If the battery is flat, it is possible to start the engine using an auxiliary
battery with the same capacity or a little higher than the flat one.
Proceed as follows:
Connect positive terminals (+) of the two batteries with a jump lead;
With a second lead, connect the negative terminal (–) of the auxiliary
battery and to an earthing point

on the engine or the gearbox of
the car to be started;
Start the engine;
When the engine has been started, remove the leads reversing the
order above.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start, do not insist but contact
the nearest Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative terminals of the two
batteries: any sparks may ignite the detonating gas which could come out
of the battery. If the auxiliary battery is installed on another car, avoid
metal parts touching accidentally between this car and the one with the
flat battery.

Never use a battery charger to start the engine as this could damage the electronic systems of your
vehicle, particularly the ignition and fuel supply control units.

liquid contained in the battery is poisonous an corrosive. Avoid contact with the

do not cause sparks.
