Accessories Purchased By The Owner - Fiat LINEA Owner's Handbook Manual

ACCESSORIES
PURCHASED BY THE
OWNER
If after buying the car, you decide to install
electrical accessories that require a per-
manent electric supply (alarm, satellite an-
titheft system, etc.) or accessories that in
any case burden the electric supply, con-
tact Fiat-Tata Dealership, whose qualified
personnel, besides suggesting the most
suitable devices belonging to Linea access-
ories Fiat, will also evaluate the overall elect-
ric absorption, checking whether the car's
electric system is able to withstand the
load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
WARNING
Be very careful when fitting
non-standard
spoilers, light alloy wheels or wheel
cups: they could reduce brake venti-
lation and consequently brake effi-
ciency in the case of repeated, violent
braking or on long downhill roads.
Make sure that nothing obstructs the
pedal stroke (mats, etc.)

ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICE INSTALLATION
Electrical and electronic devices installed
after buying the car by after-market ser-
vice must carry the following label:
FIAT INDIA AUTOMOBILES LTD. auth-
orises the installation of transceiving dev-
ices provided that they are installed accord-
ing to rules of good engineering practice
respecting the manufacturer's indications
by a specialised centre.
IMPORTANT Traffic police may not allow
the car on the road in the event of as-
sembly of devices which imply modifica-
tions to the features of the car. This may
also cause lapse of warranty in relation to
additional
faults caused by the change or either di-
rectly or indirectly related to it.
FIAT INDIA AUTOMOBILES LTD. shall
not be liable for damage caused by the inst-
insallation of accessories either not sup-
plied or recommended by FIAT IN-
DIA AUTOMOBILES LTD. and/or installed
in compliance with the provided instruc-
tions.
TRANSCEIVERS
AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (e.g.: e-tacs
mobile phones, HAM radio systems and
the like) shall not be used inside the car
unless a separate aerial is mounted on the
roof.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices
inside the passenger compartment (with-
out separated aerial) produces radio-fre-
quency electromagnetic fields which, am-
plified by the resonance effects inside the
passenger compartment, may cause elec-
trical systems equipping the car to mal-
function. This could compromise safety in
addition to constituting a potential hazard
for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of
these devices may be affected by the
shielding effect of the car body.
As concerns EC-approved mobile phones
(GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly comply with
the instructions for use provided by the
mobile phone's manufacturer.
