GRAPHICAL INDEX

54)The tyre repair kit (Fix&Go) provided
with the car (for versions/markets, where
provided) is compatible with the TPMS
sensors; using sealants not equivalent with
that in the original kit may adversely affect
its operation. If sealants not equivalent with
the original one are used, it is
recommended to have the TPMS sensors
checked by a qualified repair centre.REFUELLING THE
CAR
The car features the "Fast Fuel" system,
which prevents refuelling with incorrect
fuels (e.g. diesel for a petrol engine).
Stop the engine before refuelling.
Only refuel with unleaded petrol with
octane rating (RON) not less than 95, in
compliance with the European
specification EN228. In particular, the
4C’s engine has been designed to
comply with all emission limits while
simultaneously guaranteeing minimal
consumption and maximum
performance, using premium-quality
unleaded petrol with octane rating
(RON) of 98 or higher.
In order to prevent damage to the
catalytic converter never introduce even
the smallest amount of leaded petrol,
even in the event of an emergency.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic
converter leads to harmful exhaust
emissions, thus contributing to air
pollution.
IMPORTANT Never introduce leaded
petrol to the tank, even in small
amounts in an emergency, as this
would damage the catalytic converter
beyond repair.
FILLING THE TANK
To ensure that you fill the tank
completely, top up twice after the first
click of the fuel supply gun. Avoid
further top-ups, which could cause
faults in the fuel supply system.
REFUELLING
PROCEDURE
The car features a "Fast Fuel" device,
integrated with the opening for the fuel
tank: it opens and recloses
automatically when the fuel supply gun
is inserted/removed.
The "Fast Fuel" device is provided with
an inhibitor which prevents refuelling
with incorrect fuel.
The refuelling procedure described
below is illustrated on the label
fig. 56 located inside the fuel flap. The
label also indicates the fuel type
(UNLEADED FUEL=petrol).

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

Daytime running lights
(DRL)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
With this function is possible to turn the
daytime running lights on and off.
Proceed as follows to activate or
deactivate this function:
press button SET/briefly. "On"
or "Off" flash on the display, according
to what has been previously set;
pressorto make your choice;
press the SET/button briefly to
go back to the submenu screen or hold
the button down to go back to the main
menu screen without saving;
hold down the SET/button
again to go back to the standard
screen or to the main menu according
to the menu options where you are in.
Exit Menu
This is the last function that closes the
cycle of settings listed in the menu
screen.
Briefly press the SET/
button to go
back to the standard screen without
saving.
Press the
button to return to the first
menu option.
TRIP COMPUTER
The Trip computer is used to display
information on car operation when the
key is turned to MAR-ON.
This function is characterised by two
separate records, called "Trip A" and
"Trip B", where the car's "complete
missions" (journeys) are recorded in a
reciprocally independent manner.
Both records can be reset: i.e. start of a
new journey.
“Trip A” is used to display the values
relating to:
Range
Distance travelled
Average consumption
Instant consumption
Average speed
Trip time (driving time).
“Trip B” is used to display the values
relating to:
Distance travelled B
Average consumption B
Average speed B
Trip time B (driving time).
“Trip B” may be disabled (see "Trip B
Activation/Data (Trip B enablement)"
paragraph). The “Range” and “Instant
consumption" values cannot be reset.
VALUES DISPLAYED
Range
This indicates the approximate distance
that can still be travelled with the fuel in
the tank, assuming that driving style
remains unvaried.
The display will show the reading “- - -
-” when the following events take place:
range value lower than 50 km (or 30
mi)
car parked with engine running for a
long period.
IMPORTANT The range value variation
can be affected by several factors:
driving style, type of route (motorway,
urban, mountain roads, etc.), conditions
of use (load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip
planning must therefore take the above
into account.
Distance travelled
This value shows the distance covered
from the start of the new journey.
Average consumption
This value shows the approximate
average fuel consumption from the start
of the new journey.
Instant consumption
This value shows the instant fuel
consumption. The value is constantly
updated. The display will show “- - - -”
if the car is parked with the engine
running.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption values given in the table below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by
specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
extra-urban cycle: frequent acceleration in all gears, simulating extra-urban use of the car: speed varies between 0 and
120 km/h;
combined 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.
