AND CONTROLS
For diesel engines, use diesel
fuel for motor vehicles com-
pliant with EN590 European
specifications only. The use of
other products or mixtures may dam-
age the engine beyond repair and con-
sequently cause lapse of warranty in
relation to the damage caused. If you
accidentally introduce other types of
fuel into the tank, do not start the en-
gine. Empty the tank. If the engine has
run, even for a very short time, you will
need to have the entire fuel system
emptied in addition to the tank.
REFUELLING
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the fu-
el filler is too small to introduce the beak
of a leaded petrol pump. The petrol oc-
tane rating (RON) must not be 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.MULTIJET ENGINES
Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low, the
diesel thickens due to the formation of
paraffin clots with consequent defective
operation of the fuel supply system.
In order to avoid these problems, differ-
ent types of diesel are distributed ac-
cording to the season: summer type, win-
ter type and arctic type (cold/ mountain
areas). If refuelling with diesel fuel whose
features are not suitable to the tempera-
ture 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 vehicle for a
long time in the mountains or cold areas,
it is advisable to refuel using locally avail-
able fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep the
tank over 50% full.REFUELLING
To fill the tank completely, top up twice
after the pump switches off. Further top
ups could cause faults in the fuel feeding
system.
