Wheels - Fiat Fullback Single cab Owner's Manual

389) If the pressure is too low, the tyre will
overheat and could be seriously damaged.
390) Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
391) Avoid switching the tyres from the
right side of the vehicle to the left side and
vice versa.
IMPORTANT
214) Always use tyres of the same size,
same type, and same brand, and which
have no wear differences. Using tyres of
different size, type, brands or degree of
wear, will increase the differential oil
temperature, resulting in possible damage
to the driving system. Further, the drive
train will be subjected to excessive loading,
possibly leading to oil leakage, component
seizure, or other serious faults.
215) Avoid using different size tyres from
the one listed and the combined use of
different types of tyres, as this can affect
driving safety.
216) Even if a wheel has the same rim size
and offset as the specified type of wheel,
its shape may prevent it from being fitted
correctly. Consult a Fiat dealership before
using wheels that you have.

217) If the tyres have arrows (A) indicating
the correct direction of rotation, swap the
front and rear tyres on the left hand side of
the vehicle and the front and rear tyres on
the right hand side of the vehicle separately.
Keep each tyre on its original side of the
vehicle. When fitting the tyres, make sure
the arrows point in the direction in which
the wheels will turn when the vehicle moves
forward. Any tyre whose arrow points in the
wrong direction will not perform to its full
potential.
218) Avoid the combined use of different
types of tyres. Using different types of tyres
can affect vehicle performance and safety.
219) If winter tyres with a lower speed
rating than that indicated in the Registration
Document are used, do not exceed the
maximum speed corresponding to the
speed rating of the tyres used.
220) Observe permissible maximum speed
for your snow tyres and the legal speed
limit.
221) Choose a clear straight stretch of road
where you can pull off and still be seen
while you are fitting the snow traction
device (Tyre chains).
222) Do not fit snow traction device (Tyre
chains) before you need them. This will
wear out your tyres and the road surface.
223) After driving around 100-300 metres,
stop and retighten the snow traction device
(Tyre chains).
224) Drive cautiously and do not exceed
50 km/h. Remember that preventing
accidents is not the purpose of snow
traction device (tyre chains).
225) When snow traction device (Tyre
chains) are installed, take care that they do
not damage the disc wheel or body.
226) An aluminium wheel can be damaged
by a snow traction device (Tyre chains)
while driving. When fitting a snow traction
device (Tyre chains) on an aluminium wheel,
take care that any part of the snow traction
device (Tyre chains) and fitting cannot be
brought into contact with the wheel.
227) When installing or removing a snow
traction device (Tyre chains), take care that
hands and other parts of your body are not
injured by the sharp edges of the vehicle
body.
228) Install the snow traction device (Tyre
chains) only on the rear tyres and tighten
them as tightly as possible with the ends
securely fastened.
