fuel tank.
Etank empty.
Ffull tank.
The reserve warning light Aturns on to
indicate that approximately 7 litres of fu-
el are left in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost
empty: the gaps in fuel delivery could dam-
age the catalyst.
See the indications given in paragraph
“At the filling station”.
IMPORTANT The needle sets to Ewith
warning light Aflashing to indicate that the
system is failing. In this event contact Fiat
Dealership to have the system checked.ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGE fig. 16
This shows the temperature of the engine
coolant fluid and begins working when the
fluid temperature exceeds approx. 50°C.
Under normal conditions, the needle
should hover around the middle of the
scale according to the working conditions.
CLow engine coolant temperature.
HHigh engine coolant temperature.The turning on of the warning light B(on
certain versions with a message on the
multifunction display) indicates that the
coolant fluid temperature is too high; in
this case, stop the engine and contact a Fi-
at Dealership.

PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To prevent errors, the diameter of the fu-
el tank filler is too small to introduce a lead
petrol pump filler. Use petrol with a rat-
ed octane number (R.O.N.) not lower
than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst leads
to harmful exhaust emissions, thus con-
tributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol,
even in small amount or in an emergency,
as this would damage the catalyst beyond
repair.DIESEL ENGINES
If the outside temperature is very low,
the diesel thickens due to the formation
of paraffins and could clog the diesel fu-
el filter.
In order to avoid these problems, differ-
ent types of diesel are distributed ac-
cording to the season: summer type, win-
ter type and arctic type (cold, mountain
areas).
Topping up with diesel fuel not complying
with EN590 European Norm might make
it necessary to replace the filter more fre-
quently than indicated in the Service
schedule.
If refuelling with diesel fuel not suitable for
the current temperature, mix diesel fuel
with TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in the
proportions stated on the can, putting first
the antifreeze in the tank and then the
diesel fuel.
If driving or parking the vehicle for a long
period in cold areas/mountains, refuel with
the diesel fuel available at local filling sta-
tions.
In this situation you are also recom-
mended to have in the tank an amount of
fuel 50% higher than usable capacity.The car must only be filled
with diesel fuel for motor ve-
hicles, in compliance with Eu-
ropean Standard EN590. The
use of other products or mixtures may
irreparably damage the engine with in-
validation of the warranty due to the
damage caused. In the event of acci-
dentally filling with another type of fu-
el, do not start the engine and empty
the tank. If the engine has been run
even for only a very short time, in ad-
dition to the tank, it is also necessary
to drain out the whole fuel circuit.
