FUEL
If you should put in fuel that is not suitable for your vehicle'sengine type, it is imperative to have the tank drained beforeyou start the engine again.
While you are refuelling, theengine must be stopped and the
ignition switched off.
When you are seeking to fi ll your
tank, do not persist after the
third cut-off; that could cause
your vehicle to malfunction.
Fuel must be added in quantitiesof more than 5 litres to be reco-gnised by the fuel gauge.
To open the fl ap, press button A. Undo the cap and attach it to the
tab on the inside of the fl ap.
Opening the cap can trigger a
vacuum. This results in a noise caused by the sealing of the fuel circuit.Note: The fuel fl ap is locked when you lock your vehicle with the remote control.

A label inside the fi ller fl ap tells you
which type of fuel to use.
