Fuel and refuelling
154
DIESEL ENGINES
Vehicles with diesel e ngines are equipped with
a system to prevent the fuel tank from
emptying completely. When the fuel reaches a
minimum level, the system will activate a
reduced power mode (i.e. the engine will not
run properly). This will be followed by the
engine stopping in appr oximately 1.6 km (1
mile).
This feature prevents the fuel system from
running dry, which could cause damage to the
vehicle. If the gauge indicates low fuel or the
warning indicator illuminates, the fuel tank
should be refuelled as s oon as possible at the
next filling station, with at least 4 litres (0.9
gallons) of fuel.
If the system protection function has activated,
the vehicle must firstly be refuelled, then
restarted using the following procedure:
1. With the brake pedal pressed, press and
hold the engine START/STOP button and
crank the engine for five seconds.
2. Release the STAR T/STOP button.
3. With the brake pedal pressed, press and
release the START/STOP button to crank
the engine. The engine should start within
approximately five seconds.
Note: If the engine does not start, pause for ten
seconds with the ignition in convenience
mode, before repeating the procedure from the
beginning.
Do not crank the engine for longer than
30 seconds continuously.
FUEL FILLER FLAP
Take note of all warnings and
instruction given on the label affixed
to the inside of the filler flap.
The vehicle must be unl ocked using the Smart
Key, before the filler flap can be opened.
1. Press and release the rear of the flap (in the
area indicated) to unlatch.
2. Pull the flap open. The label on the inside of
the flap indicates the correct fuel for the
vehicle.
3. Twist the cap anticlockwise to undo.
4. Stow the cap on the lip provided on the top
of the hinge arm, as shown.
When replacing the cap, turn it clockwise until
the ratchet clicks. Failure to do so may cause
the Engine malfunction warning lamp to
illuminate. If the warning lamp illuminates,
ensure the cap is fitted properly.

LOW is displayed, stop the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so and seek
qualified assistance. Do not start the
engine until the cause has been
rectified.
Prior to checking the oil level ensure that the
vehicle is on level ground.
All except V6 petrol engines

After a collision
198
After a collisionBEFORE STARTING OR DRIVING
If the vehicle is involved in a collision
it should be checked by a Dealer/
Authorised repairer, or suitably
qualified personnel, before starting or
driving.
PEDESTRIAN PROTECTION SYSTEM
The bumper includes sensors that detect a
collision with a pedestrian and includes energy
absorbing foam and plastics in its
construction, to re duce leg injuries.
During a pedestrian co llision, the sensors
initiate a bonnet deploy ment system that
releases the bonnet hinge system and raises
the rear edge of the bonnet by approximately
130 mm (5.1 inches).
This increases the gap between the bonnet and
the components within the engine
compartment to create a cushion to mitigate
injury caused to the pedestrian.
The bonnet deployment system is active only
when the ignition is on and the vehicle is driven
between the speeds of approximately 20 km/h
(12 mph) and 45 km/h (28 mph).
AFTER DEPLOYMENT OF THE
PEDESTRIAN PROTECTION SYSTEM
Do not attempt to open the bonnet if the
pedestrian protection system has been
deployed.
The vehicle must be stopped as soon as it is
safe to do so.
The hazard warning lamp s will be activated and
can only be switched off by pressing the engine
START/STOP button to turn the engine off and
on again.
A warning message CHECK PEDESTRIAN
SYSTEM will appear on the message centre
and the vehicle should be transported to the
nearest Dealer/Author ised Repairer. The
vehicle must not be driven when the bonnet
has been deployed.
Note: If the warning message CHECK
PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM appears in the message
centre when the bonnet ha s not been deployed,
the vehicle should be taken to the nearest
Dealer/Authorised Repairer immediately. It can
be driven.
If any significant damage occurs to the front
bumper it should be inspected by a
Dealer/Authorised Repairer as soon as
possible.
