tire type FIAT STRADA 2011 Owner handbook (in English)

If the outside temperature is very
low, diesel thickens due to the
formation of paraffin clots with
consequent defective operation of
the fuel supply system.
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 fuel whose
specifications are not suitable for the
current temperature, it is advisable
to mix TUTELA DIESEL ART
additive in the proportions shown
on the container with the fuel. Pour
the additive into the tank before the
diesel fuel.
When using or parking the vehicle
for a long time in the mountains or
cold areas, it is advisable to refuel
using locally available diesel fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to
keep the tank over 50% full.REFUELLING CAPACITY
To fill the tank completely, top up
twice after the first click of the fuel
delivery gun. Further top-ups could
cause faults in the fuel supply system.
FUEL TANK CAP
The sealing may cause a slight
pressure increase in the tank.
A suction noise when you release
the cap is therefore entirely normal.
The cap features a strap A-fig. 104
which secures it to the flap so that it
cannot be mislaid.

Do not bring naked
flames or lit cigarettes
near to the fuel tank opening:
fire risk. Also, keep your face
away from the filler to avoid
inhaling harmful fumes.
WARNING
IMPORTANT If necessary, only
replace the fuel cap with another
original part, or the operation of the
petrol vapour recovery system may
be compromised.
