LPG TANK
The car has a (pressurised) tank A fig. 4 9
for collecting LPG in a liquid state. It
is located in the spare wheel
compartment with suitable protection.
LPG tank certification
The LPG tank is certified in accordance
with the regulations in force.In Italy, the tank has a life of 10 years
starting from the vehicle registration
date. If the vehicle has been registered
in a country other than Italy, the
duration and the testing/inspection
procedures of the LPG tank can vary
depending on the national laws of that
country. In any case, when the time limit
in the individual country has run out,
contact a Fiat Dealership to have the
tank replaced.SELECTION OF
PETROL/LPG SUPPLY
TYPE
The (petrol/LPG switch) button A fig. 50
allows drivers to select petrol or LPG
operation.
If, during LPG operation, the same runs
out, the vehicle switches to petrol
automatically and all the bars of the
digital gauge on the display switch off,
next to the LPG warning. This condition
persists until the next LPG refuelling.The engine always starts up on petrol,
with automatic switching to LPG when
the best conditions are achieved
(engine water temperature, minimum
engine rpm limit) for switching to LPG.
SUPPLIES
LPG
Maximum refuelling capacity (reserve
included): 38.4 litres. The figure already
takes into account the 80% tank filling
limit and the residual fluid required
for correct priming and it is the
maximum permitted capacity. In
addition, after different refuelling
processes, this figure could vary due to
differences between the network pump
supply pressures, pumps having
different supply/locking features, tank
not completely run out of fuel.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
❒close the LPG cock by rotating the
ring nut C fig. 48 clockwise;
❒refit the cover and retighten the
fastening devices.

IMPORTANT In order to avoid
inconsistent information by the LPG
gauge on the instrument panel, it is
recommended to refill with at least 10
litres each time.
WARNING
35)Please note that in some countries
(including Italy) there are legal restrictions
in force for parking/garaging motor
vehicles with gas that has a higher density
than air; LPG comes under this category.
36)Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.
37)If gas is smelled, switch from methane
operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to a Fiat Dealership to have
the vehicle checked and possible system
faults excluded.
WARNING
16)The vehicle is equipped with a gaseous
LPG injection system designed specifically
for it: it is therefore absolutely forbidden
to alter the configuration of the system or
its components. The use of other
components or materials could cause
malfunctions and lead to a reduction
in safety; therefore, in the case of
problems, contact a Fiat Dealership. When
towing or lifting the car, follow the
instructions in the paragraph on "Towing
the car" to prevent damage to the gas
methane system parts.17)The system operates at temperatures
ranging between −20 °C and 100 °C.
18)When painting in an oven, the LPG
tank must be removed from the vehicle and
later refitted by a Fiat Dealership. Although
the LPG system has numerous safety
features, it is advisable to proceed
as follows every time the car is not in use
for a long period or moved in an
emergency as a result of a breakdown or
accident: unscrew the fastening devices of
the LPG tank, then remove it. Close the
LPG cock rotating the ring nut C clockwise
(see "Passive/active Safety"). Refit the
cover and retighten the fastening devices.
19)Only use LPG fuel for motor vehicles.
20)It is strictly forbidden to use any
additive in the LPG. Periodically (at least
once every six months) it is advisable to let
the LPG in the tank run out and, at the
first refuelling, to check that it does not
exceed the maximum capacity of 38.4 litres
(reserve included) (with a tolerance of 2
litres excess). If the level is above 38.4 litres
(reserve included) contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately.
21)When switching from petrol to methane
is requested, a metal noise is heard from
the valves which pressurise the circuit. As a
result of the switching logic described
above, the delay between the ticking of the
valve and the switching off of the warning
on the instrument panel is entirely normal.22)In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature or supply of LPG with low
content of propane, the system may
temporarily switch to petrol operation,
without indicating the performed switching
on the instrument panel. In the event of
low LPG levels in the tank or request for
high performance (e.g. overtaking, car fully
laden, steep hills) the system may
automatically switch to petrol operation to
guarantee the engine power requested; the
green warning light on the instrument
panel switches on to indicate this. When
the above conditions are no longer
present, the system automatically restores
LPG operation; the green warning light
switches off. To achieve the above
automatic switching, make sure that there
is enough fuel in the petrol tank.

IMPORTANT Depending on the country,
there are various types of adapters for
LPG refuelling pumps. Filler adapter,
supplied with the vehicle and located in
a special case, is specifically designed
for the country in which the vehicle is
sold. If you are in a different country,
find out what type of adaptor is used
there.

European countries adapters are
considered ILLEGAL (e.g. in Germany).
