Get In An Emergency -> Fix&Go Kit Guide for Fiat 500 C 2 Door Second Generation (2021-2025)

159) The jack is a tool developed and

designed only for changing a wheel, if a

tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the

vehicle with which it is supplied or on other

vehicles of the same model. Any other

use, e.g. to jack up other vehicle models or

different things, is strictly prohibited. Never

use it to carry out maintenance or repairs

under the vehicle or to change summer/

winter wheels and vice versa. Never go

under the raised vehicle. If any work under

the vehicle is necessary, contact the Fiat

Service Network. Incorrect placing of

the jack can cause the vehicle to drop: use

it only in the positions indicated. Do not

use the jack for loads higher than the one

shown on its label. Never start the engine

with vehicle raised. If the vehicle is raised

more than necessary, everything can

become more unstable, with the risk of the

vehicle dropping violently. Thus, lift the

vehicle only as needed in order to access

the spare tyre.

162) It is extremely dangerous to attempt

to change a wheel on the side of the

vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure

that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance

from the road, to avoid being run over.

DESCRIPTION

The Fix&Go quick tyre repair kit fig. 121

is located in the boot, inside a

dedicated container and consists of:

WARNING

one cartridge 1 containing sealant

and fitted with: transparent tube for

injecting the sealant 4 and sticker

3 with the wording “Max 80 km/h” to

be placed in a clearly visible position

(e.g. on the dashboard) after repairing

the tyre;

53) When turning the jack handle make

sure that it can turn freely without scraping

your hand against the ground. The moving

components of the jack ("worm screw"

and joints) can also cause injuries: do not

touch them. If you come into contact

with lubricating grease, clean yourself

thoroughly.

one compressor 2;

54) Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as

possible to have the correct tightening

of the wheel bolts checked.

160) Snow chains cannot be fitted to the

space-saver wheel. So, if a front (drive)

wheel is punctured and chains are needed,

a rear wheel should be fitted to the front

of the car and the space-saver wheel

should be fitted to the rear. In this way,

equipped with two normal drive wheels at

the front, they can be fitted with snow

chains, thus resolving the emergency

situation.

one leaflet containing instructions for

using the kit;

a pair of gloves located in the hose

compartment of the cartridge 4.

161) If the hub cap is not fitted correctly, it

may come off when the car is travelling.

Never tamper with the inflation valve. Never

introduce tools of any kind between rim

and tyre. Check tyre and space-saver

wheel pressures regularly, complying with

the values given in the "Technical

specifications" chapter.
