For this reason there must always
be petrol in the tank.
The petrol/methane switch fig. 63,
amongst the controls in the dashboard,
makes it possible to select petrol
operation. The system does not switch
automatically to methane operation if
the petrol runs out.
IMPORTANT If gas is smelled, switch
from methane operation to petrol
operation and immediately go to a Fiat
Dealership to have the vehicle checked
and possible system faults excluded.
CYLINDERS
The vehicle has two cylinders (total
capacity about 77 litres) located under
the floor and protected by two special
guards.
The cylinders fig. 64 and fig. 65 are the
tank that contains methane in
compressed gaseous state (200 rated
bar at 15 °C).The methane, stored in the canisters at
high pressure, flows through a
dedicated pipe to reach the pressure
regulator/reduction unit which supplies
the 4 methane injectors at low pressure
(about 6 bar).
Cylinder capacity: about 13 kg. The
amount of methane depends on the
outside temperature, the supply
pressure, the quality of the gas and the
type of refuelling system. Total cylinder
volume about 77 litres.Cylinder certification
The methane canisters are certified in
accordance with EEC Regulation 110.
The cylinders must be inspected, in
accordance with ECE Regulation
Procedure no. 110, every 4 years
from the vehicle registration date or
in accordance with specific
regulations in individual countries.
PETROL/METHANE
SWITCH
This engine normally runs on methane
except during starting when it runs
on petrol. Switching to methane takes
place automatically and is shown on
the instrument panel display by
switching off the
signal in the display.
Methane fuel reserve
The level of methane in the cylinders is
indicated by the four vertical bars
near the word CNG on the instrument
panel display fig. 66. When the residual
amount of methane is lower than 1/5
of the capacity of the cylinders, the first
level and the edges of the bars of the
other 3 levels flash until the next
methane refuelling. A specific message
will appear on the display in addition
to an acoustic warning.63F0T0343

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

If the methane has run out, switching to
petrol takes place automatically. In this
case the display shows the
icon
just above the CNG wording and all the
bars of the edges for the empty
notches light up constantly, regardless
of the type of supply; see fig. 67 or
fig. 68.If you want the car to run on petrol,
press the button fig. 69 located
between the controls in the dashboard.
The LED on the button switching on
indicates that the request for switching
has taken place correctly.The actual change to the chosen fuel
system takes place depending on
the vehicle usage conditions to
guarantee switching in absolute safety
and will be confirmed by the
warning
light in the instrument panel display
coming on/going off.
Manual switching of the operating
mode from petrol to methane and
vice versa only occurs if the engine
speed is below 2000 rpm.
In addition, in the case of starting at
outside temperatures of below around
-10°C, the switching times from Petrol
to Methane increase to allow the
pressure regulator/reduction unit to
become warm enough.
IMPORTANT If switching takes place
during acceleration or pick-up, there
may be a brief flat spot (drop in power).

SUITABILITY OF PASSENGER SEATS FOR THE USE OF CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEMS
The vehicles designed to carry people (homologation M1) comply with the new European Directive 2000/3/EC which governs
the arrangement possibilities for child restraint systems on the seats of the vehicle as shown in the following table:
Group Weight range Front passenger Rear passenger
Airbag enabled Airbag deactivated
Group 0, 0+ up to 13 kgXUU
Group 1 9 - 18 kgXUU
Group 2 15 - 25 kgUUU
Group 3 22–36 kgUUU
X Seat not suitable for children in this weight category.
U suitable for child restraint systems in the "Universal" category, according to European Standard ECE-R44 for the specified "Groups".
WARNING
67)SERIOUS DANGER: When an active passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install rear facing child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the child regardless of the severity of the impact. It is advisable to always
carry children in a child restraint system on the rear seat, which is the most protected position in the event of a collision.
68)Should it be necessary to carry a child on the passenger side front seat in a rearward-facing child restraint system, the passenger side
front airbag and side bag (for versions/markets, where provided) must be deactivated through the Setup menu. Deactivation should be
verified by checking whether the
warning light is switched on in the central dashboard. Move the passenger's seat as far back as possible
to avoid contact between the child seat and the dashboard.
69)On the sun visor there is a label with suitable symbols reminding the user that it is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if a rearward facing
child restraint system is fitted. Always comply with the instructions on the passenger side sun visor (see the "Supplementary Restraint
System (SRS) - Airbag" paragraph).
70)Do not move the front or rear seat if a child is seated on it or on the dedicated child restraint system.
71)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint system may result in an inefficient protection system. In the event of an accident the child restraint
system may become loose and the child may be injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint system for newborns or children, strictly comply
with the instructions provided by the Manufacturer.
79

Below is a summary of
the main safety rules to
be followed when
carrying children
Main recommendations to carry
children safely:
Install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
Keep children in rearward facing
child restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
If the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated always check the
warning light always lighted on the
central dashboard to make sure that
it has actually been deactivated fig. 95.
Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint system.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other papers and this
handbook. Do not use second-hand
child restraint systems without
instructions.
Only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry two
children using one child restraint
system.
Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.
Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No-one can hold
a child in the case of a crash.
If the vehicle has been involved in a
road accident, replace the child
restraint system with a new one. In
addition, and depending on the type of
child restraint system installed, replace
the Isofix anchorages or the seat belt
with which the child restraint system
was connected.
The rear head restraint can be
removed if needed to install a child
restraint system. The headrest must
always be fitted in the vehicle if the seat
is used by an adult passenger or a
child sitting in a restraint system without
a backrest.
WARNING
76)Fit the child restraint system only when
the vehicle is stationary. The child restraint
system is correctly fixed to the brackets
when you hear the click. Follow the
instructions for positioning, fitting and
removing which the child restraint system
manufacturer must supply together with
the restraint system. If a Universal/ISOFIX
child restraint system is not fixed to all
three anchorages, it will not be able to
protect the child correctly. In a crash, the
child could be seriously or fatally injured.
77)Do not use the same lower anchorage
to install more than one child restraint
system.
