DRAINING THE CONDENSE
The presence of water in the fuel circuit may cause serious damage to the entire
injection system and cause irregular engine operation. If warning light
or
comes on the dial (on certain versions
a message is displayed on the reconfigurable multifunction display), contact Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible to have the system relieved. Should the above warning
indication come one immediately after topping up, water has probably been poured
into the tank: turn the engine off immediately and contact Fiat Dealership.
