96)Do not spray water or spill beverages
inside the vehicle. If the switches, wires, or
electrical components become wet, they
could malfunction or cause a vehicle fire. If
you accidentally spill a beverage, wipe up
as much liquid as possible and immediately
consult a Fiat Dealership.
97)Do not put a hanger or any heavy or
pointed object on the coat hook. If the
curtain airbag was activated, any such item
could be propelled away with great force
and could prevent the curtain airbag from
inflating correctly. Hang clothes directly on
the coat hook (without using a hanger).
Make sure there are no heavy or sharp
objects in the pockets of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.
IMPORTANT
32)When the accessory socket is not in
use, be sure to close the lid, because the
socket might become clogged by foreign
material and be short-circuited.
33)Never leave lighters, canned
carbonated beverage, and spectacles in
the cabin when parking the vehicle in hot
sunshine. The cabin will become extremely
hot, so lighters and other flammable items
may catch fire and unopened drink cans
may rupture. Also, spectacles with plastic
lenses or materials could deform or crack.
34)Put out matches and cigarettes before
they are placed in the ashtray.
35)Always close the ashtray. If left open,
other cigarette butts in the ashtray may be
rekindled.36)Be sure to use a “plug-in” type
accessory operating at 12 V and at 120 W
or less. When using more than one socket
at the same time, make sure that the
electrical accessories are 12 V accessories
and that the total power consumption does
not exceed 120 W.
37)Long use of the electric appliance
without running the engine may run down
the battery.
FUEL SELECTION
Recommended fuel:Cetane number
(EN590) 51 or higher
38) 39) 40) 41)
NOTE For diesel fuel, due to the
separation of paraffin, the fluidity
decreases considerably as the
temperature falls. Because of this fact
there are two kinds of fuel: “summer”
and “winter”. This must be considered
in winter use. Select either of the two
kinds of fuel in accordance with
ambient temperature.
Above -5 °C: “Summer” diesel
Below -5 °C: “Winter” diesel
When travelling abroad, find out in
advance about the fuels served in local
service stations.
Poor-quality diesel fuel can cause
deposits to form in the injector, resulting
in black smoke and rough idling.
If these problems occur, you are
advised to add a cleaning additive to
the diesel fuel when you refuel the
vehicle. The additive will break up and
remove the deposits, thereby returning
the engine to a normal condition.
Be sure to use a FCA GENUINE
DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER.
Using an unsuitable additive could
make the engine malfunction. For
details, please contact your Fiat
Dealsership.

Graphical expression for consumer
information
Identifier for diesel-type fuels
The symbol shown below helps you to
recognise the correct type of fuel to use
in your vehicle. Before proceeding with
refuelling, check the symbols inside the
fuel filler flap (where provided) and
compare them with the symbols shown
on the fuel pump (where provided).
B7: Diesel fuel containing up to 7%
(V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Esters – Eg. EN
590 compliant diesel.
The diesel engine are compatible with
B7 type diesel (containing 7% fatty acid
methyl esters) conforming to European
standards EN590.
42)
IMPORTANT
38)Diesel-powered vehicles to comply with
the Euro 4 and Euro 5 regulation are
designed to use only diesel fuel that meets
the EN 590 standard. Use of any other type
of diesel fuel would adversely affect the
engine’s performance and durability.
39)Your vehicle is designed to use only
diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio
diesel, methylester, etc.) would adversely
affect the engine’s performance and
durability.
40)For diesel engines, only use diesel fuel
for motor vehicles in accordance with EN
590 European specifications. The use of
other products or mixtures may damage
the engine beyond repair and consequently
invalidate the warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally introduce other
types of fuel into the tank, do not start the
engine. Empty the tank. If the engine has
been run for even an extremely limited
amount of time, you must not only drain the
fuel tank, but the rest of the supply circuit
as well.
41)If proper “winter” fuel is not used in
winter, the diesel preheat indicator lamp
may blink and the engine speed may not
rise above the idling speed because of fuel
freezing. In this case, keep the engine idling
for approximately 10 minutes, then turn off
the ignition switch or put the operation
mode in OFF and immediately turn it on or
put in ON again to confirm that the diesel
preheat indicator lamp is off. Refer to
“Diesel preheat indicator lamp”.42)Do not use more than 7%
concentration of fatty acid methyl esters
(bio diesel) by volume. Use of more than
7% concentration would adversely affect
the engine’s performance and durability.

2. The fuel tank filler is located on the
rear left side of your vehicle.
Type 1,2
1. Open the fuel tank filler door with the
release lever located below the
instrument panel.
2. Open the fuel tank filler tube by
slowly turning the cap anticlockwise.A — Remove

Type 3
1. Open the cover (1). Insert the key in
the cap (2) and unlock it.
2. Turn the cap and remove it.
109)
3. Insert the gun in the tank port as far
as it goes.
4. When the gun stops automatically,
do not fill with fuel any more.5. To close, turn the fuel cap slowly
clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds, then gently push the fuel tank
filler door closed.
WARNING
98)When handling fuel, comply with the
safety regulations displayed by garages
and filling stations.
99)Fuel is highly flammable and explosive.
You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling it. When refueling your
vehicle, always turn the engine off and
keep away from flames, sparks and
smoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well ventilated outdoor areas.
100)Before removing the fuel cap, be sure
to get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the vehicle or fuel
pump. Any static electricity on your body
could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor.
101)Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing
the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not let
any other person come near the fuel tank
filler. If you allowed a person to help you
and that person was carrying static
electricity, fuel vapor could be ignited.
102)Do not move away from the fuel tank
filler until refueling is finished. If you moved
away and did something else (for example,
sitting on a seat) part-way through the
refueling process, you could pick up a
fresh charge of static electricity.
103)Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor.
Fuel contains toxic substances.104)Keep the doors and windows closed
while refueling the vehicle. If they were
open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.
105)If the fuel cap must be replaced, use
only a Fiat genuine part.
106)Since the fuel system may be under
pressure, remove the fuel cap slowly. This
relieves any pressure or vacuum that might
have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear a
hissing sound, wait until it stops before
removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, injuring you or others.
107)Do not apply any object/plug to the
end of the filler which is not provided for
the car. The use of non-compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure
increase inside the tank, resulting in
dangerous situations.
108)Do not use a mobile phone near the
refuelling pump: risk of fire.
109)Do not tilt the gun.
