Coolant temperature display
Coolant temperature display For physical reasons, the engine
temperature gauge shows the coolant
temperature only if the coolant level is
adequate.
During operation the system is pressurised.
The temperature may therefore rise briefly
to over 100 C.

The tank flap is locked together with the
doors 330.
Open tank flap.
Unscrew the fuel filler cap, remove and

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.
