Capless filler neck
This vehicle has a capless filler neck for fuelling. This system allows
you to refuel by opening the fuel filler flap and simply placing the
nozzle in the filler neck without having to unscrew a cap and screw
it up again.
Two flaps placed in series, both with airtight seals, act as a cap.
The external flap is locked by a series of "teeth" and the only way
to open the external flap correctly is by inserting a petrol pump
nozzle.

Warning
Place the nozzle in the filler neck carefully to avoid damaging
the device seal.
Do not try to open the external flap of the filler neck by pushing
it with your fingers or lever it open using unsuitable tools (e.g.
screwdrivers). This may damage the external flap mechanism,
compromising the seal integrity and safety of the system.
Warning
Do not overfill the fuel tank: this may cause the fuel to leak out.
After fuelling, wait for about 5 seconds before slowly removing
the nozzle from the filler neck: in this way, the last drops of fuel
will flow into the tank and will not drip onto the vehicle.
Warning
Do not place funnels or portable container nozzles in the filler
neck.
If you need to refuel from a portable fuel container, use only the
funnel supplied in the tool bag (see page 202) that releases the
automatic closing device.
