IDENTIFICATION DATA
IMPORTANT If the car has been
registered in a country other than
Italy, the certification data, identifi-
cation and inspection procedures for
the methane canisters should con-
form to the legislation in that coun-
try. In any case, it should be re-
membered that the life of the can-
isters is 20 years from the produc-
tion date as set out in ECE Regula-
tion no. 110.
Marking the canisters
Each methane canister is identified in the
factory with a stamp on the nose of the
actual canister.
fig. 16F0M0465m
The stamp includes:
CNG ONLY(type of gas designed for:
compressed natural gas only);
DO NOT USE AFTER
-
(canister expiry date: month-year);
FABER(name of canister manufacturer);
/ / (canister regis-
tration number);
L(nominal canister capacity in litres);
KG(weight of canister kg: specific
for each canister);
20.0MPa15°C(operating pressure at
15°C);
30.0MPa(canister test pressure);
E
110R-(ECE homologa-
tion number);ECE R 110(manufacturing regulations);
CNG-1(type of canister);
/ (canister manufacture test
date: month/year);
USE ONLY FABER-APPROVED
PRD(PRD safety device warning);
(–N)(ENI stamp).
The other plates (handed over with the
car documentation) contain the date for
the first inspection of the canisters.
SYSTEM INSPECTION
The canisters should be inspected, in ac-
cordance with ECE Regulation Procedure
no. 110, every 4 years from the vehicle
registration date or in accordance with
specific regulations in individual countries.

❒) In the presence of optional equipment the unladen weight increases and, as a result, the payload decreases in relation to the max-
imum permitted loads.
(
❍) Loads not to be exceeded. The user is responsible for arranging goods in the luggage compartment and/on load carrying plat-
form within the maximum permitted loads.
IMPORTANT A trailer cannot be towed so there are no provisions for fitting a tow hook.

FUEL
CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the
table below are determined on the basis
of the homologation tests laid 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: driving simulating the
use of the vehicle in a non-urban situation
with frequent acceleration in all gears; the
speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
– combined consumption: determined
through a weighting of about 37% of the
urban cycle and 63% of the extra-urban
cycle.IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic
conditions, weather conditions, driving
style, state of the car in general, trim lev-
el/equipment/accessories, use of the cli-
mate control, car load, presence of a roof
rack and other situations that adversely af-
fect the aerodynamics, may lead to con-
sumption figures that differ from those
measured (see “Saving fuel” in the “Start-
ing and driving” chapter in the booklet).
