FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
GASOLINE ENGINE
1.4L Turbo Gasoline Engine
This engine is designed to meet all emission
regulations and provide satisfactory fuel
economy and performance when using
high-quality unleaded gasoline having a
minimum research octane rating (RON) of
95. For optimum performance and fuel
economy the use of minimum research
octane rating (RON) of 98 or higher is recom-
mended. Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not
harmful to your engine. However, continued
heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause
damage, and immediate service is required.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita
-
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.

tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.
Ethanol
The manufacturer recommends that your
vehicle be operated on fuel containing no
more than 10% ethanol. Purchasing your
fuel from a reputable supplier may reduce
the risk of exceeding this 10% limit and/or of
receiving fuel with abnormal properties.
Materials Added To Fuel
Indiscriminate use of fuel system cleaning
agents should be avoided. Many of these
materials intended for gum and varnish
removal may contain active solvents or
similar ingredients. These can harm fuel
system gasket and diaphragm materials.
Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends
Some fuel suppliers blend unleaded gasoline
with oxygenates such as ethanol.
CAUTION!
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than
the GVWR or the maximum front and rear
GAWR. If you do, parts on your vehicle can
break, or it can change the way your
vehicle handles. This could cause you to
lose control. Also overloading can shorten
the life of your vehicle. Never exceed the
maximum combined vehicle load value:
the maximum towable load is only allowed
if it does not exceed the maximum
combined vehicle load.
CAUTION!
Use of fuel with Ethanol content higher
than 10% may result in engine
malfunction, starting and operating
difficulties, and materials degradation.
These adverse effects could result in
permanent damage to your vehicle.
CAUTION!
DO NOT use E-85, gasoline containing
methanol, or gasoline containing more
than 15% ethanol (E-15). Use of these
blends may result in starting and
drivability problems, damage critical fuel
system components, cause emissions to
exceed the applicable standard, and/or
cause the Malfunction Indicator Light to
illuminate. Please observe pump labels as
they should clearly communicate if a fuel
contains greater than 15% ethanol (E-15).

Fuel System CautionsNOTE:
Intentional tampering with the emissions
control system can result in civil penalties
being assessed against you.
Carbon Monoxide Warnings
FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
DIESEL ENGINE
Diesel Engine
Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable
supplier. If the outside temperature is very
low, the diesel fuel 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 fuel are distributed according to the
season: summer type, winter type and arctic
type (cold/mountain areas). If fueling with
diesel fuel whose features are not suitable
for the temperature of use, it is advisable to
mix in a suitable additive with the fuel. With
the proportions shown on the container, pour
the additive in the tank before fueling.
When using or parking the vehicle for a long
time in the mountains or cold areas, it is
advisable to refuel using locally available
fuel. In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over half full.
CAUTION!
Follow these guidelines to maintain your
vehicle’s performance:
The use of leaded gasoline is prohibited
by law. Using leaded gasoline can impair
engine performance and damage the
emissions control system.
An out-of-tune engine or certain fuel or
ignition malfunctions can cause the
catalytic converter to overheat. If you
notice a pungent burning odor or some
light smoke, your engine may be out of
tune or malfunctioning and may require
immediate service. Contact an autho-
rized dealer for service assistance.
The use of fuel additives, which are now
being sold as octane enhancers, is not
recommended. Most of these products
contain high concentrations of meth-
anol. Fuel system damage or vehicle
performance problems resulting from the
use of such fuels or additives is not the
responsibility of the manufacturer and
may void or not be covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is
deadly. Follow the precautions below to
prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:
Do not inhale exhaust gases. They
contain carbon monoxide, a colorless
and odorless gas, which can kill. Never
run the engine in a closed area, such as
a garage, and never sit in a parked
vehicle with the engine running for an
extended period. If the vehicle is
stopped in an open area with the engine
running for more than a short period,
adjust the ventilation system to force
fresh, outside air into the vehicle.
Guard against carbon monoxide with
proper maintenance. Have the exhaust
system inspected every time the vehicle
is raised. Have any abnormal conditions
repaired promptly. Until repaired, drive
with all side windows fully open.

Engine Oil – 1.6L / 2.0L Diesel Engine With AdBlue® (UREA) For best performance and maximum protection under all types ofoperating conditions, the manufacturer recommends SAE 0W-20
that meet the requirements of FCA Material Standard 9.55535-DSX
and ACEA C2.
NOTE:
If lubricants compliant with the required specifications are not
available, products that comply with the minimum required char-
acteristics can be used for topping off; in this case optimal perfor -
mance of the engine is not guaranteed.
The use of products with specifications other than those indicated
above could cause damage to the engine not covered by the
warranty.
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use a Mopar Engine Oil Filter.
Spark Plugs – Gasoline Engines We recommend you use Mopar Spark Plugs.
Fuel Selection – 1.4L Gasoline Engine Minimum of 95 Research Octane Number (RON) specification
EN228
Fuel Selection – Diesel Engines Diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590
Additive For Diesel Emissions AdBlue® (UREA) AdBlue® (Urea-Water Solution) According To DIN 70 070 and ISO
