Fuel filler neck at right rear side of vehicle.
The tank flap is locked together with the
doors 330.
Open tank flap.
Unscrew the fuel filler cap, remove and
suspend from the tank flap.
The fuel tank has a limiting system which
prevents overfilling of the tank. Correct filling depends to a large extent on
proper operation of
the fuel dispensing
pump:
1. Fully insert the pump nozzle and switch it on.
2. After automatically switching off, the specified tank capacity is achieved by
means of metered re fuelling (twice).
Insert fuel dispensing pump as far as
possible.
To close, place fuel filler cap in position and
turn, overcoming the resistance until the
ratchet on the cap engages audibly. Close fuel tank cover.
Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
