GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
IMPORTANT The hermetic clo-
sure may cause a slight pressure in the
tank: a slight hissing when turning the
cap is quite normal.
To close:
1) the cap coupling is “bayonet”
type. Insert the cap (with the key) and
turn it clockwise until it clicks;
2) keeping the cap still, turn the key
clockwise and remove it; close the
flap.

Never pour even the
tiniest amount of leaded
petrol in the tank, not
even in an emergency; this would
damage the catalytic exhaust be-
yond repair.
FUEL TANK CAP
The fuel filler cap is fitted with a lock.
To open:
1) press on the point indicated and
open the flap fig. 90;
2) holding the cap still, turn the key
anticlockwise fig. 91;
3) turn the cap anticlockwise by
about one fourth of a turn and re-
move it.
The cap is provided with a strap A-
fig. 92 fastening it to the flap so that
is cannot be lost.

An inefficient catalytic
exhaust causes harmful
emissions with conse-
quent environmental pollution.
REFUELLING
To guarantee full tank filling, carry
out two refuelling operations after the
first click of the fuel delivery gun.
Avoid further topping up operations
that could cause damages to the fuel
system.
