REFUELLING THE CARPETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the fu-
el 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 con-
verter 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 con-
verter beyond repair.DIESEL ENGINES
If the outside temperature is very low, the
diesel thickens due to the formation of
paraffin clots and could clog the diesel fu-
el filter.
In order to avoid these problems, differ-
ent types of diesel are distributed ac-
cording to the season: summer type, win-
ter type and arctic type (cold, mountain
areas).
If refuelling with diesel fuel whose speci-
fications are not suitable for the usage
temperature, it is advisable to mix in the
TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the pro-
portions shown on the container. Pour
the additive into the tank before the fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle for
a long time in the mountains or cold ar-
eas, 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 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 addition to the tank.

WARNING
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a mechan-
ical filter, integral with the exhaust system,
that physically traps particulates present
in the exhaust gases of diesel engines.
The diesel particulate filter is needed to
eliminate almost all particulates in com-
pliance with current/future legislation.
During normal use of the vehicle, the en-
gine control unit records a set of data (e.g.
travel time, type of route, temperatures,
etc.) and it will then calculate how much
particulate has been trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps particu-
late, it should be regenerated (cleaned)
at regular intervals by burning the carbon
particles.
The regeneration procedure is handled
automatically by the engine control unit
according to the filter conditions and ve-
hicle use conditions.During regeneration, there may be: a lim-
ited increase in minimum revs, a slight in-
crease in fumes and high exhaust temper-
atures. These are not faults; they do not
impair vehicle performance or damage the
environment.
If the dedicated message is displayed, re-
fer to the “Warning lights and messages”
section.
The diesel particulate filter
(DPF) (for versions/markets,
where provided) reaches high tem-
peratures during normal operation.
Do not park the vehicle on grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or other flam-
mable material: fire hazard.

DEMANDING USE
OF THE CARShould the car be used predominantly in
one of the following particularly demand-
ing conditions:❒
trailer or caravan towing;
❒
dusty roads;
❒
short (less than 7-8 km) and repeated
journeys in sub-zero temperatures;
❒
frequently idling engine or long-dis-
tance, low-speed driving (e.g. door-to-
door deliveries) or lengthy inactivity;
you should perform the following inspec-
tions more frequently than shown on the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
❒
check front disc brake pad conditions
and wear;
❒
check cleanliness of bonnet and boot
locks, and cleanliness and lubrication of
linkages;
❒
visually inspect the conditions of: en-
gine, gearbox, transmission, pipes and
tubes (exhaust – fuel – brakes), rubber
parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒
check battery charge and liquid level
(electrolyte);
❒
visually inspect the condition of the ac-
cessory drive belts;
❒
check pollen filter and replace, if re-
quired;
❒
check air filter and replace, if required.
REGULAR CHECKSEvery 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and, if necessary, top up:❒
engine coolant fluid level;
❒
brake fluid level;
❒
windscreen washer level;
❒
tyre pressure and conditions.
❒
operation of lights (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard lights, etc.);
❒
operation of the windscreen wiper/
washer system, position and wear of
the windscreen and rear window wiper
blades;
Every 3,000 km, check and top up, if re-
quired, the engine oil level.
You are recommended to use PETRONAS
LUBRICANTS products, which have been
designed and produced specifically for
Fiat cars (see table “Capacities” in the
“Technical specifications” section).
