In an Emergency
•
Tire repair kit can be used in outside
temperatures down to approximately
-20
°
C (-4
°
F).
• Replace the tire repair kit sealant
bottle prior to the expiration date
(printed on the bottle label) to assure
optimum operation of the system.
NOTE:
• The compressor power plug can be
inserted either in the 12 V power
outlet housed in the boot or inside
the passenger compartment (see
“Internal Equipment” in section “
Understanding the Vehicle”).
• When having the tire serviced to
the Service Network or to a tires
service centre, advise who performs
the operation that the tire has been
sealed using the tire repair kit.
Using the Compact Spare
Wheel
The automatic levelling of pneumatic
suspensions might create problems
when it is necessary to lift the vehicle
to replace the wheel featuring
punctured tire with the emergency
wheel supplied or with another wheel.
CAUTION!
Before mounting the compact spare
wheel it is necessary to disable the
suspension system by scrolling the
user settings on MIA and selecting
“Wheel Replacement Mode” in
“Suspensions” submenu. The tick next
to selected item will indicate that
this mode is active and pneumatic
suspension system is disabled (for
further details, refer to “Functions of
Settings Menu on MIA” chapter in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”). After servicing, restore
original conditions and eliminate the
tick next to selected mode: in this way
the pneumatic suspension system will
go back to normal operation.
NOTE:
The compact spare wheel is supplied in
aluminium or steel: the pictures show
the one in aluminium.
The compact spare wheel is stored in
the boot and is supplied deflated in
order to limit the amount of space
occupied. An electric compressor is also
provided for inflating. In the event of
a tire puncture, proceed as follows.
• Stop the vehicle in a place that does
not constitute a danger to traffic and
where the wheel can be changed
safely. The vehicle must be level and
on firm ground.
• Select the P (Park) mode and then
engage manually the electric parking
brake and move the ignition device
to
OFF position.
• If necessary, turn the hazard warning
lights on and place the warning
triangle (if equipped) at the required
distance.
WARNING!
• The jack should be used on level firm
ground wherever possible.
•
It is recommended that the wheels
of the vehicle be chocked, and that
no person should remain in a vehicle
that is being jacked.
• If the vehicle has been stopped on
a slope or an uneven surface, place
chocks or other suitable items in
front of or behind the wheels to stop
the vehicle from moving.
• Never start or run the engine with
the vehicle on a jack.
• No person should place any portion
of their body under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.
