The devices for curtailing petrol engine
emissions are the following:
❒ three-way catalytic converter;
❒Lambda sensor;
❒fuel evaporation system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even
for a test, with one or more spark plugs
disconnected.
The devices for curtailing diesel fuel en-
gine emissions are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒ exhaust gas recirculation system
(E.G.R.);
❒ diesel particulate filter (DPF). FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 98 and 99
The fuel filler cap Bis fitted with an anti-
loss device Cwhich fastens it to the flap
Aso it cannot be mislaid.
To slacken the cap Bfirst open the flap A.
The sealing of the tank may cause light
pressurising in the tank. A little breathing
off, while slackening the cap is absolutely
normal.
When refuelling, position the cap on the
device inside the flap as shown in the fig-
ure.
fig. 99F0G0042m
Do not put naked flames or
lighted cigarettes near the fu-
el filler hole as there is a dan-
ger of fire. Do not bend too
close to the hole either so as not to
breathe in harmful vapours.
During normal service the
catalyst reaches high tem-
peratures. Do not therefore park the
car over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire
hazard.
WARNING
060-080 Panda New GB 21-06-2007 13:48 Pagina 79
Proceed as follows:
❒ Connect positive terminals (+) of the
two batteries with a jump lead;
❒With a second lead, connect the nega-
tive terminal–of the auxiliary battery
to an earthing pointEon the engine or
the gearbox of the car to be started;
❒Start the engine;
❒ When the engine has been started, re-
move the leads reversing the order
above.
If after a few attempts the engine does not
start, do not insist but contact the near-
est 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 acciden-
tally between this car and the one with the
flat battery. JUMP STARTING fig. 1
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.

CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
IN AN
EMERGENCY
Never use a battery charger
to start the engine as this
could damage the electronic
systems of your car, particu-
larly the ignition and fuel supply con-
trol units.
The starting procedure must
be carried out by qualified
personnel because incorrect opera-
tions may cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. The liquid con-
tained in the battery is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin
and eyes. Keep naked flames and light-
ed cigarettes away from the battery
and do not cause sparks.

IF THE BATTERY IS FLAT
IMPORTANT Battery recharging proce-
dure is given as information only. This op-
eration shall be only performed at a Fiat
Dealership.
Charging should be slow at a low amp rat-
ing for 24 hours. Charging for a longer
time may damage the battery.
Charge the battery as follows:
❒ disconnect battery negative terminal;
❒ connect the charger cables to the bat-
tery terminals, observing the poles;
The liquid contained in the
battery is poisonous and cor-
rosive. Avoid contact with the skin or
eyes. The battery should be charged
in a well ventilated place, away from
naked flames or possible sources of
sparks: danger of explosion and fire.
WARNING
Do not attempt to charge a
frozen battery: it must first-
ly be thawed, otherwise it may burst.
If freezing has occurred, the battery
should be checked by skilled person-
nel to make sure that the internal el-
ements are not damaged and that the
body is not cracked, with the risk of
leaking poisonous and corrosive acid.
WARNING❒ turn on the charger;
❒ when you have finished, turn the charg-
er off before disconnecting the battery;
❒ reconnect battery negative terminal.

MAINTENANCE
BATTERY
The car fits a low-maintenance battery: no
top-ups with distilled water are needed in
normal conditions of use.
INSPECTING THE CHARGE
AND THE ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
Inspection operations must be carried out
by specialised personnel, following the
prescriptions contained in the Use and
maintenance booklet. Any top-up opera-
tions must be carried out by specialised
personnel and by Fiat Dealership.Battery liquid is poisonous
and corrosive. Avoid contact
with the skin and eyes. Keep naked
flames and sources of sparks away
from the battery: risk of explosion
and fire.
WARNING
Running the battery with an
excessively low liquid level
will damage the battery beyond re-
pair and even cause an explosion.
WARNING
CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare part having the same specifi-
cations.
If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Service schedule” in this section will no
longer be valid.
Refer therefore to the instructions pro-
vided by the battery manufacturer.
