2016 FIAT TALENTO engine

READ THIS CAREFULLY
REFUELLING
Only refuel with automotive diesel conforming to the European specification EN590. The use of other products or mixtures may damage the
engine beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to the damage caused.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Make sure that the handbrake is engaged, put the gear in neutral, fully press the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition
key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has started. In versions with an electronic key, the engine will start as soon as the button on
the starter device is pressed.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They
can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electrical system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance enables the vehicle to perfectly maintain performance and safety characteristics, its environmental friendliness and low
running costs over time.
