KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Page 105 of 367

When using or parking the vehicle for a
long time in the mountains or cold
areas, it is advisable to refuel using
locally available diesel fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over 50% full.
18)
FILLING THE TANK
To fill the tank completely, top-up twice
after the first click of the fuel supply
gun. Further top-ups could cause faults
in the fuel supply system.
FUEL TANK CAP
For refuelling, open flap A fig. 140 and
unscrew cap B turning the ignition
key anticlockwise; the cap is fitted with
a safety device C which fastens it to
the flap so it cannot be mislaid.The sealing may cause a slight pressure
increase in the tank. A little breathing
off, while slackening the cap is
absolutely normal.
When refuelling, fasten the cap to the
device inside the flap as shown in
fig. 140.
88)
IMPORTANT
18) Only refuel with automotive
diesel complying with the
European specification EN 590.
The use of other products or
mixtures may damage the engine
beyond repair and consequently
invalidate the warranty, due to the
damage caused. If you
accidentally introduce other types
of fuel into the tank, do not start
the engine. Empty the tank. If the
engine has been run for even an
extremely limited amount of time,
you must not only drain the fuel
tank, but the rest of the supply
circuit as well.
WARNING
88) Do not bring naked flames or lit
cigarettes near to the fuel tank
opening: fire risk. Keep your face
away from the fuel filler to prevent
breathing in harmful vapours.PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENTThe following devices are used for
reducing diesel fuel engine emissions:
❒oxidising catalytic converter;
❒exhaust gas recirculation system
(EGR);
❒particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/
markets, where provided).
89)
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a
mechanical filter, integral to the exhaust
system, that physically traps carbon
particles present in the exhaust gases
of diesel engines.

BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by
pushing, towing or driving downhill.
This could cause fuel to flow into the
catalytic converter and damage it
beyond repair.
WARNING
136) This procedure must be
performed by qualified personnel
as incorrect actions may cause
high-intensity electrical discharge.
Furthermore, battery fluid is
poisonous and corrosive: avoid
contact with skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and lighted
cigarettes away from the battery
and do not cause sparks.

warning triangle, hazard lights, etc.);
❒take the extension arm and the
wrench from the tool box/bag under
the passenger seat (see
“Compartment under front passenger
seat” in the “Know your vehicle”
section);
