REFUELLING THE CAR
PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the fuel tank opening is
too small to insert the nozzle of a leaded petrol pump. The
petrol octane rating (RON) must not be lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic converter leads to
harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing to air pol-
lution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small
amounts or in an emergency, as this would damage the
catalytic converter beyond repair.
DIESEL ENGINES
If the outside temperature is very low, the diesel thick-
ens due to the formation of paraffin clots and could clog
the diesel filter. In order to avoid these problems, differ-
ent types of diesel are distributed according to the season:
summer type, winter type and arctic type (cold, moun-
tainous areas).
If refuelling with diesel fuel whose specifications are not
suitable for the usage temperature, 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 lo-
cally available diesel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep the tank over
50% full.
For diesel engines, use only diesel fuel for
motor vehicles in accordance with EN590
European specifications. The use of other
products or mixtures may damage the engine be-
yond repair and consequently invalidate the war-
ranty, depending on the damage caused. If you ac-
cidentally introduce other types of fuel into the
tank, do not start the engine. 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 ad-
dition to the tank.
FUEL TANK CAP fig. 128
To carry out refuelling, open lid A and unscrew cap B;
the cap is fitted with a device C which fastens it to the lid
so it cannot be mislaid.
In some versions, cap B have a lock and key: open lid A,
insert the ignition key then turn it anti-clockwise and un-
screw the cap itself.
The hermetic seal may cause a slight increase in pressure
in the tank. A suction noise when you release the cap is
therefore entirely normal.
When refuelling, attach the cap to the device inside the
flap as shown in fig. 128.

Filling the tank
To fill the tank completely, top up twice after the first click
of the trigger. Further top ups could cause faults in the
fuel supply system.
Do not bring naked flames or lit cigarettes
near to the fuel tank opening: fire risk.
Keep your face away from the fuel tank opening
to avoid breathing in harmful vapours.
WARNING
F0U0111mfig. 128
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for reducing 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 following de-
vices are used for reducing diesel fuel engine emissions:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system (EGR.);
❒diesel particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/markets
where provided).

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechanical filter, inte-
gral to the exhaust system, that physically traps particu-
lates present in the exhaust gases of diesel engines.
It is needed to eliminate almost all particulates in compli-
ance with current/future legislation.
During normal use of the vehicle, the engine control unit
records a set of data (e.g. travel time, type of route, tem-
peratures, etc.) and it will then calculate how much par-
ticulate has been trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particulate, it should be re-
generated (cleaned) at regular intervals by burning the car-
bon particles.
The regeneration procedure is handled automatically by
the engine control unit according to the filter conditions
and vehicle use conditions.
During regeneration, the following may occur: a limited in-
crease in the engine speed, activation of the fan, a limited
increase in fumes and high temperatures at the exhaust.
These are not faults; they do not impair vehicle perfor-
mance or damage the environment.
If the dedicated message is displayed, refer to the “Warn-
ing lights and messages” section.
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) (for ver-
sions/markets where required) reaches
high temperatures during normal operation.
Therefore do not therefore park the vehicle on in-
flammable materials (grass, dry leaves, pine nee-
dles, etc.): fire hazard.
WARNING
The catalytic converter also reaches high
temperatures during normal operation.
Do not park the vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine
needles or other flammable material: fire hazard.

EXTERIOR LIGHTS FAILURE
(amber)
(for versions/markets where provided)
The warning light comes on (on some versions) when
a failure is detected in one of the following lights:
– sidelights/taillights
– brake lights
– rear fog lights
– direction indicators
– number plate lights
- daytime running lights.
A specific message is displayed on some versions.
W
The presence of water in the fuel supply
circuit may cause severe damage to the in-
jection system and irregular engine oper-
ation. If warning light
ccomes on (with a message
on the display on some versions), go to a Fiat Deal-
ership as soon as possible to have the system bled.
Water may have entered the tank if this appears
immediately after refuelling: if this happens, switch
the engine off immediately and contact a Fiat Deal-
ership.
FIAT CODE VEHICLE PROTECTION
SYSTEM FAULT
(amber)
(for versions/markets where provided)
The warning light may come on (and a message on
the multifunction display may appear on certain versions)
to indicate that there is a fault in the Fiat Code system
or, if applicable, the alarm system; in this case, contact a
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.Y
WATER IN DIESEL FILTER
(Multijet versions – amber)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR posi-
tion, the warnintg light turns on but should go off
after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when there is water in the
diesel filter.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.

DPF (PARTICULATE FILTER)
CLEANING IN PROGRESS
(only Multijet with DPF – amber)
When the ignition key is moved to MAR position,
the warnintg light turns on but should go off after a few
seconds. The warning light stays on constantly to notify
the driver that the DPF system needs to eliminate cap-
tured pollutants (particulate) by the regeneration process.
The warning light does not come on during every DPF
regeneration, but only when driving conditions require no-
tification to the driver. The warning light will go off if the
vehicle stays in motion until regeneration has been com-
pleted. The process normally takes about 15 minutes. Op-
timal conditions for completing the process are achieved
by travelling at 60 km/h with engine revs above 2000 rpm.
If this light comes on, it does not mean the car is defec-
tive, so there is no need to take it to a garage. A specific
message will appear on the display when the warning light
comes on (for versions/markets, where provided).
h
Always drive at a speed appropriate to the
traffic conditions, the weather and speed
limits. The engine may be turned off while the
DPF light is on; however, repeated interruption of
the regeneration process may result in premature
degradation of engine oil. For this reason it is al-
ways advisable to wait for the light to go off be-
fore turning off the engine, following the instruc-
tions appearing above. It is not a good idea to
complete DPF regeneration with the vehicle sta-
tionary.
WARNINGSpeed limit exceeded
(for versions/markets where provided)
The display shows the associated message when the car
exceeds the set speed limit (see “Multifunction display”
in the “Dashboard and controls” section).

same type and brand (see the “Engine” paragraph);
– adhere strictly to the spark plug replacement intervals detailed in the Scheduled Servicing Plan;
– it is advisable to have this performed at a Fiat Dealership.
(2)If the car is mainly used in towns and cities, change the engine oil and filter every 12 months.
(3)If the car is mainly used in cities or travels less than 10,000 km a year, change the engine oil and filter every 12 months.
