of heat or flame.
Do not wash the filler area with a
high-pressure washer.

FUEL TANK (2/5)
Fuel grade
Use a high-grade fuel that complies
with the legislation in force in each
country. It must conform to the specifi-
cations given on label B inside the fuel
filler flap.
Refer to the “Engine specifications”
table in Section 6.
Vehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
Always use unleaded petrol or fuel
containing a maximum of 85 percent
ethanol (E85).
In very cold conditions it may be difficult
or even impossible to start the engine.
To avoid this problem, use unleaded
petrol.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
When the fuel is changed the engine
must adjust, which may cause minor in-
conveniences for a few minutes (longer
starting times, cutting out, etc.).
Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle to
open the valve and insert it fully before
turning it on to fill the fuel tank (risk of
splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi-
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The valve and its sur-
round must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent
fuel odour you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and stay clear
of the traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
Petrol version
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) should match
the information given on the label B lo-
cated inside the fuel filler flap.
Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms to the specifications given on
the label inside fuel flap B.

FUEL TANK (3/5)
LPG versions
Useful capacity of fuel tank: approx.
34 litres.
Filling up with LPG
Engage the handbrake, stop the engine,
switch off the ignition and switch off the
lights.
Always respect the safety instructions
given at filling stations.
When filling the fuel tank, it is recom-
mended to always fill up completely.
When the pump stops delivering LPG,
or when the pump flow reduces signi-
ficantly, the maximum LPG level has
been reached.
At this point, do not attempt to carry on
filling.Filling stations without self-service
If service station staff fill your vehicle
with LPG, give them a filling adapter 4,
as supplied in a pouch in the glovebox.
IMPORTANT:
The adapter 4 depends on the coun-
try in which the vehicle is sold.
Before travelling to another country,
please consult an authorised dealer.

FUEL TANK (4/5)
Filling stations with self-service
We recommend that you wear gloves
when handling the LPG pistol.
Open your vehicle’s tank cover and un-
screw the cap 5 from the end piece of
the LPG filler 6.
Carefully follow the information explai-
ning how to refill using the LPG distri-
butor.
When the pump finishes or if it has dif-
ficulties operating, this means that the
maximum tank fill level (80%) has been
reached.
The filling will stop as soon as you re-
lease the button. Release the stop
lever (a small amount of gas may be re-
leased), lift the pistol and place it on the
distributor.
Replace the cap 5 to avoid any water
or foreign bodies from entering the
system.

Running out of fuel on diesel
versions
Vehicles with priming pump 7
After a breakdown caused by comple-
tely running out of fuel, the system must
be reprimed before the engine is res-
tarted:
Operate priming bulb 7 until the fuel
flows through the hose 8.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, contact an approved dealer.
The engine may be hot
when working in close proxi-
mity. In addition, the engine
cooling fan may come on at
any moment.
Risk of injury.
No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wiring,
fuel circuit, injector, protection
covers, etc.) as this may be dan-
gerous (such work must be under-
taken by qualified Network person-
nel).

Vehicles without manual priming
pump
Put the ignition key in “Ignition On” (M)
position and wait a few minutes before
starting. This will enable the fuel circuit
to be primed. If the engine does not
start, repeat the procedure.
