exceed 80 km/h. "Warning! For temporary

use only! 80 km/h max!”. Replace with

standard wheel as soon as possible.

Never remove or cover the sticker on the

space-saver wheel. Never apply a wheel

cap on a space-saver wheel. The vehicle's

driving characteristics will be modified

with the space-saver wheel fitted. Avoid

violent acceleration and braking, abrupt

steering and fast cornering. The driving

characteristics of the car will be modified

with the space-saver spare wheel or spare

wheel fitted. Avoid violent acceleration

and braking, abrupt steering and fast

cornering. The overall duration of the

space-saver wheel is about 3000 km, after

which the relevant tyre must be replaced

with another one of the same type. Never

install a traditional tyre on a rim designed

to be used as a space-saver wheel. Have

the wheel repaired and refitted as soon as

possible. Using two or more space-saver

spare wheels or spare wheels at the same

time is forbidden. Do not apply grease to

the bolt threads before fitting: they could

come unscrewed.

58) Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as

possible to have the correct tightening of

the wheel bolts checked.

150) The jack is a tool developed and

designed only for changing a wheel, if a

tyre gets punctured or damaged, on

the car with which it is supplied or on

other cars of the same model. It must

not be used, for example, to jack other

vehicle models or objects. Never use it

to carry out servicing or repairs under

the vehicle or to change summer/winter

wheels and vice versa: we advise you

to contact a Fiat Dealership. Never go

under the raised vehicle: 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 car only

as needed in order to access the spare

wheel.

151) Never tamper with the inflation valve.

Never introduce tools of any kind between

the rim and the tyre. Check tyre and

space-saver wheel pressures regularly,

complying with the values given in the

"Technical specifications" chapter.

152) Observe the following instructions if

the car is equipped with a spare wheel

smaller than the normal size (a 16” spare

wheel is provided with 17" and 18" tyres)

or a space-saver spare wheel. The space-

saver wheel (for versions/markets where

provided) is specific to your car, do not

use it on other models, or use the space-

saver wheel of other models on your car.

The space-saver wheel must only be used

in the event of an emergency. Never use it

for more than strictly necessary and never
