REFUELLING
Only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 conforming to the European specifica-
tion EN 228.
ENGINE STARTING
Make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch without pressing
the accelerator, then turn the ignition key toAVV 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 car over grass, dry leaves, pine nee-
dles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The car is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the components correlated with emissions to en-
sure better respect for the environment.

RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND
CELLULAR TELEPHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (e.g.: e-tacs
mobile phones, HAM radio systems and
the like) shall not be used inside the car
unless a separate aerial is mounted on the
roof.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices
inside the passenger compartment (with-
out separated aerial) produces radio-fre-
quency electromagnetic fields which, am-
plified by the resonance effects inside the
passenger compartment, may cause elec-
trical systems equipping the car to mal-
function. This could compromise safety in
addition to constituting a potential hazard
for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of
these devices may be affected by the
shielding effect of the car body.
As concerns EC-approved mobile phones
(GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly comply with
the instructions for use provided by the
mobile phone’s manufacturer.AT THE FILLING
STATION
Use only unleaded petrol.
To prevent errors, the diameter of the fu-
el tank filler is too small to introduce a lead
petrol pump filler. Use petrol with a rat-
ed octane number (R.O.N.) not lower
than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst leads
to harmful exhaust emissions, thus con-
tributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol,
even in small amount or in an emergency,
as this would damage the catalyst beyond
repair.FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 100
To carry out fuelling, open lid Aand un-
screw cap B; the cap is fitted with an an-
tiloss device Cwhich fastens it to the lid
so it cannot be mislaid.
On certain versions cap Bis provided with
a key-lock, to open it, open lid A, then
turn the ignition key counter-clockwise
and slacken the cap.
The sealing of the tank may cause light
pressurising in the tank. Alittle breath-
ing off, while slackening the cap, is ab-
solutely normal.
When refuelling, position the cap on the
device inside the lid as shown in fig. 100.

With snow tyres, add +0.2 bar to the inflation pressure value prescribed for standard tyres.
When running at speed higher than 160 km/h, inflate tyres at full load inflation values.
With T.P.M.S. system, pressure value shall be + 0.1 bar than prescribed value.
