PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The devices for curtailing petrol engine
emissions are the following:
❒ three-way catalytic converter;
❒ Lambda sensor;
❒ fuel evaporation system.
In addition, do not let the engine run, even
for a test, with one or more spark plugs
disconnected.
The devices for curtailing diesel fuel en-
gine emissions are the following:
❒ oxidising catalytic converter;
❒ exhaust gas recirculation system
(E.G.R.);
❒ diesel particulate filter (DPF).
FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 98 and 99
The fuel filler cap B is fitted with an anti-
loss device C which fastens it to the flap
A so it cannot be mislaid.
To slacken the cap B first open the flap A.
The sealing of the tank may cause light
pressurising in the tank. A little breathing
off, while slackening the cap is absolutely
normal.
When refuelling, position the cap on the
device inside the flap as shown in the fig-
ure.
fig. 99 F0G0042m
Do not put naked flames or
lighted cigarettes near the fu-
el filler hole as there is a dan-
ger of fire. Do not bend too
close to the hole either so as not to
breathe in harmful vapours.
During normal service the
catalyst reaches high tem-
peratures. Do not therefore park the
car over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire
hazard.
