AT THE FILLING STATION
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To prevent errors, the diameter of the fuel tank
filler is too small to introduce a lead petrol pump
filler. Use petrol with a rated octane number
(R.O.N.) not lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst leads to
harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing to air
pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small
amount or in an emergency, as this would damage
the catalyst beyond repair.
MULTIJET ENGINES
Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low, the diesel
thickens due to the formation of paraffin and could
cause the malfunctioning of the fuel system.In order to avoid these problems, different types of
diesel are distributed according to the season:
summer type, winter type and arctic type (cold,
mountain areas). If refuelling with diesel fuel not
suitable for the current temperature, mix diesel fuel
with TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the
proportions stated on the can, putting first the
antifreeze in the tank and then the diesel fuel.
If driving or parking the vehicle for a long period in
cold areas/mountains, refuel with the diesel fuel
available at local filling stations.
In this situation you are also recommended to have
in the tank an amount of fuel 50% higher than
usable capacity.
REFUELLING
To guarantee full tank filling, carry out two
refuelling operations after the first click of the fuel
delivery gun. Avoid further topping up operations
that could cause damages to the fuel system.

The car must only be filled with diesel fuel for motor vehicles, in compliance with European
Standard EN590. The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine with
invalidation of the warranty due to the damage caused. In the event of accidentally filling with
another type of fuel, do not start the engine and empty the tank. If the engine has been run even for
only a very short time, in addition to the tank, it is also necessary to drain out the whole fuel
circuit.

PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
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 engine emissions are the following:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system (E.G.R.);
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF).
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for 1.3 Multijet 90 HP version)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, integral with the exhaust system, that physically traps
particulates present in the exhaust gases of Diesel engines. The diesel particular filter has been adopted to
eliminate almost totally particulates in compliance with current / future law regulations. During normal use
of the vehicle, the engine control unit records a set of data (e.g.: travel time, type of route, temperatures, etc.)
and it will then calculate how much particulates has been trapped by the filter. Since this filter physically
traps particulates, it shall be cleaned (reclaimed) at regular intervals by burning carbon particles.
Reclaiming procedure is controlled automatically by the engine control unit according to the filter conditions
and the conditions of use of the vehicle. During reclaiming the following phenomena could take place: idling
slight increase, fan activation, slight smoke increase, high exhaust temperatures. These situations shall not be
considered as faults and they do not affect vehicle performance and environment. If the dedicated message
is displayed, refer to paragraph “Warning lights and messages”.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the homologation tests set
down by specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extraurban use of the car; the speed varies
between 0 and 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: is calculated weighing about 37% of urban cycle consumption and about 63% of
extraurban consumption.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of the
car, trim level/equipment/accessories, load, climate control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air
drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than those measured.
