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" 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 spare wheel or spare wheel
must be used only in an emergency. Never
use it for more than strictly necessary and
never exceed 80 km/h. There is an orange
sticker on the space-saver spare wheel
which summarises the main warnings
regarding wheel usage restrictions. Never
remove or cover the label. The label
contains the following indications in four
languages: "Warning! For temporary use
only! 80 km/h max! Replace with standard
wheel as soon as possible. Never cover
this indication." Never apply a hub cup on
a space-saver spare wheel or spare wheel.
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.
IMPORTANT
64) 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: avoid
touching them. If you come into contact
with lubricating grease, clean yourself
thoroughly.
65) Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the correct tightening of
the wheel bolts checked.
