FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 103
To carry out fuelling, if your car fits a cen-
tralised door locking system, unlock the
doors, open lid Aand unscrew cap B; the
cap is fitted with a special device Cwhich
fastens it to the lid so it cannot be mislaid.
If your car does not fit a centralised lock-
ing system, operate lever A-fig. 104to
release the flap.
In some versions, cap Bmay be provided
with a lock and key; use the ignition key
to access the flap A-fig. 103, turn it an-
ticlockwise and loosen the cap itself.
The airtight closing may determine a slight
increase of pressure in the tank. A suction
noise when you release the cap is there-
fore entirely normal.
PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The devices for curtailing petrol engine
emissions are the following:
❒three-way catalytic converter;
❒lambda sensors;
❒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.).
fig. 103F0M0203m
Do not approach naked
flames or lit sigarettes to the
fuel filler: fire risk. Keep your face
away from the fuel filler to prevent
breathing in harmful vapours.
WARNING
fig. 104F0R0210m
When refuelling, position the cap on the
device inside the lid as shown in fig. 103.
The catalytic converter de-
velops high temperature dur-
ing operation. Do not park on grass,
dry leaves, pine needles or other flam-
mable material: fire risk.

CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold start-ups
will prevent the engine from reaching op-
timal running temperature. Consequently,
both consumption (from +15 to +30% on
urban cycle ) and emissions will increase.
Traffic and
road conditions
Rather high consumption is caused by
heavy traffic, for instance when travelling
in a queue with frequent use of low gears
or in cities with many traffic lights. Moun-
tain and rough roads also have a negative
effect on consumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (level crossings)
the engine should be switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The car must be provided with a type-ap-
proved tow hitch and adequate electrical
system to tow caravans or trailers. Instal-
lation must be performed by specialised
personnel who will issue the required pa-
pers for travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional rear-
view mirrors as specified by law.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, the brak-
ing spaces increase and overtaking takes
longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill,
rather than constantly using the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the car’s tow
hitch will reduce the loading capacity of
the car by the same amount. Consider the
weight of the car at full load, including ac-
cessories and luggage to make sure you do
not exceed the maximum towable weight
(shown on the log book). Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases
as speed increases. Keep your speed as
even as possible, avoiding unnecessary
braking and acceleration which cause ex-
cessive fuel consumption and increase
emissions.
Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very negative
effect on consumptions and emissions: ac-
celerate gradually and do not go over the
maximum torque ratio.
