Accessory electrical devices
If you wish to install accessories that
require electric power (which may
gradually discharge the battery),
please contact an Authorised Service
Centre of the Manufacturer’s
Network, where the overall electrical
absorption of the accessories will be
estimated and the vehicle system
checked to verify whether it is capable
of supporting the required load. Code Card

EMERGENCY OPENING
If necessary, the rear window can be opened by
pulling the cable
C positioned underneath the
luggage shelf behind the seats.The cap is linked to the filler neck with a strap, to
prevent it from being lost while refuelling.
The fuel tank door must be re-closed manually.
Before closing the fuel tank door, check that the
fuel filler cap is fully tightened.
CAUTION
Do not bring open flames or lit
cigarettes close to the tank filler neck:
risk of fire!
Also avoid putting your face close to the filler so
as not to inhale noxious fumes.
FUEL TANK DOOR The fuel tank door is found on the right-hand rear
side of the vehicle. To open the door, press on it
as shown in the figure.
It may only be opened after deactivating the
central door locking.
The cap’s hermetic seal may result in a slight
pressure increase in the tank. Any hissing noise
whilst the cap is being released is therefore
completely normal.
When refuelling, the cap must remain attached
to the door by means of the hook provided
A.
