SPEcIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL vERSIONS
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
If the
ú warning light comes on,
accompanied by the message “Check
antipollution”, consult an approved
dealer as soon as possible.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid faults in icy weather:
– Ensure that the battery is always well
charged.
– Always keep the diesel tank rela -
tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing in it and accumulating at the
bottom of the tank.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub -
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
Running out of fuel
After filling the tank if you have run
completely out of fuel , the engine
may be started normally on condition
that the battery is fully charged: see the
information on the “Fuel tank” in Section
1 to find out more about the special fea-
tures of diesel versions fitted with com-
monrail (high-pressure) injection.
However, if the engine fails to start after
a few seconds and several attempts,
contact an approved dealer.
