FUEL TANK DOOR

The fuel tank door is found on the right-hand rear
side of the vehicle. To open the door, press on it
as shown in the figure.
It may only be opened after deactivating the
central door locking.
The tank cap hermetic seal may result in a slight
pressure increase inside the tank. Any hissing
noise while the cap is being opened is therefore
completely normal.

BEFORE YOU DRIVE
For proper refuelling, the fuel pump nozzle
must be positioned in such a way that its axis is
perpendicular to that of the vehicle.
The permitted rotation angle is clearly shown on
the label next to the filler neck.
