traffic
while the wheel is being changed.
If the wheel is being changed on
a steep or badly surfaced road,
place wedges or other suitable
material under the wheels to
stop the car.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Observe the instructions on this and
the following pages to use the jack and
space-saver spare wheel correctly.

When you have finished:
1)Arrange the replaced wheel in the
support under the floor.
2)Tighten the bolt with the jack han-
dle until the wheel support is well po-
sitioned and then put the cover back
to its place.
3)Close the tailgate.
4)Refit the jack and the jack handle
in the compartment.
5)Close the compartment with the
covering panel.IF A BULB BURNS
OUT
Modifications or repairs
to the electrical system
carried out incorrectly
and without bearing the features
of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
You should, where pos-
sible, have your bulbs
changed at a Fiat Dealer-
ship. Correct operation of exter-
nal light beams are essential for
safe driving and compliance with
legal requirements.

Only touch the metal
part when handling halo-
gen bulbs. If the transpar-
ent bulb is touched it reduces the
intensity of the light emitted and
can also reduce the life of the
bulb. If you touch the bulb acci-
dentally, rub it with a cloth moist-
ened with alcohol and leave it to
dry.
Halogen bulbs contain
pressurised gas which, if
broken, may cause small
fragments of glass to be project-
ed outwards.
