2020 Alfa Romeo MiTo fuel consumption

7)When using a painting oven, the LPG tank
should be removed from the car and later
carefully refitted at an Alfa Romeo
Dealership. Although the LPG system has
numerous safety features, it is advisable to
proceed as follows every time the vehicle is
not in use for a long period or moved in an
emergency as a result of a breakdown or
accident: unscrew the devices fastening the
cover of the LPG tank, then remove it. Close
the LPG cock rotating the ring nut clockwise
(see "Passive safety / active safety"). Refit
the cover and retighten the fastening
devices.
8)When switching is requested, metallic
noise from the valves which pressurise the
circuit can be heard. For the switching logic
described above, a delay between the valve
ticking and the switching off of the
instrument panel indication is completely
normal.
9)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 39 litres (with a tolerance of
2 litres excess). If the value is above 39 litres
(with tolerance of 2 litres excess), contact an
Alfa Romeo Dealership immediately.10)In particular usage conditions, such as
starting and operation at low ambient
temperature or LPG supply with low propane
content, the system may switch temporarily
to petrol operation, without a visual
indication on the petrol/LPG switch. 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. In
this event, the performed switching is shown
by the orange (petrol) LED lit and the green
(LPG) LED off on the petrol/LPG witch. When
the above conditions stop, the system
automatically restores the LPG operation;
the orange (petrol) LED turns off and the
green (LPG) LED is lit on the switch. To
achieve the automatic switching described
above, make sure that there is always
enough fuel in the petrol tank.
11)Only use LPG for motor vehicles.
12)The LPG supply system is equipped with
a "consumption" function linked to the LED
display of LPG level on the switch. This
function activates only after a consistent
variation in fuel level has been detected. It is
therefore advisable to fill up with fuel at the
first LPG refuelling to obtain a more
"precise" indication of the level.

TPMS SYSTEM
Low tyre pressure
The warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on (on some
versions together with a message on the display) (together with
an acoustic signal) if the pressure in one or more tyres drops
below a preset threshold.
In this way the TPMS warns the driver that one or more tyres may
be dangerously flat and liable to puncture.In any situation in which the message on the
display is "See manual", it is ESSENTIAL to refer
to the contents of the "Wheels" paragraph in the
"Technical specifications" section, strictly
complying with the indications that you find
there.
IMPORTANT Do not continue driving with one or
more flat tyres as handling may be
compromised. Stop the vehicle, avoiding sharp
braking and steering. Replace the wheel
immediately with the spare wheel (where
provided) or carry out a prompt repair using the
dedicated kit (see the paragraph on “Replacing a
wheel” in chapter “In an emergency”) and contact
Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as possible.
TPMS failure
This warning light switches on (on some versions together with a
message on the display) when a TPMS fault is detected.
Should one or more wheels be fitted without sensors, the display
will show a warning message until initial conditions are restored.Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as
possible.
Check tyre pressure
The warning light switches on (on some versions together with a
message in the display) to indicate that the tyre pressure is below
the value recommended to guarantee long tyre life and low fuel
consumption. It may also indicate a slow loss of pressure.
Should two or more tyres be in the condition mentioned above,
the display will show the indications corresponding to each tyre in
sequence. In this case it is advisable to restore the correct
pressure value

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the tables below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by specific
European Directives.
The following procedures are used to measure the fuel consumption:
urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the vehicle;
extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extra-urban use of the car: speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
combined fuel consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle and 63% of the extra-urban
cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the car, trim
level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control system, car load, presence of roof racks and other situations that adversely
affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to different fuel consumption values than those measured. The fuel consumption
will get more regular only after having driven the first 3000 km.
