REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 conforming to the
European specification EN 228.
Diesel engines: only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590. The use of other prod-
ucts or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and consequently cause lapse of warranty in relation to the
damage caused.
ENGINE STARTING
Petrol engines: make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch
without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition key to AVVand release it as soon as the engine has start-
ed.
Diesel engines: Turn the ignition key to MARand wait for the warning light
mto go out. Turn the ignition key
to AVVand release as soon as the engine starts.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperature during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles
or other flammable material: fire risk.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the components correlated with emissions to
ensure better respect for the environment.

WARNING
When the vehicle is parked
on a slope, do not block the
sliding door open: any accidental
shock may release the door, thus
leaving it free to move forward.
WARNING
Before leaving the vehicle
parked with sliding doors
open, always check that the latch is
engaged.
WARNING
In Cargo versions the side sliding door is
supplied with a spring loaded latch that
stops the door at the end of its stroke
during opening. Block the door by simply
pushing it to the end of its stroke; release
it by pulling forwards with energy.
In any case, make sure that the door is
properly hooked to the system which
keeps the door fully open.Opening/closing from outside

ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICES INSTALLATION
Electrical and electronic devices installed
after buying the vehicle by after-market
service must carry the following label:
Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorises the installation
of transceiving devices provided that they
are installed by a specialised centre ac-
cording to rules of good engineering prac-
tice in compliance with the manufacturer’s
indications.
IMPORTANT Traffic police may not allow
the vehicle on the road if devices are in-
stalled which imply modifications of the
vehicle features. This may also cause the
warranty to become null and void in re-
lation to faults caused by the change or re-
lated to the change either directly or in-
directly.
Fiat Auto S.p.A. shall not be liable for dam-
age caused by the installation of acces-
sories either not supplied or recom-
mended by Fiat Auto S.p.A. and/or not in-
stalled in compliance with the provided in-
structions.RADIO TRANSMITTERS
AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (vehicle mo-
bile phones, CB radios, amateur radio and
similar equipment) shall not be used inside
the vehicle unless a separate aerial is
mounted on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices
inside the passenger compartment (with-
out separated aerial) produces radio-fre-
quency electromagnetic fields which, am-
plified by the resonance effects inside the
passenger compartment, may cause mal-
functioning of the electrical systems in-
stalled on the vehicle. This could com-
promise safety in addition to constituting
a potential hazard for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of
these devices may be affected by the
shielding effect of the vehicle body.
As concerns officially EC-approved mobile
phones (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly com-
ply with the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the mobile phone.
VEHICLE REFUELLING
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only with octane
number (R.O.N.) not 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.

DIESEL ENGINES
Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low, the
diesel thickens due to the formation of
paraffin clots with consequent anomalous
operation of the fuel supply system.
In order to avoid these problems, different
types of diesel are distributed according to
the season: summer type, winter type and
arctic type (cold, mountain areas). If refu-
elling with diesel fuel whose features are not
suitable to the temperature of use, it is ad-
visable to mix TUTELA DIESEL ART addi-
tive in the proportions shown on the con-
tainer with the fuel. Pour the additive in-
to 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.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 in the tank, do not start the engine
and empty the tank. If the engine has
run also for a very short time, you will
need to have the entire fuel feed sys-
tem emptied in addition to the tank.
REFUELLING CAPACITY
To fill the tank completely, top-up twice
after the pump switches off. Further top-
ups could cause faults in the fuel feeding
system.FUEL TANK PLUG fig. 106
Opening
1) Open the flap A-fig. 106pulling it out-
wards, keep the cap Bstill, insert the ig-
nition key in the lock and turn it anti-
clockwise.
2) Turn the cap anti-clockwise and extract
it. The cap has a device Cretaining it to
the flap so it cannot be lost. When refill-
ing, attach the cap to the flap, as illustrat-

soon as possible to have the system
bled. Water may have been introduced
in the tank if this appears immediately
after refuelling: in this case, stop the en-
gine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
