LPG tank certification

The LPG tank is certified in accordance

with the regulations in force. In Italy,

the tank has a life of 10 years starting

from the car registration date. If the

vehicle has been registered in a country

other than Italy, the duration and the

testing/inspection procedures of the

LPG tank can vary depending on the

national laws of that country. In all

case, when the time limit for your

country has expired, go to a Fiat

Dealership to have the tank replaced.
The tank identification data are printed

on the tank, under the multivalve unit:

type-approval country identification

and type-approval number;

type of gas it is designed for (LPG);

name of tank manufacturer;

tank commissioning pressure (30

bar);

maximum refilling percentage (80%);

tank dimensions;

rated tank capacity in litres;

tank manufacture date (month/year);

tank serial number.

SELECTION OF

PETROL/LPG SUPPLY

TYPE

This engine normally runs on LPG

except during starting, when it runs on

petrol.
Switching to LPG is automatic, the

green warning light

fig. 59, on the

instrument panel, switches off.

59

F1D0761

If you want to run on petrol, press

button (A) fig. 60; this operation is

allowed both with car at a standstill and

45

engine running and also while driving.

The the LED above the button and the

green warning light

fig. 59 on the

instrument panel turn on to indicate

that the switching request has taken

place correctly.

WARNING Regardless of the last fuel

system used, at the following engine

starting, after the initial petrol stage,

the system will automatically switch to

LPG.

60

F1D1042

The four bars on the display next to the

digital indicator (B) fig. 61 indicate the

level of LPG in the tank.

61

F1D0762

In addition, when starting at outside

temperatures below approximately -

10

°

C, the switching times from petrol

to LPG increase to allow the pressure

regulator/reduction unit to heat up.

40)

18) 19) 20)

LPG FUEL RESERVE

When the residual quantity of LPG

drops below 1/5 of the tank capacity:

the first bar of the digital indicator

stays on;

the yellow warning light

fig. 62

comes on;

the display will show a dedicated

message;

at the same time, there is also an

acoustic signal.
This condition will last until the next

LPG refuelling, also in the event of

petrol operation.

62

F1D0763

If the LPG runs out, switching to petrol

takes place automatically. In this case

the display shows the

icon just

above wording LPG and the four bars

of the digital gauge turn off, see fig. 63.

63

F1D0806

WARNING For a limited period of

time, e.g. after starting (and for a few

miles), the condition shown in fig. 64

may appear in the display: the

icon

switches off and the four bars of the

digital gauge stay off. This condition

should not be interpreted a system fault

46

but as a condition due to a temporary

LPG supply (drawn by the pump after

the stabilisation of the residual level in

the tank).

64

F1D0764

LPG SYSTEM FAILURE

SIGNALLING

In the event of LPG system failure:

all the bars of the digital indicator

switch off and the symbol

fig. 65 is

displayed;

the display will show a dedicated

message.

65

F1D0765

In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership

as soon as possible, running on petrol.

REFUELLING

21) 22)

LPG

Maximum refuelling capacity (including

reserve): 30.5 litres. The figure already

takes into account the 80% tank filling

limit and the residual fluid required for

priming and the maximum permitted

capacity. In addition, after different

refuelling processes, this figure may

vary due to differences between the

network pump supply pressures,

pumps having different supply/locking

features, tank not completely run out of

fuel.

38)

Note that in some countries (including

Italy) there are legal restrictions in force for

parking/ garaging motor vehicles fuelled

by gas that is denser than air; LPG comes

under this category.

39)

Modifications or repairs to the fuel

supply system that are not carried out

properly or do not take the system’s

technical specifications into account can

cause malfunctions leading to the risk of

fire.

40)

Do not switch between the two

operating modes whilst starting the

engine.

12)

The system operates at temperatures

ranging between -20

°

C and 100

°

C.

13)

If the fuel runs out while running

on LPG, the car switches to petrol

automatically and all the bars of the digital

indicator on the display turn off. The

display remains in this state until the next

LPG refuelling.

14)

The car is equipped with a gaseous

LPG injection system designed specifically

for it: it is therefore absolutely forbidden

to alter the configuration of the system

or its components. The use of other

components or materials could cause

malfunctions and lead to a reduction in

safety; therefore, in the case of problems,

contact a Fiat Dealership. To prevent

damage to the gas system parts when

towing or raising the car, follow the

instructions in the "Towing the car"

chapter of the Owner Handbook.

15)

When painting in an oven, the LPG

tank must be removed from the car and

later refitted by a Fiat Dealership. Although

the LPG system has numerous safety

features, it is advisable to proceed as

follows every time the car is not in use for

a long period or moved in an emergency

as a result of a breakdown or accident:

unscrew the fastening devices (A) fig. 54,

then remove the cover (B). Close the LPG

cock by rotating the ring nut (C) fig. 55

clockwise. Refit the cover and retighten the

fastening devices.

16)

If, during LPG operation, the fuel

runs out, the car switches to petrol

automatically and all the bars of the digital

47

indicator (B) fig. 57 the display switch off;

this displaying remains until the next LPG

refuelling.

17)

Periodically (at least once every

six months), it is advisable to let the

LPG in the tank run out and, at the next

refuelling, check that it does not exceed

the maximum capacity of 30.5 litres

(reserve included) (with a tolerance of 2

litres in excess) (see instructions in the

"Capacities" chapter). If the level is above

30.5 litres (reserve included) contact a Fiat

Dealership immediately.

18)

Regardless of the last fuel system

used, at the following engine starting,

after the initial petrol stage, the system will

automatically switch to LPG.

19)

When switching from petrol to LPG

is requested, a metal noise from the

valves which pressurise the circuit can be

heard. As a result of the switching logics

described above, the delay between the

ticking of the valve and the switching off of

the green warning light

fig. 59 on the

instrument panel is entirely normal.

20)

In particular usage conditions, such

as starting and operation at low ambient

temperature or LPG supply with low

propane content, the system may switch

temporarily to petrol operation, without

indicating the performed switching. In

the event of low LPG levels in the tank

or request for high performance (e.g.

overtaking, vehicle fully laden, steep hills),

the system may automatically switch to

petrol operation to guarantee the engine

power requested; the green warning

light

fig. 59 on the instrument panel

switches on to indicate this. When the

above conditions are no longer present,

the system automatically restores LPG

operation; the green warning light

fig. 59 switches off. To achieve the

automatic switching described above,

make sure that there is always enough fuel

in the petrol tank.

21)

Only use LPG for motor cars.

22)

It is strictly forbidden to use any

additive in the LPG.

VERSION WITH

METHANE SYSTEM

(Natural Power)

41) 42) 43)

23)

INTRODUCTION

The "Natural Power" version features

two fuel systems, one for petrol and

one for natural gas (methane).

WARNING If gas is smelled, switch

from methane operation to petrol

operation and immediately go to a Fiat

Dealership to have the vehicle checked

and possible system faults excluded.

SELECTION OF THE FUEL

SUPPLY TYPE

The car is configured for running

independently on either petrol or

methane.
The engine always starts up on petrol,

with automatic switching to methane

when the best conditions are achieved

(engine water temperature, minimum

engine rpm limit) for switching to

methane.
Therefore, there must always be some

petrol in the tank (at least 1/4 full), in

order not to compromise the operation

of the fuel pump.
In addition, it is advisable to periodically

use up the petrol in the tank (until the

reserve warning light comes on) in

order to ensure that the petrol does not

become old and possibly deteriorate.

METHANE CYLINDERS

The vehicle is equipped with two

cylinders (total capacity about 72 litres)

fig. 66 - fig. 67 located under the floor

of the vehicle and protected by two

special guards.

66

F1D0137

48

67

F1D0138

The methane, stored in the cylinders

at high pressure, flows through a

dedicated pipe to reach the pressure

regulator/reduction unit which supplies

the two methane injectors at low

pressure (about 9 bar).

Cylinder certification

The methane cylinders are certified in

accordance with ECE Regulation no.

110.
The cylinders must be inspected, in

accordance with ECE Regulation

Procedure no. 110, every 4 years

from the car registration date or in

accordance with specific regulations in

individual countries.
The plates provided by the Dealership

with the on board documentation

contain the date for the first inspection

of the cylinders. Methane refuelling

stations are not authorised to refill the

cylinders when the inspection date has

expired.

WARNING If the vehicle has been

registered in a country other than Italy,

the certification data, identification and

inspection procedures for the methane

cylinders should conform to the

legislation in that country. In any case,

remember that the life of the cylinders

is 20 years from the production date as

set out in ECE Regulation no. 110.

SELECTION OF

PETROL/METHANE

SUPPLY TYPE

This engine normally runs on methane

except during starting, when it runs on

petrol.
Switching to methane is automatic, the

green warning light

fig. 68, on the

instrument panel, switches off.

68

F0W0732

The (petrol/methane switch) button (A)

fig. 69 allows drivers to select petrol or

methane operation. This operation is

only allowed with the car stationary and

the engine running while travelling.
The switching on of the LED located

above the button and of the green

warning light

on the instrument

panel indicates that the switching

request has taken place correctly.

69

F1D1042

The four bars on the display next to the

digital indicator (B) fig. 70 indicate the

level of methane, in the tank.

70

F1D0773

49

To guarantee switching in full safety,

the actual change to the chosen fuel

system takes place depending on

the car usage conditions; it may not

therefore be immediate.
Switching is confirmed by the switching

on/off of the green warning light

fig. 68 in the instrument panel.
In addition, when starting at outside

temperatures below approximately

–

10

°

C, the switching times from petrol

to methane increase to allow the

pressure regulator/reduction unit to

heat up.

24) 25) 26) 27)

METHANE FUEL

RESERVE

If the methane has run out, switching to

petrol takes place automatically. In this

case, the four bars of the digital gauge

switch off and the green warning light

on the instrument panel switches on.

METHANE SYSTEM

FAILURE INDICATION

In the event of methane system failure:

all the bars of the digital indicator

switch off and the symbol

fig. 71 is

displayed;

the display will show a dedicated

message.
In this case, contact a Fiat Dealership

as soon as possible, running on petrol.

71

F1D0776

REFUELLING

Methane

Capacity: about 12 kg. The total

volume of cylinders is about 72 litres.
The amount of methane depends on

the outside temperature, the supply

pressure, the quality of the gas and the

type of refuelling system.
Remember that when using a fuel such

as methane the range is very variable

because it depends on the temperature

of the gas in the cylinder as well as

on the driving conditions and on car

maintenance.
The methane actually heats up during

the refuelling and cools down whilst

driving, undergoing variations in

pressure that reduce the quantity that

can be used. It should also be pointed

out that whilst the vehicle is being run

in (up to around 3000 km) the fuel

consumption may be higher than the

figures given.

The "Range", "Instant consumption"

and "Average consumption" readings

for the Trip Computer on the display

are not available, regardless of the

current supply.
All other indications for petrol and

methane supply are available: "Outside

Temp", “Travel Distance”, “Average

Speed” and “Travel time”.

WARNING In order to avoid

inconsistent information by the

methane gauge on the instrument

panel, it is recommended to refill with

at least 10 litres each time.

41)

The Fiat Panda Natural Power is

equipped with a high pressure methane

fuel supply system, designed to operate

at a rated pressure of 200 bar. It is

dangerous to stretch the system with

higher pressures. To prevent damage to

the gas system parts when towing or

lifting the vehicle, follow the instructions

in the Owner Handbook, in the chapter:

“Towing the vehicle”. If there is a fault in

the methane system, only contact a Fiat

Dealership. Do not alter the methane

system configuration or components.

They are designed exclusively for the Fiat

Panda Natural Power. The use of other

components or materials could cause

malfunctions and prejudice safety.

50

42)

When oven painting, the cylinders

must be removed from the vehicle and

later carefully refitted by a Fiat Dealership.

Although the methane system has

numerous safety features, it is advisable to

close the manual cocks for the cylinders

every time the vehicle is not in use for a

long period, transported on other vehicles

or moved in an emergency as a result of a

breakdown or accident.

43)

Modifications or repairs to the fuel

supply system that are not carried out

properly or do not take the system’s

technical specifications into account can

cause malfunctions leading to the risk of

fire.

23)

If the fuel runs out while running on

methane, the car switches to petrol

automatically and all the bars of the digital

indicator on the display turn off. The

display remains in this state until the next

methane refuelling.

24)

Do not switch between the two

operating modes whilst starting the

engine.

25)

Regardless of the last fuel system

used, at the following engine starting,

after the initial petrol stage, the system will

automatically switch to methane.

26)

When switching from petrol to

methane is requested, a metal noise from

the valves which pressurise the circuit can

be heard, as it happens while starting the

car. As a result of the switching logics

described above, the delay between the

ticking of the valve and the switching

off of the green warning light

on the

instrument panel is entirely normal.

27)

In particular usage conditions, such

as starting and operation at low ambient

temperature, the system may switch

temporarily to petrol operation, without

indicating the performed switching. In the

event of low methane levels in the tank

or request for high performance (e.g.

overtaking, vehicle fully laden, steep hills),

the system may automatically switch to

petrol operation to guarantee the engine

power requested; the green warning light

on the instrument panel switches on to

indicate this. When the above conditions

are no longer present, the system

automatically restores Methane operation;

the green warning light

switches off. To

achieve the automatic switching described

above, make sure that there is always

enough fuel in the petrol tank.
