Practical information

Fuel tank
Capacity of the tank:
- Petrol: approximately 50 litres.
- Diesel: approximately 45 or 50 litres (depending on version).
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp in the instrument
panel comes on, accompanied by
an audible warning, a message and
the last bar of the fuel gauge flashes
in red.
When it first comes on, about 5 litres of fuel
remain in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the ignition
is switched on, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message. This audible warning
and message are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards "0".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out.
For more information on running out of
fuel (Diesel), refer to the corresponding
section.

Refuelling
A label on the inside of the fuel filler flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine type.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of
air. This is entirely normal and results from the
sealing of the fuel system.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
To refuel in complete safety:
F You must switch off the engine.
F Open the filler flap.
F Take care to select the pump that delivers
the correct type of fuel for your vehicle.
F Introduce the key into the cap and turn it to
the left.
