48) The sealant fluid is effective with

external temperatures from -40°C to

+50°C. The sealant fluid has an expiry date

and must be replaced periodically. It is

possible to repair tyres with damage on

the tread up to a maximum diameter of

6 mm. Show the cartridge and the label to

the personnel who must handle the tyre

treated with the TireKit.

If the traditional battery is flat, it is

possible to start the engine using an

auxiliary battery with the same capacity

or a little higher than the flat one.

To start, proceed as follows in the

numerical order shown in fig. 161:

connect the positive terminals (+

mark near the terminal) of the two

traditional batteries using a suitable

lead;

with a second cable, connect

the negative terminal (–) of the

supplementary battery to an earth point

on the engine or gearbox of the car to

be started as shown in fig. 161;

if another vehicle is ready for jump

starting, park the vehicle within the

reach of the cables to be used for

starting, operate the handbrake

and make sure that the ignition is

deactivated.

WARNING The positive terminal (+) of

the conventional battery is shielded

by a protective cover. Lift the cover to

access the positive terminal.

Proceed as follows:

engage the handbrake, shift the gear

lever into neutral and turn the ignition

key to the STOP position;

switch off all the other electrical

devices in the car;

if another vehicle is ready for jump

starting, park the vehicle within the

reach of the cables to be used for

starting, operate the handbrake

and make sure that the ignition is

deactivated.

JUMP STARTING

If the conventional battery is flat, jump

starting can be performed using cables

and the conventional battery of another

car, or using a supplementary lead

battery.

Jump starting may be dangerous if

carried out incorrectly: carefully follow

the procedures described below.

WARNINGS

Do not use the auxiliary battery or

any other external power source

with a voltage higher than 12 V:

the conventional battery, starter (for

versions/markets, where provided),

alternator (for versions/markets, where
