REAR SEATS(for markets/versions, where provided)
FOLDING OVER
To fold the rear seats over, in order to be
able to locate the tab A-Fig. 14, it is nec-
essary to open the cargo box as illustrat-
ed in Fig. 13. It is advisable to keep the
cover raised in this position as well when
repositioning the seat.
AT THE FILLING
STATION
METHANE GAS FILLER
The methane filler is located near the
petrol one Fig. 15.
It has a check valve, located in the actual
filler body.
To access the filler, undo the cap A-Fig. 15
turning it anticlockwise.
The profile of filler fitting B-Fig. 16is uni-
versal, compatible with Italian and NGV1
standards.
In some European countries adapters are
considered ILLEGAL (e.g. in Germany).
For service stations with m
3nozzles (pres-
sure differential) the check valves must be
released by delivering a small amount of
methane to measure the residual pressure
in the cylinder.
The other plates (handed over with the
vehicle documentation) contain the date
for the first inspection of the cylinders.

Fig. 14F0T0353m
Those responsible for meth -
ane refuelling are not autho-
rised to refill the cylinders
when the inspection date has expired.
The check valve prevents the methane
from flowing back to the filler.

IDENTIFICATION DATA
IMPORTANT If the vehicle has been
registered in a country other than
Italy, the certification and identifica-
tion data and the control/inspection
procedures for the methane cylin-
ders comply with the legislation in
that country. In any case, it should
be remembered that the life of the
cylinders is 20 years from the pro-
duction date as set out in ECE Reg-
ulation no. 110.
Marking the cylinders
Each methane cylinder is identified in the
factory with a stamp on the nose of the
cylinder.
This stamp contains:
CNG ONLY(type of gas which it is de-
signed for: compressed natural gas only);
DO NOT USE AFTER



-




(cylinder expiry date: month-year);
FABER(name of the cylinder manufac-
turer);

(cylinder regis-
tration number);

KG(weight of the cylinder in kg: spe-
cific for each cylinder);

15 °C);
30.0MPa(cylinder test pressure);

The other plates (handed over with the
vehicle documentation) contain the date
for the first inspection of the cylinders.
SYSTEM INSPECTION
The cylinders shall be inspected, in ac-
cordance with ECE Regulation Procedure
no. 110, every 4 years from the vehicle
registration date or in accordance with
specific regulations in individual countries.

CARGO BOX
The cargo box is located in the luggage
compartment and it includes different
sized compartments to store all kinds of
small items. To gain access to the Cargo
Box follow the illustrations in Fig. 18.
WHEEL REPAIR
The vehicle does not have a spare wheel
but rather a rapid tyre repair kit called Fix
&Go, located in the luggage compartment
on the left rear wheel arch A-Fig. 19(for
Combi/Qubo versions). On Cargo ver-
sions, the Fix&Go repair kit is located be-
hind the driver’s seat.

CHECKING LEVELS
Fig. 20
Never smoke while
working in the engine
compartment: flammable gases
and vapours may be present,
constituting a fire risk.
IMPORTANT
When topping up, take
care not to confuse the
various types of fluids:
they are not interchangeable and
could seriously damage the car.
1. Engine coolant
2. Battery
3. Windscreen washer fluid
4. Brake fluid
5. Engine oil
6. Power steering fluid
