REFUELLING
Only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590.
The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with invalidation of the warranty due to
the damage caused.
ENGINE STARTING
Make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch pedal, without
pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to MAR and wait for the
Yand mwarning lights to go off;
turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the vehicle over grass, dry leaves, pine
needles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the components correlated with emissions to
ensure better respect for the environment.

SPEEDOMETER fig. 12
It shows the engine speed.REV COUNTER fig. 13
Rev counter shows engine rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off the flow
of fuel when the engine is “over-revving”
resulting in a gradual loss of engine pow-
er.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden higher-
ing of the speed.
This is normal and takes place for exam-
ple when activating the climate control
system or the fan. In these events a slight
increase in engine idling preserves the bat-
tery charge.
