COLD TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE (bar)

249) 250)

When the tyres are warm, the inflation pressure should be + 0.3 bar in relation to the recommended figure. With snow tyres,

add +0.2 bar to the pressure value prescribed for other standard tyres.

However, recheck the correct value when the tyre is cold.

Remember that the road holding qualities of your car also depend on correct tyre pressures.

RIM PROTECTOR TYRES

255)

For wheel hub caps fitting on rims with

Rim Protector tyres, see the warning

below.

249

F0S0351

SNOW TYRES

256)

Use snow tyres of the same size as the

standard tyres provided with the car.
All four tyres should be the same

(brand and track) to ensure greater

safety when driving and braking as well

as a good manoeuvrability.
Remember that you should not change

the rotation direction of the tyres.

The Fiat Dealership will be happy to

provide advice concerning the most

suitable type of tyre for the customer's

requirements.
The winter features of these tyres are

reduced considerably when the tread

depth is below 4 mm. Replace them in

this case.
Due to the specific characteristics

of snow tyres, in normal weather

conditions or on long motorway

journeys, the performance of these

tyres is lower than that of standard

tyres. Their usage should therefore be

restricted in accordance with their type

approval.

WARNING When using snow tyres

with a maximum speed index below

the one that can be reached by the car

(increased by 5%), place a notice in

the passenger compartment, plainly in

view, which states the maximum speed

allowed by the snow tyres (as per

EC Directive). All four tyres should be

the same (brand and track) to ensure

greater safety when driving and braking

as well as a good manoeuvrability.

Remember that you should not change

the rotation direction of the tyres.

SNOW CHAINS

98) 99) 100)

The use of snow chains should be in

compliance with local regulations of

each country. In certain countries,

tyres marked with code M+S (Mud

and Snow) are considered as winter

equipment; therefore their use is

equivalent to that of the snow chains.
Snow chains can be fitted to the tyres

of the front wheels (drive wheels) only.

Check the tension of the snow chains

after the first few feet/metres have been

driven.
Using snow chains with tyres with

non-original dimensions may damage

the car. Using different size or type

(M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between

front and rear axle may adversely

affect car driveability, with the risk of

losing control of the car and resulting

accidents.

251)

Do not switch tyres from the

right­hand side of the car to the left­hand

side, and vice versa.

252)

Never submit alloy rims to

repainting treatments requiring the use

of temperatures exceeding 150

°

C. The

mechanical properties of the wheels could

be impaired.

253)

Remember that the road holding

qualities of your car also depend on

correct tyre pressures.

254)

If tyre pressure is too low, it may

overheat and be severely damaged as a

result.

255)

Do NOT fit wheel cups when using

integral cups fixed (with springs) to the

steel rim and tyres other than factory-

fitted tyres provided with Rim Protector

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

260

(fig. 249). Use of unsuitable tyres and

wheel caps may cause sudden decrease

of tyre pressure.

256)

The top speed for snow tyres marked

“Q” is 160 km/h, while it is 190 km/h for

“T” tyres and 210 km/h for "H" tyres.

Nevertheless, you must always comply

with the highway code speed limits.

98)

Keep the vehicle's speed down when

snow chains are fitted; never exceed 50

km/h.

99)

With snow chains, use the accelerator

with extreme care to prevent, or to limit

as much as possible, slipping of the drive

wheels that could cause chain breakage,

resulting in damage to the vehicle body or

mechanical components.

100)

Avoid potholes, steps and pavements

and avoid driving long distances on roads

not covered with snow to avoid damaging

the car and the road surface.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE CAR AT THE END OF ITS

LIFE

FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production

processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To grant customers the best possible service

in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of

their life, FCA is offering its customers the chance to hand over their vehicle at the end of its life without incurring any additional

costs. The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any

expenses as a result of it having a zero or negative market value.

To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you are purchasing another

vehicle or an FCA-authorized collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality

service for the collection, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.

Similarly, to meet its obligations under European Directive 2006/66/EC on batteries, FCA requires you to comply with the

national regulations on handling both low-voltage and high-voltage lithium ion batteries (12V and 48V) at all times. This includes

consigning vehicles complete with their batteries to one of the collection and demolition centres authorized by FCA to handle

such batteries, and not disposing of them improperly, which could lead to personal injuries and/or harm to the environment.

You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA dealership or by calling the

number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various FCA brands.
