Topping for additive Diesel
Emissions AdBlue (UREA)
When refuelling the additive for Diesel
Emissions AdBlue (UREA) with
dispensing gun:
park the vehicle on ground level;
turn off the engine by turning the key
in the OFF position;
open the fuel flap A fig. 137 and
then unscrew and remove the cap C
fig. 137 from the UREA filler;
insert the dispensing gun for topping
up UREA in the filler neck;
immediately stop filling the tank
UREA if it shows one of the cases listed
below:
- if AdBlue is spilled out of the filler
neck, clean up well the area and
proceed to filling up again;
- if during filling the dispensing gun
clicks, it indicates that the UREA tank is
full. Do not proceed with the
replacement, to prevent spillage of
AdBlue (UREA).
When you have finished topping up,
refit the cap C fig. 137 on the UREA
filler by turning it clockwise until it is fully
tightened;
turn the key in the pawl starter in the
ON position (no need to start the
engine);
wait for the warning on the
instrument panel to switch off before
moving the vehicle, the warning light
may stay on for a few seconds to half a
minute. In case of motor start-up and
movement of the vehicle, the warning
light will remain on for a longer period of
time, but there are no problems on the
engine functionality. If topping up is
done with the UREA tank empty, you
have to wait two minutes before
starting the vehicle.
When refuelling the additive for
Diesel Emissions AdBlue (UREA)
with bottle:
park the vehicle on ground level;
turn off the engine by turning the key
in the OFF position;
open the fuel flap A fig. 137 and
then unscrew and remove the cap C
fig. 137 from the UREA filler;
screw the bottle of AdBlue (UREA)
into the filler until it is fully tightened (fig.
138, ref. 1);
press the bottom of the bottle
towards the filler to release the bottle's
safety valve and start topping up (fig.
138 ref. 2);
if the level of AdBlue in the bottle
does not drop while topping up, it
means that you have filled the reservoir,
so pull the bottle towards you to
re-close the bottle's safety valve and
unscrew the bottle from the filler (fig.
138, ref. 3);
after removing the bottle, refit the
cap C fig. 137 on the UREA filler by
turning it clockwise until it is fully
tightened;

Fuel storage - Diesel Fuel
133)
In case of the storage of massive
amounts of fuel, good maintenance is
essential. The fuel contaminated with
water favours the proliferation of
"microbes". These microbes create a
"slime" that can clog the filter system
and fuel pipes. Remove water from the
supply tank and regularly replace the
filter pipe.
NOTE When a diesel engine runs out of
fuel, air is blown through the fuel
system.
AdBlue storage (UREA)
AdBlue (UREA) is considered a very
stable product with a long shelf life. If is
stored at temperatures between -12
°C and 32 °C, it can be stored at least
for a year.
Since UREA can freeze at temperatures
at or below -11 °C, the system was
designed to operate also in these cold
environments, thanks to an automatic
heating system which operates when
the engine is started.NOTE When you need to keep the
AdBlue (UREA), it is important to know
that:any container or part that comes in
contact with the UREA must be compatible
with it (plastic or stainless steel). Materials
such as copper, brass, aluminium, iron
or stainless steel is not as susceptible to
corrosion by UREA are to be avoided;
if UREA is spilled from a container,
completely clean the area.
METHANE ENGINES
(NATURAL POWER)
METHANE GAS FILLER
The methane filler is located near the
petrol filler.
To access the filler, unscrew the cap A
fig. 139.The profile of the filler is of the universal
type, compatible with Italian and NGV1
standards.
In some European countries adapters
are considered ILLEGAL (e.g. in
Germany).
For service stations with cubic metre
(m3) nozzles (pressure differential),
to measure the residual pressure in the
cylinder, the non-return valves must
be released by delivering a small
amount of methane.
The other plates (provided with the
vehicle documentation) contain the date
for the first inspection of the cylinders.
