FILLING THE TANK

To fill the tank completely, top up twice after the
first click of the fuel delivery gun. Further top-ups
could cause faults in the fuel supply system.

REFUELLING PROCEDURE FOR VERSIONS
EQUIPPED WITH "SMART FUEL" SYSTEM

"Smart Fuel" is a device integrated with the end of
the fuel filler pipe which opens and recloses
automatically when the fuel delivery gun is
introduced/removed. "Smart Fuel" is provided with
an inhibiter which prevents refuelling with incorrect
fuel.
The refuelling procedure described below is
illustrated on label B fig. 73, which is applied inside
the fuel flap. The label also indicates the fuel type
(UNLEADED FUEL=petrol, DIESEL=diesel fuel).
To refuel proceed as follows:
❒ open the flap A fig. 73 pulling it outwards;
❒ introduce the dispenser in the filler and refuel;
❒ at the end of refuelling, before removing the

dispenser, wait for at least 10 seconds in order for
the fuel to flow inside the tank;

❒ then remove the dispenser from the filler and

close flap A.

Flap A fig. 73 is provided with a dust cowl C which
prevents deposits of impurities and dust at the
end of the filler when the flap is closed.
