After filling, check that the

Filling with fuel
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made to maintain an expan­
sion volume.
Make sure that no water enters the fu­
el tank during filling.
After filling, refit the cap 2 and close
the flap 1 to prevent any water or for­
eign bodies from entering the system.
Always make sure that the cap 2 , the
flap 1 and its perimeter remain clean
and free of dust, mud, dirt, etc.
Fuels that comply with the
European standards with
which vehicle engines mar­
keted in Europe are compatible
�� 376.
Special case
When the vehicle has been stationary
for around three months, you must
add fuel to prevent damage to the fu­
el pump.
To do this, with the ignition off, fill up
with fuel or add at least approximately
2.20 gallons (10 litres) then start the
engine to operate the pump and renew
the fuel in the circuit.
If it is not possible to add at least 2.20
gallons (10 litres) of fuel due to the fuel
level in the tank, drive the vehicle until
the tank has capacity.
Fuel grade
It is essential to use diesel. Make sure
that no water enters the tank acciden­
tally during filling. The sealing system
and its surrounding area must be dust-
free.
Use a high-grade fuel that complies
with the specific or equivalent legisla­
tion in force in the country where the
vehicle is marketed. It must comply
with the indications shown on the label
located on the flap 1 �� 375.
