Refuelling
9
Warning
Care must be taken when handling fuel.
Before refuelling, turn off engine and also
shut off external heaters with combustion
chambers (identified by stickers on fuel
filler cap). Switch off mobile phones.
The tank display updates more quickly if
the ignition is switched off during
refuelling.

Warning
Fuel is flammable and explosive. When
handling fuel or in the immediate vicinity,
avoid naked flames or sparks. Do not
smoke. This also applies where the
presence of fuel is revealed by its
characteristic smell. If fuel odours occur in
the car, have a workshop eliminate the
fault immediately.
Fuel filler neck at right rear side of vehicle.
The tank flap is locked together with the
doors – see page 30.
Open the tank flap.
Unscrew the fuel filler cap, remove and
suspend from the tank flap.
The fuel tank has a limiting system which
prevents overfilling of the tank.
Driving and operation
Correct filling depends to a large extent on
proper operation of the fuel dispensing
pump:
1. Fully insert the pump nozzle and switch it
on.
2. After an automatic shut-off the nominal
capacity of the fuel tank is reached by
means of two metered top-ups. Insert
fuel dispensing pump as far as it will go.
To close, position the fuel filler cap and
rotate past the resistance until the cap
audibly clicks over the retainer.
Close fuel tank cover.
Wipe off any overflowing fuel immediately.
