KNOWING YOUR CAR
Introduction
The LPG version of the car features two
fuel systems: one for petrol and one for
LPG.
Like the petrol system, the LPG system
is the phased, sequential multipoint type
with special injectors.
FIAT PUNTO LPG
What is LPG?
LPG (the abbreviation of liquefied petroleum gas) is a mixture of gas used as an
economical and safe primary energy
source.
Its main components are: propane gas and
butane gas mixed.
These gases are a product of petroleum
refinement and are also present naturally
in oil fields and methane-producing deposits.
In its natural state this mixture is in a
gaseous state but, as the pressure increases, at ambient temperature, it can
easily be turned into a liquid state.
LPG is a fuel with a low environmental impact because it reduces the pollution produced by vehicle exhaust gases.
LPG Multipoint injection system
This product is produced in strict collaboration with prestigious suppliers in the
LPG sector.
The injection system used on the car is an
efficient system in terms of engine performance and is based on the injection of
LPG in a gaseous state.
In this system with four injectors, one for
each intake manifold, the fuel is injected
directly into the engine heat transfer ducts
thereby metering the LPG very precisely
improving combustion and, at the same
time, excluding any possibility of flame return.
By adapting the electronic control technology of petrol engines to meet the specifications of LPG, it has been possible to
achieve important results in terms of driveability and controlling exhaust emissions.
Engines running on LPG have almost the
same torque/power specifications as when
running on petrol and, as a result, the performance of the car is also comparable.

Page 5
The system extreme operating temperatures are between
-20°C and 100°C.
Selecting the type of fuel supply
The car is configured for running independently on either petrol or LPG.
The engine is always started on petrol
with an automatic shift to LPG after about
40 seconds at the first significant acceleration.
This is the time required to reach optimum conditions (engine coolant temperature, minimum revs level) for the switch
to LPG. As far as what has been said
is concerned, there must always be
some petrol in the tank (at least 1/4
full) in order not to compromise the op-
eration of the fuel pump.
fig. 1
F0M0472m
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.
The petrol/LPG switch A-fig. 1, located
on the protective fuse flap (left side of the
dashboard) allows the driver to select
petrol or LPG operation at their discretion.
When running on LPG, when
the last red LED on gas quantity indicator (visible on the
switch) comes on, refuelling is
advisable. If the LPG runs out during
LPG operation, the system automatically switches to running on petrol
shown by: the amber LED coming on
constantly and the green LED flashing,
the fuel level LEDs going out and a
buzzer in the switch.

PASSIVE SAFETY ACTIVE SAFETY
Passive safety
The car has the same passive safety specifications as other versions. In particular,
the tank mountings (located in the spare
wheel housing) have been designed to exceed the Fiat safety standards for impact
tests.
When running on LPG, the flow of gas (in
a liquid state) leaving the tank, passes
through the dedicated pipe to the pressure regulator where there is a safety solenoid valve that stops the flow of LPG
when the key is turned off or when a
change of fuel is selected by the driver (decision to run on petrol).
FIAT PUNTO LPG
Together with the regulator solenoid
valve, a second solenoid valve, in the tank,
closes the LPG pipe at the tank outlet.
The two solenoid valves are closed in the
case of an impact after which the engine
cuts out caused by the fuel cut off system.
The LPG tank meets the legal safety standards of the countries in which the version illustrated this Supplement is marketed.
WARNING
It should be pointed out that
in some countries (including
Italy) there are legal restrictions in
force for parking/garaging motor vehicles with gas that has a higher density than air; LPG comes under this
category.
Active safety
The car has the same active safety specifications as other versions.
The Fiat Punto LPG is equipped
with gaseous LPG injection
system designed specifically
for the car: it is therefore
strictly prohibited to alter the configuration of the system and components.
The use of other components or materials could cause malfunctions and
lead to a reduction in safety therefore,
in the case of problems, go to a Fiat
Dealer. When towing or raising the
car, to prevent damage to the gas system parts, follow the instructions in the
Owner Handbook in the “Towing the
car” chapter.
When painting in an oven, the
LPG tank should be removed
from the car and later care-
fully refitted by a Fiat Dealer.
Although the LPG system has numerous safety features, it is advisable to
close the manual tap on the tank every
time the car 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.

LPG TANK
48
The vehicle has a (pressurized) tank Afig. 3 for LPG in a liquid state that is
toroidal in shape and located in the housing for the spare wheel with suitable protection.
The LPG in the tank A is always in a liquid
and gaseous state, in physical equilibrium
conditions.
The liquid, which cannot be compressed,
dilates by around 0.25% for each increase
in temperature of one degree. For this
reason a suitable space allowing the increase in volume of the liquid for all
forseeable temperature increases is guaranteed (e.g. car parked in the full sun in
summer) without compromising the integrity of the tank.
FIAT PUNTO LPG
In effect, there is a safety valve that automatically limits the refilling of the tank
(during refuelling) to a maximum level of
80% (liquid) of its total capacity.
Periodically (at least once
every six months) it is advisable
to let the LPG in the tank run
out and, at the first refuelling,
check that it does not exceed the maximum capacity of 38 litres (see instructions in “Capacities” paragraph in this
Supplement). If the value is above 38
litres, go to a Fiat Dealer immediately.
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
from the registration date of the car.
If the car has been registered in a different country from Italy, the life of
the LPG tank and test/inspection
procedures may vary depending on
the laws in force in that particular
country. In any case, when the time
limit in the individual country has run
out, go to a Fiat Dealer to have the
tank replaced.
fig. 3
F0M0474m
There is a plate on the tank B-fig. 3 containing the following information:
– homologation country identification and
homologation number;
– type of gas designed for (LPG);
– name of tank manufacturer;
– tank test pressure (30 bar);
– maximum refilling percentage (80%);
– tank dimensions;
– nominal tank capacity in litres;
– tank manufacture date (month/year);
– tank serial number.

SOLENOID VALVES
AND SAFETY DEVICES
The system has a solenoid valve located
on the pressure reduction unit and a solenoid valve fitted inside the multivalve assembly on the tank.
The main function of these solenoid valves
is to interrupt/allow the flow of LPG to
the supply circuit.
The solenoid valves are open when:
– a request to run on LPG has been made;
– the optimum engine conditions are satisfied (engine coolant temperature, minimum revs level) for running on LPG;
– there is enough LGP in the tank for operation;
The multivalve assembly fitted on the tank
includes:
– a valve that automatically stops the supply of LPG when the maximum permitted
filling level is reached (80% of the total
tank capacity);
– a flow limiter which, if a pipe is broken,
prevents the complete and sudden escape
of LPG;
– a one-way valve, located on the gas return pipe in the tank, which prevents LPG
reflux;
– a safety solenoid valve on the LPG supply, which either gives the go ahead or
prevents the escape of gas to the pressure
reduction unit;
– a manual tap, upstream of the solenoid
valve, that separates the tank from the LPG
system to allow maintenance operations;
– a fuse pad which, in the case of overheating (temperature above 120°C), totally eliminates the danger of excess pressure making the LPG in the tank flow out
as quickly as possible in a controlled manner;
– an analogue gauge showing the level of
LPG in the tank.

PIPING
REGULATION UNIT
The piping for the LPG in a liquid state
(from the filler to the tank and from the
tank to the pressure regulator) is made
from copper and coated in plastic.
The piping for the LPG in a gaseous state
(from the pressure regulator to the LPG
injectors) is made from rubber.
FIAT PUNTO LPG
The regulation unit fig. 4 includes:
– cut out solenoid valve with gauze filter;
– pressure regulator.
The cut out solenoid valve opens or
closes together with the solenoid valve on
the tank. It closes each flow of LPG when
the engine is not running on gas.
It also acts as a safety device that prevents
the flow of LPG if the inertia switch is activated.
fig. 4
The pressure regulator allows the
change of the LPG from a liquid state to a
gaseous state via a dilation chamber and
maintains the pressure required for the operation of the system at a preset value.

PAPER FILTER
LPG INJECTORS
The filter fig. 5, located on the pressure
regulator outlet pipe, has the task of filtering the LPG in a gaseous state during
the LPG injectors supply stage.
fig. 5
fig. 6
F0M0476m
F0M0477m
There are four injectors fig. 6, specially
designed for LPG, mounted on the intake
manifold near the cylinder head, one for
each inlet duct; they are supplied with LPG
in a gaseous state at a constant pressure
and are controlled by a specific electronic control unit.
A gas pressure and temperature sensor
that sends an appropriate electrical signal
in order to determine the LPG injection
time is fitted on the injectors.
FIAT PUNTO LPG
11
Page 12
ELECTRONIC CONTROL
UNIT
The vehicle has a dedicted electronic control unit for the LPG system; it uses the
incoming signals from the petrol injection
control unit and converts them into signals for the injection of the LPG.
The control unit for the injectors has the
same strategy as the petrol control unit
(phased, sequential, multipoint).
FIAT PUNTO LPG
LPG/PETROL SWITCH
The LPG/petrol switch fig. 7 is located on
the protective fuse flap (left side of the
dashboard) and includes:
A. LPG/petrol operating mode request
button;
B. LPG gauge: 5 LEDs, 4 green and 1 red
to indicate the reserve. The red LED only comes on when the last green LED goes
out.
The red LED indicates the reserve condition;
ON. LPG operating mode indicator:
green LED, located under button A, on
constantly;
OFF. petrol operating mode indicator:
yellow LED, located above button A, on
constantly.
IMPORTANT When the ignition key is
turned to the MAR position the LEDs on
the ignition switch come on in accordance
with the following logic:
– with the petrol operating mode se-
lected: yellow OFF LED on;
– with the LPG operating mode se-
lected: all the LEDs in the switch are on
constantly and the green ON LED is flashing.
fig. 7
To select the type of fuel system desired
(LPG or petrol), press the button A-fig.
7.
To change the type of fuel system, it is advisable to operate the button with the vehicle stationary and the engine running or
,whilst driving, after having released the
accelerator.
If the switching takes place during acceleration or pick-up, there may be a brief
flat spot (fall in power).
Do not switch between the
two operating modes whilst
starting the engine.
F0M0478m

Page 13
Switching from petrol to LPG
When running on petrol: press the button
A-fig 7, the switch to LPG will take place
automatically at the first significant acceleration.
During switching:
– the LPG gauge B comes on;
– the yellow OFF LED goes out (petrol
operating mode);
– the green ON LED comes on switching from intermittent to on constantly
(LPG operating mode);
There is a series of 5 LEDs B (1 red and
4 green) on the left side of the switch that
display the amount of LPG in the tank.
When the amount of LPG remaining goes
below about 1/5 of the capacity of the
tank, only the red (reserve) LED remains
on to signal the need for refuelling.
IMPORTANT In the case of starting at
outside temperatures of below -10°C, the
switching times from petrol to LPG increase to allow the pressure regulator to
become warm enough.
Switching from LPG to petrol
When running on LPG: press the button
A-fig. 7.
During switching:
– the LPG gauge B goes out;
– the yellow OFF LED comes on constantly (petrol operating mode);
– the green ON LED goes out (LPG operating mode).
LPG used up
If the LPG runs out, switching to petrol
takes place automatically with:
– the yellow OFF LED on constantly;
– the green ON LED flashing;
– an acoustic warning from the switch
buzzer (fast frequency).
IMPORTANT The buzzer warns the driver that the engine is running on petrol;
therefore they must refuel with LPG before it runs out.
It is possible to deactivate the buzzer by
pressing switching button A.
Do not switch between the
two operating modes whilst
starting the engine.

System failure signalling
The car has an autodiagnostic system capable of signalling any malfunctions in the
LPG fuel system through the green ON
LED fig. 7 flashing. In the case of faults
that could affect the correct operation of
the engine, the LPG control unit will automatically switch from LPG operation to
running on petrol.
This condition will be shown by:
– the yellow OFF LED on constantly;
– the green ON LED flashing;
– an acoustic warning from the switch
buzzer (slow frequency).
FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
In the case of an impact to the vehicle, the
petrol supply is immediately cut off causing the engine to cut out and, as a result,
the LPG safety solenoid valves to close.
For further information, see the “Fuel cut
off system” paragraph in the “Dashboard
and Controls” chapter in the Owner
Handbook.
STARTING
THE ENGINE
The engine is always started on petrol
even with the switch in the LPG position
(green LED flashing, yellow LED on constantly) and switches automatically soon
after.
There must always be some petrol in the
tank to protect the petrol pump.
To carry out the starting manoeuvre correctly, see the warnings and advice in the
Owner Handbook under the chapter
“Starting the engine” enclosed with this
Supplement.

buzzer, press button A: the green ON
LED will go out and the yellow OFF
LED will remain on constantly. Go to a
Fiat Dealer as soon as possible to have
the system checked.

STATION
LPG filler
The gas filler is located next to the petrol
filler cap. It has a one-way valve, located
in the actual filler body.
To access the filler B-fig. 8, open the access flap A and undo the cap C.
Observe the following precautions during
the refuelling operation:
– switch off the engine;
– apply the handbrake;
– turn the ignition key to the STOP position;
– do not smoke;
– hand the special adaptor over to the
qualified LPG refuelling personnel.
IMPORTANT Before refuelling with LPG,
the qualified personnel should make sure
that the adapator is correctly tightened
onto the filler fitting.
IMPORTANT Depending on the country,
there are two types of adaptors for refuelling pumps. The adaptor that comes with
the car in a special case is specifically designed for the country in which the car is
sold. If you are in a different country, find
out what type of adapator is used there.

Note than when using a fuel such as LPG,
the range is very variable because, in addition to the vehicle driving and maintenance conditions, it also depends on the
composition of the gas which may vary,
not only seasonally, but also from supplier to supplier. LPG is, in effect, a composition of gas (butane and propane) mixed
in a way that may not be standardized.
During LPG operation, the “Instant consumption” and “Average consumption”
readings are not significant, but remain
valid for all other functions.
IMPORTANT Only use LPG for motor vehicles.
If, when refuelling with LPG,
the tank is filled with more
than the 38 litres, seek assis-
tance immediately from a Fiat Dealer. Periodically (at least once
every six months) it is advisable to let
the LPG in the tank run out and, at the
first refuelling, check that it does not
exceed the maximum capacity of 38
litres.
