In addition to the electrical branches, the car's
electrical system can be connected only to the supply
cable for an electric brake and to the cable for an
internal trailer light, though not more than 15 W. To
connect, use the preset control unit with a battery
cable with cross-section no less than 2.5 mm

2

.

IMPORTANT The use of auxiliary loads other than
external lights (electric brake, winch, etc.) must
occur with engine running.

IMPORTANT To install a tow hook contact a Fiat
Dealership.

WARNING

The ABS with which the car may be
equipped will not control the braking

system of the trailer. Particular caution is
required on slippery roads.

WARNING

Never modify the braking system of the
car to control the trailer brake.The

trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the car’s hydraulic system.

SNOW TYRES

Use snow tyres of the same size as the normal tyres
provided with the car.
A Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice
concerning the most suitable type of tyre for the
customer's requirements.
For the type of tyre to be used, inflation pressures
and the specifications of snow tyres, follow the
instructions given in paragraph "Wheels" in section
"Technical specifications".
The winter performance of these tyres is
considerably reduced when the tread thickness is less
than 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; always comply
with specific local regulations relating to the use
of snow tyres.
All four tyres should be the same (brand and track)
to ensure greater safety when driving and braking
and better driveability. Remember that you should
not change the rotation direction of the tyres.
