Refueling
Switch off the engine before refueling,
otherwise no fuel can be filled into the
tank and a message is displayed.<

tainers in the vehicle. They can leak and cause
an explosion or a fire in an accident.<

pletely into the filler pipe. Avoid raising the filler
nozzle during refueling, otherwise this

Approx. 18.5 US gal/70 liters, including the
reserve capacity of approx. 2.6 US gal/10 liters.

ensured and damage can occur.<
