FILLING WITH FUEL
Low fuel level
When this warning lamp fi rst comes
on and when the needle is at the start
of the red zone, the minimum fuel tank
level has been reached.
At this moment, you have approximately
8 litres of fuel remaining.
Fill up without delay to avoid running out of fuel.
Never continue to drive until you
run out of fuel as this may damage
the emission control and injection systems.
Filling with fuel
The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off .
When filling with fuel, do not open
the left-hand side door, if fitted on
your vehicle, as there is a risk of damage to
the fuel filler flap.
- Open the fuel filler flap.
Insert the key, then turn it a quarter turn.
- Remove the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the flap.
It is normal to hear the noise of an inrush
of air when the cap is opened as there is a
vacuum caused by the sealing of the fuel
system.
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
More than 8 litres of fuel must be added in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3 cut-off of the nozzle. This could
rd
cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 80 litres.
- After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap
and close the flap.
