SPEEDOMETER fig. 22
It shows the car speed.
REV. COUNTER fig. 23
It shows the engine revolutions per
minute.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off the
flow of fuel when the engine is “over-
revving”, thus causing a gradual loss
of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev
counter may indicate a gradual or
sudden increase of the speed.
This is normal and does not indicate
a fault. It may be caused, for exam-
ple, by the operation of the climate
control system or fan. In these cases,
a slow change in engine speed is used
to protect the battery charge.The reserve warning light Aturns on
to indicate that approximately
6 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
Do not travel with the tank nearly
empty: lack of fuel supply could dam-
age the catalyser. FUEL LEVEL GAUGE fig. 24
This gauge gives an indication of the
litres of fuel in the tank (see the in-
formation provided in paragraph “Re-
fuelling the car”).

tripping
The screen automatically appears
whenever the fuel cut-off inertial
switch trips after a significant colli-
sion.
This switch stops fuel supply.
See the information provided in the
dedicated chapter “Fuel cut-off iner-
tial switch”. Set this function as follows:
❒press the button MODEseveral
times until the text “SPEED” ap-
pears;
❒press the button +to increase the
speed value (max. limit being 250
Km/h);
❒press the button –to reduce the
speed value (min. limit being 30
Km/h below which the system
goes back to “OFF” mode);
❒press the button MODEand hold
it pressed for over 2 seconds to
confirm the speed setting.
If, after the message
“FPSon” appears, you
smell fuel or see leaks from the fuel
supply system, do not reset the
switch to avoid the risk of starting a
fire.

(Consumption)
This function enables setting the unit
for the amount of fuel consumed
(km/l, l/100 or mpg) depending on
the distance unit selected (either km
or miles - see previous paragraph
“Distance Unit”).
If the distance unit set is “km”, the

sumption unit (km/l or l/100) de-
pending on the amount of fuel con-
sumed. If the distance unit set is “mi”,
the display shows the fuel consump-
tion unit in “mpg”.

pressing the relevant button;
– “automatic” resetting, when the
“Trip distance” reaches 9999.9 km or
when the “Travel time” reaches 99.59

CUT-OFF SWITCH
It is located in the bottom, near the
passenger side pillar; to access it, re-
move the carpet. It trips in the event
of a collision cutting the fuel supply
off; as a consequence, the engine turns
off.
When the switch trips, the instrument
panel warning light
èturns on and
the relevant message (where pro-
vided) is displayed on the reconfig-
urable multifunctional display.
Carefully inspect the car to ensure
that there are no fuel leaks, e.g. from
the engine compartment, under the
car or near the tank.
If, after a crash, you smell
fuel or see leaks from the
fuel system, do not reset the switch
to avoid fine risk.
WARNING

If no fuel leaks are detected and the
car can start, press button A-fig. 84
in order to reactivate the fuel feeding
system and turn the lights on.
After a crash, turn the ingition key to
STOPto avoid draining the battery.

CAR REFUELLING
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the
fuel filler is too small to introduce the
beak of a leaded petrol pump. The
petrol octane rating (RON) must not
be 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 amounts or in an emer-
gency, as this would damage the cat-
alyst beyond repair.MULTIJET ENGINES
Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low,
the diesel thickens due to the forma-
tion of paraffin clots with consequent
anomalous operation of the fuel sup-
ply system.
In order to avoid these problems, dif-
ferent types of diesel are distributed
according to the season: summer type,
winter type and arctic type (cold,
mountain areas). If refuelling with
diesel fuel whose features are not suit-
able to the temperature of use, it is
advisable to mix TUTELA DIESEL
ART additive in the proportions
shown on the container with the fuel.
Pour the additive into the tank before
the fuel.
When using or parking the car for a
long time in the mountains or cold ar-
eas, it is advisable to refuel using lo-
cally available fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over 50% full. To guarantee the effective
operation of the system, the
sensors must be kept clean at
all times. Be careful not to
scratch or damage the sensors while
cleaning them. Avoid using dry, rough
or hard cloths. Clean the sensors with
clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. At car wash
centres that use steam or high pres-
sure water jets, clean the sensors
quickly keeping the nozzle more than
10 cm away.
The driver is, however, al-
ways held responsible for
parking and other dangerous ma-
noeuvres. When carrying out this
manoeuvre, ensure that there are no
people, animals or object within the
manoeuvring area. Parking sensors
are designed to assist drivers: in all
cases, you must always pay the ut-
most attention during potentially
dangerous manoeuvres.

FUEL FILLER CAP
The opening of the fuel flap is inter-
locked with the door opening/closing
control. For this reason, if the doors
are locked, in order to refuel, press
buttonD-fig. 122.
The cap C-fig, 121is provided with a
loss prevention device Bwhich secures
it to the lid Aso that it cannot be lost.
To open the cap C, turn it anticlock-
wise and remove it. FILLING THE TANK
To fill the tank completely, top-up
twice after the pump switches off.
Further top-ups could cause faults in
the fuel feeding system.
For diesel engines, use diesel
fuel for motor vehicles com-
pliant with EN590 Euro-
pean specifications only. The
use of other products or mixtures may
damage the engine beyond repair and
consequently cause lapse of warranty
in relation to the damage caused. If
you accidentally introduce other types
of fuel in the tank, do not start the en-
gine and empty the tank. If the engine
has run also for a very short time, you
will need to have the entire fuel feed
system emptied in addition to the
tank.

peratures, etc.) and it will then calcu-
late the amount of particulates trapped
by the filter. Since this filter physically
traps particulates, it shall be cleaned
(reclaimed) at regular intervals by
burning carbon particles. The regener-
ation procedure is controlled automat-
ically by the engine control unit ac-
cording to the filter conditions and the
conditions of use of the car. During the
regeneration procedure, the following
situations may occur: limited increase
of idle speed, activation of electric fan,
limited increase of smoke, high tem-
peratures at the exhaust. These are not
anomalies; they do not impair car be-
haviour and the environment. If the
dedicated message is displayed, refer to
section “Warning lights and messages”.PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The devices for curtailing petrol engine
emissions are the following:
❒three-way catalytic converter;
❒Lambda sensors;
❒fuel evaporation prevention 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)
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
(for 1.3 Multijet 90 CV versions)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a me-
chanical filter, integral with the exhaust
system, that physically traps particu-
lates present in the exhaust gases of
Diesel engines. The diesel particulate
filter has been adopted to eliminate al-
most totally particulates in compliance
with current / future law regulations.
During normal use of the car, the en-
gine control unit records a set of data
(e.g.: travel time, type of route, tem- During refuelling, attach the cap to
the device on the inside of the flap, as
shown in the figure.
IMPORTANT The sealing of the tank
may cause light pressuring in the
tank. A little breathing off, while
slackening the cap, is absolutely nor-
mal.
After refuelling, tighten the cap by
turning it clockwise until you hear one
or more clicks. Then turn the key
clockwise and remove it and close the
flap.
Do not place naked flames
or lit cigarettes near to the
fuel filler: fire risk. Keep your face
away from the fuel filler to prevent
breathing in harmful vapours.
WARNING
The catalytic converter de-
velops high temperature
during operation. Do not park on
grass, dry leaves, pine needles or
other flammable material: fire risk.
