WARNINGS
To avoid fuel spillage that couldbe hazardous to other roadusers, always stop refuelling after thefuel nozzle stops the second time.Additional fuel will fill the expansionspace in the fuel tank which couldlead to fuel overflowing.
The fuel system is underpressure. There is a risk of injuryif the fuel system is leaking. Do notuse any kind of flames or heat nearthe fuel system.
FUEL QUALITY
Use only high quality fuel without anysupplemental additives or otherengine treatments.
Vehicles with a petrolengine
Use unleaded petrol according tospecification EN 228 or equivalentwith minimum 95 octane. Leadedfuel or fuel/additives containing othermetallic compounds (e.g.manganese-based) may damagethe emission system.
Vehicles with a dieselengine
Use diesel fuel according tospecification EN 590 or equivalent.Do not mix it with any oil, petrol orother liquids. Diesel fuels whichcontain a mix of up to 5 % RME (biodiesel) are acceptable.
Prolonged use of supplementaladditives to prevent fuel waxing is notrecommended. Do not addkerosene, paraffin or petrol to dieselfuels.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Driving with a catalyticconverter
Avoid running out of fuel.
Avoid unnecessarily long enginecranking periods.
Do not run the engine with adisconnected spark plug.
Do not push-start or tow-starting thevehicle; use booster cables. SeeUsing booster cables (page 158).
Never switch off the ignition whiledriving.
Parking
WARNING
It is important to avoid parking,idling or operating the vehicle ondry leaves or dry grass. Even whenthe engine is switched off, theexhaust will continue to radiate aconsiderable amount of heat for ashort period creating a potential firehazard.

WARNINGS
Engage reverse gear only whenthe vehicle is stationary.
Do not apply any undue lateralforce to the gear lever whenchanging from 5th to 4th gear as thiscould lead to the inadvertentselection of 2nd gear.
To avoid shifting noises whenengaging the reverse gear, waitapproximately three seconds withthe clutch depressed when thevehicle is stationary.
Vehicles with 1.8 l Duratec-SCi enginereach the maximum speed only infifth gear.
Reverse gear − 5-speedtransmission
To select the reverse gear, shift thelever into the neutral position andthen press the lever fully to the rightagainst a spring pressure, beforepulling rearwards.
Reverse gear − 6-speedtransmission
1.Lift the locking ring.
2.Move the gear lever towards theleft and forwards.

TRANSMISSION
4-speed transmissionA
5-speed transmission(Durashift 5-tronic)B
Depending on the model variant, thetransmission in your vehicle is a 4- or5-speed transmission. Bothtransmissions are electronicallycontrolled but they also allow you tochange gear manually.
Gear selection
WARNING
When the vehicle is stationary,apply the parking brake ordepress the footbrake beforeselecting a gear. Failure to do socould result in the vehicle pullingaway when you have engaged agear.
Note: A cold engine runs at a higheridling speed after starting. Thiscauses a strong ‘creep’ tendency inreverse and all forward gears.
To select lever positions R and P, youmust first depress the locking buttonon the selector lever grip. On4−speed transmissions also whenselecting position 2 (except changingfrom 1 to 2).
