REFUELLING THE CARBefore refuelling, make sure that the fuel type is
correct. Also stop the engine before refuelling.
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only, with octane number
(RON) no lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic converter leads
to harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing to
air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small
amounts or in an emergency, as this would damage
the catalytic converter beyond repair.
DIESEL ENGINES
Operation at low temperatures
If the outside temperature is very low, diesel
thickens due to the formation of paraffin clots with
consequent defective operation of the fuel supply
system.
In order to avoid these problems, different types of
diesel fuel are distributed according to the season:
summer type, winter type and arctic type
(cold/mountain 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 diesel
fuel. Pour the additive into the tank before the
diesel fuel.
When using or parking the car for a long time in the
mountains or cold areas, it is advisable to refuel
using locally 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
beyond repair and consequently invalidate the
warranty, depending on the damage caused.
If you accidentally refuel with another type of
fuel, do not start the engine, and drain the fuel
tank. If the engine has been run, even for only
a ver y shor t time, you will need to have the entire
fuel system 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 supply
system.
