REFUELLING
Only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating
(RON) not less than 95 conforming to the European
specification EN 228.
The use of petrol that does not conform to the
above-mentioned specification will cause the EOBD
warning light to come on and the irregular operation
of the engine.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the
gearshift lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch
without pressing the accelerator, then turn the ignition
key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine has
started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures
during operation. Do not park the car on grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or other flammable material: fire
hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The car is fitted with a system that allows continuous
diagnosis of the components linked to emissions to
ensure better respect for the environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the car, you decide to add electrical
accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the
battery), contact an Abarth Dealership. They can
calculate the overall electrical requirement and check
that the vehicle electric system can support the
required load.
CODE card
(for versions/markets where provided)
Keep the card in a safe place, not in the car.
Make sure you have the electronic code written on
the CODE card with you at all times.
