IMPORTANT If gas is smelt, switch from
LPG operation to petrol operation and
immediately go to the Fiat Dealership to
have the vehicle checked and possible
system faults excluded.
LPG TANK
The car has a pressurised tank for
storing LPG in a liquid state. It is
toroidal and is located in the spare
wheel compartment with suitable
protection.
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 provisions in force in that
country. In all case, when the time limit
for your country has expired, go to a
Fiat Dealer to have the tank replaced.
LPG/PETROL SWITCH
This engine normally runs on LPG
except during starting when it runs on
petrol. Switching to LPG is automatic,
the warning light
1 fig. 67 on the
instrument panel, switches off.
If you specifically want to use petrol,
press the button on the dashboard
fig. 68. If the LED located above the
button turns on, it indicates that
switching has taken place correctly.
Regardless of the last fuel system used,
at the following engine starting, after the
initial petrol stage, the system will
automatically switch to LPG.
