IMPORTANT If the anti-crushing
function (for versions/markets, where
provided) is activated 5 times in only 1
minute, the system will automatically
enter “recovery” mode (self-protection).
This condition is apparent from the
window closing in stages.
If this occurs, restore the system as
follows:
open the windows;
or
turn the ignition key to the STOP
position and then to MAR.
If no malfunction is present, the window
returns to its normal operation
automatically.
IMPORTANT With the key off or
removed, the windows remain activated
for about two minutes and are
deactivated as soon a door is opened.
21)
MANUAL FRONT
WINDOWS
On some versions, the front windows
are opened and closed manually.
Wind the handle to open/close.
WARNING
21)Improper use of the electric windows
can be dangerous. Before and during their
operation ensure that passengers are not
at risk from the moving glass, either by
personal objects caught in the mechanism
or struck by it directly. When leaving the
car, always remove the ignition key to
avoid the risk of injury due to accidental
operation of the electric windows.
BONNET
OPENING
Proceed as follows:
pull lever A fig. 44 in the direction
indicated by the arrow;
operate the lever B fig. 45 and lift
the bonnet;
lift the bonnet;
lift the engine bonnet supporting
lever A fig. 46 and move it until it clicks.

22)
CLOSING
Proceed as follows:
lift the bonnet with one hand and
pull the device A fig. 47 towards
yourself while lowering lever B;
lower the bonnet to approximately
20 centimetres from the engine
compartment and let it drop. Make sure
that the bonnet is completely closed
and not only fastened by the safety
catch by trying to open it. If it is not
perfectly closed, do not try to press the
bonnet down but open it and repeat
the procedure.
IMPORTANT A plate summarising the
described bonnet opening/closing
operations is affixed under the bonnet
(see fig. 48).
23)
WARNING
22)Before opening the bonnet, make sure
that windscreen wiper arm is not raised,
but is rather positioned against the
windscreen.
23)For safety reasons, the bonnet must
always be properly closed while the car is
travelling. Make sure that the bonnet is
properly closed and that the lock is
engaged. If you notice when driving that
the bonnet has not been properly locked,
stop immediately and close the bonnet
correctly.

WARNING
28)If you are travelling in areas with few
filling stations and you want to transport
fuel in a spare tank, comply with the law by
using only an approved, suitably secured
tank. In the event of a collision the fire
risk is increased all the same.
29)Never exceed the maximum allowed
load in the boot (see "Technical
Specifications" section). Also make sure
that the objects you place in the luggage
compartment have been properly secured,
to avoid them from being thrown forward
consequent to sudden braking and injuring
your passengers.
30)You must not use the folded rear seat
to carry luggage. The load could be thrown
forward into the backrest of the front
seats, seriously injuring the occupants.

INTRODUCTION
The Fiat Fiorino Natural Power version
features two fuel systems, one for
petrol and one for natural gas
(methane).
Selecting the type of fuel supply
Fiat Fiorino Natural Power is configured
to run normally on methane gas.
When the methane is running out and
the pressure in the cylinder is close
to the correct operating limit, the
system automatically switches to petrol
operation.
The engine always starts up on petrol,
with automatic switching to methane
when the best conditions are achieved
(engine water temperature, minimum
engine rpm limit) for switching to
methane.
Therefore, there must always be some
petrol in the tank (at least 1/4 full), in
order not to compromise the operation
of the fuel pump.For this reason there must always
be petrol in the tank.
The petrol/methane switch fig. 65,
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. 66 and fig. 67 are the
tank that contains methane in
compressed gaseous state (200 rated
bar at 15 °C).
65F0T0343

Page 38 of 220

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. 68. 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.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. 69 or
fig. 70.

If you want the car to run on petrol,
press the button fig. 71 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).
WARNING
31)The Fiat Fiorino Natural Power is
equipped with a high pressure methane
fuel supply system, designed to operate at
a rated pressure of 200 bar. It is dangerous
to stretch the system with higher
pressures. To prevent damage to the
methane system parts when towing or
lifting the vehicle, follow the instructions in
the main handbook in the chapter: "Towing
the vehicle". If there is a problem with the
methane system, only contact a Fiat
Dealership. Do not alter the methane
system configuration or components. They
are designed exclusively for the Fiat
Fiorino Natural Power. The use of other
components or materials could cause
malfunctions and prejudice safety.
32)When oven painting, the cylinders must
be removed from the vehicle and refitted
by a Fiat Dealership. Although the methane
system has numerous safety features, it is
advisable to close the manual tap on the
cylinders every time the vehicle is not
in use for a long period, transported on
other vehicles or moved in an emergency
as a result of a breakdown or accident.
33)If gas is smelt, switch from methane
operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to a Fiat Dealerships to
have the vehicle checked and possible
system faults supply excluded.

WARNING
5)Regardless of the last fuel system used,
at the following engine starting, after the
initial petrol stage, the system will
automatically switch to methane.
6)At the time of the switching request
there will be a metallic noise from the
valves which are pressurising the circuit
(more obvious with the ignition key in
the MAR-ON position). For the switching
logic described above, a delay between the
valve ticking and the switching off of the
instrument panel indication is completely
normal.
7)Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.
