Identifier for diesel-type fuels
The symbol shown below helps you to
recognise the correct type of fuel to use
in your vehicle. Before proceeding with
refuelling, check the symbols inside the
fuel filler flap (where provided) and
compare them with the symbols shown
on the fuel pump (where provided).
B7: Diesel fuel containing up to 7%
(V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Esters – Eg. EN
590 compliant diesel.
The diesel engine are compatible with
B7 type diesel (containing 7% fatty acid
methyl esters) conforming to European
standards EN590.
42)
IMPORTANT
38)Diesel-powered vehicles to comply with
the Euro 4 and Euro 5 regulation are
designed to use only diesel fuel that meets
the EN 590 standard. Use of any other type
of diesel fuel would adversely affect the
engine’s performance and durability.
39)Your vehicle is designed to use only
diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio
diesel, methylester, etc.) would adversely
affect the engine’s performance and
durability.
40)For diesel engines, only use diesel fuel
for motor vehicles in accordance with EN
590 European specifications. 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.
41)If proper “winter” fuel is not used in
winter, the diesel preheat indicator lamp
may blink and the engine speed may not
rise above the idling speed because of fuel
freezing. In this case, keep the engine idling
for approximately 10 minutes, then turn off
the ignition switch or put the operation
mode in OFF and immediately turn it on or
put in ON again to confirm that the diesel
preheat indicator lamp is off. Refer to
“Diesel preheat indicator lamp”.42)Do not use more than 7%
concentration of fatty acid methyl esters
(bio diesel) by volume. Use of more than
7% concentration would adversely affect
the engine’s performance and durability.

1. Open the cover (1). Insert the key in
the cap (2) and unlock it.
2. Turn the cap and remove it.
109)
3. Insert the gun in the tank port as far
as it goes.
4. When the gun stops automatically,
do not fill with fuel any more.5. To close, turn the fuel cap slowly
clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds, then gently push the fuel tank
filler door closed.
WARNING
98)When handling fuel, comply with the
safety regulations displayed by garages
and filling stations.
99)Fuel is highly flammable and explosive.
You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling it. When refueling your
vehicle, always turn the engine off and
keep away from flames, sparks and
smoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well ventilated outdoor areas.
100)Before removing the fuel cap, be sure
to get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the vehicle or fuel
pump. Any static electricity on your body
could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor.
101)Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing
the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not let
any other person come near the fuel tank
filler. If you allowed a person to help you
and that person was carrying static
electricity, fuel vapor could be ignited.
102)Do not move away from the fuel tank
filler until refueling is finished. If you moved
away and did something else (for example,
sitting on a seat) part-way through the
refueling process, you could pick up a
fresh charge of static electricity.
103)Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor.
Fuel contains toxic substances.104)Keep the doors and windows closed
while refueling the vehicle. If they were
open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.
105)If the fuel cap must be replaced, use
only a Fiat genuine part.
106)Since the fuel system may be under
pressure, remove the fuel cap slowly. This
relieves any pressure or vacuum that might
have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear a
hissing sound, wait until it stops before
removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, injuring you or others.
107)Do not apply any object/plug to the
end of the filler which is not provided for
the car. The use of non-compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure
increase inside the tank, resulting in
dangerous situations.
108)Do not use a mobile phone near the
refuelling pump: risk of fire.
109)Do not tilt the gun.

6. Examine the radiator hoses for
coolant leakage and the drive belt for
looseness or damage. If there is
anything wrong with the cooling system
or drive belt, we recommend you to
have it checked and repaired.
WARNING
284)Do not open the bonnet while steam
is coming from the engine compartment. It
could cause steam or hot water to spurt
out, causing burns. Hot water could spurt
out even when there is no steam coming
out, and some parts will be very hot. Be
very careful when opening the bonnet.
285)Be careful of hot steam, which could
be blowing off the reserve tank cap.
286)Do not attempt to remove the radiator
cap while the engine is hot.
287)Be careful not to get your hands or
clothes caught in the cooling fan.
288)Make sure that the engine has cooled
down before removing the radiator cap (A),
because hot steam or boiling water
otherwise will gush from the filler port and
may scald you.
IMPORTANT
162)Do not add coolant while the engine is
hot. Suddenly adding cold coolant could
damage the engine. Wait for the engine to
cool down, then add coolant a little at a
time.
BLEEDING THE FUEL
SYSTEM
The fuel system should be bled to
remove air as described below if the
fuel supply is exhausted during travel.
Pump the hand pump (A) at the top of
the fuel filter until the hand pump
becomes stiff.
Then try again to start the engine. If the
engine does not start, repeat the
process above.
289) 290)
WARNING
289)Do not smoke or have any other open
flame near the vehicle while bleeding the
fuel system.
290)Be sure to carefully clean away any
spilt fuel which could ignite and cause a
fire.
