The 2.0 HDi engine makes use of advanced technology.
Any repair work must be carried out by suitably qualified
personnel, such as can be provided by the dealer network.
Priming the fuel system In the event of running out of fuel:
A 1.9 D ENGINE: - After filling (5 litres minimum), operate the manual priming pump untilsome resistance is felt.
- Operate the starter motor while depressing the accelerator pedal slightly until the engine starts.
If the engine fails to start at the first attempt, wait 15 seconds before trying again. If the engine fails to start after several attempts, repeat the procedure from the beginning. When the engine is idling, accelerate slightly to complete the bleeding of the circuit. Engine 2.0 HDi: After adding fuel, turn the ignition key to position M, then operate the star-
ter motor until the engine starts. Injection pump Do not remove the seals on the pump setting screws under any circum- stances. Alteration of the settings might lead to early engine failure and loss of war-
ranty cover.
B Draining water from the fuel filter Bleed regularly (each time the engine is drained).
To remove the water, loosen the bleed screw at the bottom of the filter.Operate until all the water has been expelled.

and minimum marks on
the reservoir. Never run the engine without oil in the pump reservoir; the pump willbe severely damaged and couldseize. Oil quality: see Ç Lubricants and
fluids È. Engine oilCheck with the vehicle on level
ground, and the engine off for atleast 10 minutes.
Take out the oil dipstick.The level must be between the MAX
and MIN marks on the dips-

ne is hot (even when switched off).
Topping up the cooling system The coolant level should be between the MAXIMUM and MINIMUM marks on the header tank.
Top up the level. If more than I litre is required to top up, have
the cooling system checked by your dealer. Ensure that the cap is fully tightened to the second notch. Note:
Frequent topping up could indicate a fault within the cooling system.
Have it checked as soon as possible.The replacement of the coolant must be carried out by the dealer network. Coolant The antifreeze in the coolant protects against low temperatures and provides anti-corrosion protection and resistance to high operating temperatures.However these properties degrade progressively with time. Oil quality: see Ç Lubricants and fluids È.
Radiator - coolantThe coolant must only be checked or topped up if the engine is cold. Engine hot:
Wait 15 minutes or until the tempe- rature is below 100 degrees C.Using a cloth to protect your hands,slowly slacken the filler cap as far
