octane FIAT MULTIPLA 2006 1.G Owners Manual

PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
While working, the catalyst develops a very high temperature. Do not park the car over grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or any other inflammable materials: risk of fire.
MUST BE READ!
ENGINE START-UP
Petrol engines with mechanical gearbox:make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the
gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator, then turn the
ignition key to AVVand release it as soon as the engine has started.
Diesel engines:make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gearshift lever to neutral; fully
depress the clutch without pressing the accelerator; turn the ignition key to MARand wait for the
mwarning light to go off; turn the ignition key to AVVand release it as soon as the engine has
started.

REFUELLING
Petrol engines:only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95
conforming to the European specification EN228.
Diesel engines:only refuel with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590.
Using other products or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and cause the forfeiture of the
warranty cover for caused damages as a consequence.

PETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To prevent errors, the diameter of the fuel tank filler
is too small to introduce a lead petrol pump filler.
Use petrol with a rated octane number (R.O.N.) not
lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst leads to harmful
exhaust emissions, thus contributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small
amount or in an emergency, as this would damage the
catalyst beyond repair.
The car must only be filled with diesel fuel for motor vehicles, in compliance with European
Specification EN590. The use of other products or mixtures may irreparably damage the engine
with invalidation of the warranty due to the damage caused. In the event of accidentally filling with
another type of fuel, do not start the engine and empty the tank. If the engine has been run even
for only a very short time, in addition to the tank, it is also necessary to drain out the whole fuel
circuit.DIESEL ENGINES
If the outside temperature is very low, the diesel
thickens due to the formation of paraffin and could
clog the fuel filter.
In order to avoid these problems, different types of
diesel are distributed according to the season: summer
type, winter type and arctic type (cold mountain
areas).
If refuelling with diesel type not suitable for cold
temperatures, add TUTELA DIESEL ART additive in
the proportions stated on the can, pouring 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 stations.
In this situation you are also recommended to have in
the tank an amount of fuel 50% higher than usable
capacity.
