Vehicle features
Refuelling (continued):
The fuel filler cap can be retained in the bracket on the fuel filler flap.
To refuel, fully insert the pump nozzle and switch it on. After the automatic cut-off, the tank can be topped
up with maximum two doses of fuel. Wipe off any overflowing fuel immediately.
To close, turn the fuel filler cap to the right until it clicks. Close the flap and ensure it engages.
Petrol engines - use unleaded fuel meeting specifications of EN 228 or E DIN 51626-1 or equivalent.
Diesel engines - use diesel fuel meeting specifications of EN 590.
Fuel tank capacity - 56 litres.
Engine oil:
Check engine oil level manually on a regular basis to prevent damage to engine.
Ensure that the correct specification of oil is used.
Check with vehicle on a level surface. Engine must be at operating temperature and switched off for at least
5 minutes. Pull out dipstick, wipe clean, insert to stop on the handle, pull out and read engine oil level.
Insert dipstick to stop on handle and make half a turn.
Important:
It is the owner's responsibility to maintain the correct level of an appropriate quality oil in the engine.
Do not allow the engine oil level to drop below the minimum level!
Tyre pressure:
Check tyre pressures, including the spare, every 14 days and prior to any long journey; tyres should be
checked when cold. This also applies to vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Always inflate the spare tyre to the value specified for full load.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to achieve the smallest amount of fuel consumption possible.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel economy and increase tyre wear.
Warning:
If the pressure is too low, this can result in considerable tyre warm-up and internal damage, leading to tread
separation and even to tyre blow-out at high speeds.
