It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms with the information
given on the label inside fuel filler
flap A.

during filling. The shut-off system
and its surrounding area must be

Filling with fuel
Petrol versions
Use unleaded petrol only.
Using leaded petrol will damage the
anti-pollution devices and may lead
to a loss of warranty.
To ensure the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank
filler neck contains a restrictor
fitted with a valve which only
allows the nozzle for unleaded
petrol to be used (at the pump).
- When inserting the nozzle, push
back the metal valve and continue
to insert it as far as it will go.
- Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout
operation.

Petrol and diesel versions
No more than two filling operations
may be made after the fuel feed has
switched off automatically for the
first time because there must be
sufficient space in the fuel tank to
allow for expansion.
