RAISING THE CAR
If the car needs to be jacked up, go to
a Fiat Dealership which is equipped with
shop jacks and jack arms.
Lift the car exclusively by positioning the
jack arms or the shop jack in the points
shown in the figure.
TOWING THE CAR
The tow hook provided with the car is
housed in the tool box under the luggage
compartment carpet.
The front and rear tow hooks
should be used only for emer-
gencies on the road. The car
can be towed for short dis-
tances using an appropriate device in ac-
cordance with the highway code (a rigid
bar); it can be moved on the road in
readiness for towing or transporting with
a tow truck. Tow hooks MUST NOT be
used to tow vehicles off the road or
where there are obstacles and/or for
towing operations using cables or
other non-rigid devices. Respecting the
above conditions, towing must take
place with two vehicles (one towing,
the other towed) aligned as much as
possible along the same centre line.
