Filling the fuel tank
E00200202142WARNING
l Petrol is highly flammable and explosive.
You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling it. When refueling your ve-
hicle, always turn the engine off and keep
away from flames, sparks, and smoking
materials. Always handle fuel in well-ven-
tilated outdoor areas.
l Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to
get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the car or the
fuel pump. Any static electricity on your
body could create a spark that ignites
fuel vapour.
l Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov-
ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not
let any other person come near the fuel
tank filler. If you allowed a person to
help you and that person was carrying
static electricity, fuel vapour could be ig-
nited.
l Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er until refueling is finished. If you
moved away and did something else (for
example, cleaning your windscreen) part-
way through the refueling process, you
could pick up a fresh charge of static elec-
tricity.
l Be careful not to inhale fuel vapour. Fuel
contains toxic substances. WARNING
l Keep
the doors and windows closed while
refueling the vehicle. If they were open,
fuel vapour could get into the cabin.
Fuel tank capacity
65 litres
Refueling 1.
Before filling with fuel, stop the engine.
2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear left side of your vehicle.
The fuel tank filler door can be opened from
inside the vehicle with the fuel tank filler
door release lever located below the instru-
ment panel. 3. Open
the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turn-
ing the cap anticlockwise. A- Remove

CAUTION
l
Since the fuel system may be under pres-
sure, remove the fuel tank filler tube cap
slowly. This relieves any pressure or vac-
uum that might have built up in the fuel
tank. If you hear a hissing sound, wait un-
til it stops before removing the cap. Oth-
erwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you
or others.
4. To
fill with fuel correctly depends mainly on correct handling of the fuel filler gun. Do not
tilt the gun. Insert the gun in the tank port as
far as it goes. CAUTION
l
A
label which reads “UNLEADED FUEL
ONLY” is attached to the fuel tank filler
lid of vehicles which can only operate us-
ing unleaded petrol. Serious engine and
catalytic converter damage will result if
leaded petrol is filled into these vehicles,
and consequently, this must never be at-
tempted.
5. When
the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel any more. CAUTION
l
To
avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do
not “top-off” the fuel tank. 6. To
close, turn the fuel tank filler tube cap
slowly clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds, then gently push the fuel tank filler
door closed. CAUTION
l
If
you need to replace the fuel tank filler
tube cap, use only the cap specified for
your model vehicle. Installation of accessories

ly fitted. Please refer to the Modification/al-
teration to the electrical or fuel systems sec-
tion within this owner’s manual.
