REFUELLING THE CAR
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the fuel filler is too
small to introduce the nozzle of a leaded petrol pumps.
The petrol octane rating (RON) must not be lower
than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic converter 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 converter beyond repair.
fig. 105
FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 105
To carry out refuelling, open flap A and unscrew cap B.
The cap is fitted with a device C which fastens it to the
lid so it cannot be mislaid.
In some versions, cap B has a lock and key: open flap A,
insert the ignition key then turn it anticlockwise and
unscrew the cap itself.
The sealing may cause a slight pressure increase in the
tank. A suction noise when you release the cap is
therefore entirely normal.
When refuelling, fasten the cap to the device inside the
flap as shown in the
figure.

IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in which any of
the safety devices are activated, contact an Abarth
Dealership to have the activated devices replaced and to
have the whole system checked.
Every check, repair and replacement operation
concerning the airbags must be carried out at Abarth
Dealerships.
If you are having the car scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at an Abarth Dealership first. If the
car changes ownership, the new owner must be
informed of how to use the airbags and the above
warnings: they must also be given this “Owner’s
Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front airbags and front side
bags are deployed differently according to the type of
collision. Non-deployment of one of the devices does
not necessarily indicate a system malfunction. IMPORTANT In the event of a side-on crash, the
system offers the best protection if you are positioned
correctly on the seat because this allows the side bags
to inflate correctly.
IMPORTANT The front airbags and/or side bags may be
deployed if the car is subject to strong impact involving
the underbody area, such as violent impacts against
steps, kerbs or low obstacles, the car entering large
holes or hollows in the road.
IMPORTANT A small amount of dust will be released
when the airbags are deployed. The dust is harmless and
does not indicate the beginning of a fire. Furthermore,
the surface of the deployed bag and the interior of the
car may be covered with dusty residue. This dust can
irritate skin and eyes. Wash with mild soap and water in
the event of exposure.
The expiration dates of the explosive charge and the
clock wire are shown on a label contained in the glove
box. Contact an Abarth Dealership to have the devices
replaced when the expiry date approaches.
