Operation Manual

CHANGING A WHEEL
The vehicle is originally equipped with
the Fix&Go automatic quick tyre repair
kit (see instructions in the next section).
As an alternative, the vehicle may
have a normal-sized spare wheel.
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and spare wheel call for some
precautions, as listed below.

Note for one-way tyres
One-way tyres have a few arrows
on the side indicating the rotation
direction. If a wheel is changed (when
punctured, for example) the direction of
the arrows on the spare wheel tyre
may not coincide with the rotation
direction of the wheel to be replaced.
In these conditions, too, the tyre still
maintains its safety features.
Anyway, it is recommended to have the
wheel repaired and refitted as soon as
possible, as the best performance is
achieved when the rotation direction of
all tyres coincides with the one
indicated by the arrows.
Please note that:
❒ the jack weight is 4 kg;
❒ the jack requires no adjustment;
❒ the jack cannot be repaired and in
the event of a fault it must be
replaced by another original one;
❒ no tool other than its cranking device
may be fitted on the jack.
To change a wheel, proceed as follows:
❒ stop the vehicle in a position that is
not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel
safely. The ground should be flat
if possible, and sufficiently firm;
❒ stop the engine and pull the
handbrake;
❒ engage first gear or reverse;
❒ wear the reflective safety jacket
(compulsory by law in certain
countries) before getting out of the
vehicle;
❒ indicate that the vehicle has broken
down using the devices required by
the law in the current country (e.g.
warning triangle, hazard lights, etc.);
❒ for Cargo versions fig. 184: move the
left front seat forward and operate
lever A to access the tool bag; take it
to the wheel that needs replacing;
❒ for Doblò/Doblò Combi versions fig.
185: open the rear doors, inside the
compartment on the rear right side,
take the tool bag, unhooking the
elastic band from the buckle, and
take it next to the wheel to be
changed;
