NOTICE
If the needle goes into the red zone,
despite these measures, stop the car in a
suitable place and allow the engine to
idle. If the needle continues to rise, switch
off the engine.
If the needle repeatedly enters the red zone,
stop the car as soon as it is safe to do so and
check the coolant level, see page 182.
WARNING
Never remove the expansion tank filler
cap completely while the engine is warm.
Slacken the cap carefully. The cooling
system is pressurised - hot coolant and
vapour can escape when the filler cap is
released.

Fuel gauge

When less than about 10 litres of fuel is left
in the tank, an warning light on the main
instrument panel comes on.
Because of the fuel remaining in the tank,
the amount of fuel required to fill the tank
may be less than the specified tank
capacity.
Refuelling, see page 133.
