RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
If your vehicle is fi tted with an HDI en-
gine, the fuel system must be primed if
you run out of fuel.
This system consists of a priming pump
and a transparent pipe under the bonnet.
Fill the fuel tank with at least fi ve litres
of Diesel.
Open the bonnet.
Depending on version, unclip the
cover to gain access to the priming
pump.
Squeeze and release the priming
pump until resistance is felt (could
be from the fi rst application) and fuel
appears in the transparent pipe with
the green connector.
Operate the starter until the engine
starts.
Depending on version, put the cover
back in position and clip it in place.
Close the bonnet.
If the engine does not start at the
fi rst attempt, do not try again.
Operate the priming pump again,
then the starter.
