Fuel tank
Capacity of the tank: approximately 72 litres (or 55 litres according to version).
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to be registered by the fuel gauge. Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results from the sealing of the fuel system.  Take care to select the pump that delivers
the correct fuel type for your vehicle's engine (reminder on a label on the inside of the filler flap).
 Open the filler cap by turning it a 1/4 turn to the left.  Remove the filler cap and hang it on its
carrier (on the filler flap).
Opening
If you have put in the wrong fuel for your vehicle, you must have have
the tank drained and refilled with the correct fuel before you star t the engine.
With Stop & Star t, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the key.
- Press the switch. This control remains active for a few minutes after switching off the ignition. If necessary, switch the ignition on again to reactivate it.
Refuelling
 Introduce the nozzle and push it in fully (pushing on the the metal non-return valve A ).A Fill the tank. Do not continue past the third cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause malfunctions.  Refit the filler cap turning it a 1/4 turn to the right.  Push the filler flap to close it.
Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic conver ter, a device which helps to reduce the level of harmful emissions in the exhaust gases. For petrol engines, you must use use of unleaded fuel only. The filler neck is narrower, admitting petrol nozzles only.
