Filling up with LPG

Useful capacity of LPG tank: approximately 8.80 gal (40 l) or 11.00 (50 l) (depending on the vehicle).

Apply the parking brake, stop the engine, switch off the ignition and switch off the lights.

Always observe the safety instructions given at filling stations.

Depending on the country, before refilling you must screw the filling adapter 1 on the LPG tank filler end piece.

It is always advisable to completely fill the tank.

When the pump stops delivering LPG, or when the pump flow reduces significantly, the maximum LPG level has been reached.

At this point, do not attempt to carry on filling.

Filling stations without self-service

If the service station personnel carry out the LPG filling procedure, you must hand them the filling adapter 1.

tip

IMPORTANT: LPG filling adapter 1

Depending on the country, the use of a specific adapter is required for LPG filling.

The filling adapter 1 is provided in a pouch in the glove box. It may or may not be present in the vehicle, depending in which country the vehicle was sold.

Before driving the vehicle to another country, it is essential to consult an approved dealer to find out the type of adapter to use if necessary.

Filling stations with self-service

We recommend that you wear gloves when handling the LPG pistol.

Open your vehicle's fuel tank flap and unscrew the cap 2 from the LPG filler end piece.

Carefully follow the information explaining how to refill using the LPG distributor.

Depending on the type of station, it may be necessary to perform a long press of the station button before filling will start.

When the pump stops or if it has difficulty operating, this means that the maximum tank fill level (80%) has been reached.

The filling will stop as soon as you release the button. Release the stop lever (a small amount of gas may be released), lift the pistol and place it on the distributor.

After filling, refit the cap 2 to prevent any water or foreign bodies from entering the system.

warning

To fill up with fuel, the engine must be stopped (and not only on standby in the case of vehicles equipped with the Stop and Start function): you must switch off the ignition Ignition-starter switch on a vehicle with key, Ignition-starter switch on a vehicle with card.
