LPG tank certification
The LPG tank is certified in accordance
with the regulations in force.
In Italy, the tank has a life of 10 years
starting from the car registration date. If
the vehicle has been registered in a
country other than Italy, the duration
and the testing/inspection procedures
of the LPG tank can vary depending on
the national laws of that country. In all
case, when the time limit for your
country has expired, go to a Fiat Dealer
to have the tank replaced.
SELECTION OF
PETROL/LPG SUPPLY
TYPE
32) 16) 17) 18)
The button A fig. 40 (petrol/LPG switch)
allows you to select running on petrol
or LPG.
To guarantee switching in full safety, the
actual change to the chosen fuel
system takes place depending on the
car usage conditions; it may not
therefore be immediate.
Switching is confirmed by the green
warning light
on the instrument panel
turning on/off.
If the LPG runs out, switching to petrol
takes place automatically. In this case
the display shows the
icon just
above the wording LPG and the four
bars of the digital gauge turn off.
REFUELLING
19) 20)
LPG
Maximum refuelling capacity (including
reserve): 30.5 litres. The figure already
takes into account the 80% tank filling
limit and the residual fluid required
for priming; this figure represents the
maximum permitted capacity. In
addition, this figure may vary from one
refuelling to another due to differences
between the network pump supply
pressures, pumps having different
supply/locking features, tank not
completely run out of fuel.
WARNING
30) Note that in some countries (including
Italy) there are legal restrictions in force
for parking/garaging motor vehicles fuelled
by gas that is denser than air; LPG comes
under this category.
31) Modifications or repairs to the supply
system that are not carried out correctly or
do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
32) Do not switch between the two
operating modes whilst starting the engine.
WARNING
11) The system operates at temperatures
ranging between -20°C and 100°C.
12) If the fuel runs out while running on
LPG, the car switches to petrol
automatically and all the bars of the digital
indicator on the display turn off. The
display remains in this state until the next
LPG refuelling.
