Fuel tank (filling with fuel)
FUEL TANK (1/3)
Capacity of the fuel tank: 50 litres ap-
proximately.
The cap A can be unlocked with the ig-
nition key.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer
to the information on “Filling with fuel”.
There is a cap holder 1 on the fuel filler
flap for holding the cap when the tank is
being filled.Fuel filler cap: this is spe-
cific to the vehicle type. If
you have to replace it, make
sure the new cap is of the
same type. Contact an approved
dealer.
Never place the cap near a source
of heat or flame.
Do not wash the filler area with a
high-pressure washer.
Fuel grade
Use a high-grade fuel that complies
with the legislation in force in each
country. It must conform to the specifi-
cations given on label B inside the fuel
filler flap.
Refer to the “Engine specifications”
table in Section 6.
Vehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
Always use unleaded petrol or fuel
containing a maximum of 85 percent
ethanol (E85).
In very cold conditions it may be difficult
or even impossible to start the engine.
To avoid this problem, use unleaded
petrol.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
When the fuel is changed the engine
must adjust, which may cause minor in-
conveniences for a few minutes (longer
starting times, cutting out, etc.).
1
A
Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un -
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
Do not add any additives to the fuel,
you risk damaging the engine.
Do not wash the filler
area with a high-pressure
washer.

FUEL TANK (2/3)
Petrol version
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) should match
the information given on the label B lo-
cated inside the fuel filler flap.
Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms to the specifications given on
the label inside fuel flap B.Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle to
open the valve and insert it fully before
turning it on to fill the fuel tank (risk of
splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi -
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The valve and its sur-
round must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent
fuel odour you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and stay clear
of the traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.

Running out of fuel on diesel
versions
Vehicles with priming pump 2
After a breakdown caused by com -
pletely running out of fuel, the system
must be reprimed before the engine is
restarted:
Operate priming bulb 2 until the fuel
flows through the hose 3.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, contact an approved dealer.
The engine may be hot
when working in close prox-
imity. In addition, the engine
cooling fan may come on at
any moment.
Risk of injury.
No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wiring,
fuel circuit, injector, protection
covers, etc.) as this may be danger-
ous (such work must be undertaken
by qualified Network personnel).

Vehicles without manual priming
pump
Put the ignition key in “Ignition On” (M)
position and wait a few minutes before
starting. This will enable the fuel circuit
to be primed. If the engine does not
start, repeat the procedure.

SPECIAl fEATURES Of PETROl vERSIONS
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub -
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
The following operating conditions
should be avoided:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives
which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition, running out of fuel or
disconnected spark plugs resulting
in the engine misfiring or cutting out
when driving;
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu
-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance Document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con -
verter, do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
cause of the fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
continue to try and start the engine, but
contact an approved dealer.

SPECIAl fEATURES Of DIESEl vERSIONS
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with an injec -
tion pump which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Running out of fuel
If the tank has been completely
drained, the system must be reprimed
after the tank is refilled: see information
on the “Fuel tank” in section 1 before
restarting the engine.Precautions to be taken in winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
– ensure that the battery is always fully
charged,
– always keep the diesel tank rela -
tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing in it and accumulating at the
bottom of the tank.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub -
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with a hot exhaust system.

ADvICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (1/3)
Your vehicle complies with criteria for
recycling and recovering vehicles at the
end of their service life which will come
into force in 2015.
Some parts of your vehicle have there-
fore been designed to facilitate future
recycling.
These parts are easy to remove so
that they can be recovered and reproc-
essed by recycling companies.
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel
consumption and initial settings, your
vehicle also conforms to current anti-
pollution regulations. The manufacturer
is actively striving to reduce pollutant
exhaust gas emissions and to save
energy. However, the fuel consumption
of your vehicle and the level of pollutant
exhaust gas emissions are also your
responsibility. Ensure that it is main -
tained and used correctly.Maintenance
It is important to remember that failure to
respect antipollution regulations could
lead to legal action being taken against
the vehicle owner. In addition, replacing
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust
components with parts other than those
originally recommended by the manu -
facturer may alter your vehicle so that
it no longer complies with antipollution
regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and
checked by an approved dealer, in ac-
cordance with the instructions given
in your Maintenance Service Booklet:
they will have all the equipment nec -
essary for ensuring that your vehicle is
maintained to its original standard.
Engine adjustments– ignition: this does not require ad -
justment.
– spark plugs: for optimum fuel econ-
omy, efficiency and performance
the specifications laid down by our
Design Department must be strictly
applied.
If the spark plugs have to be
changed, use the make, type and
gap specified for your vehicle’s
engine. Contact an approved dealer
for this.
– idle: this does not require adjust -
ment.
– air filter, diesel filter: a clogged ele-
ment reduces performance. It must
be replaced.

– Brake as little as possible by suitably
anticipating an obstacle or bend and
then simply releasing the accelerator
pedal.
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears.
Always use the highest gear possi -
ble without labouring the engine.
– Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on level roads. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off the engine are
unnecessary in modern vehicles.
– Bad weather, flooded roads.
Do not drive through water
if it is higher than the lower
edge of the wheel rim.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub -
stances may be released into the at -
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in -
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult
your approved dealer as soon as
possible;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
Driving
– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
ADvICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
Driver obstruction
On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with
the pre-fitted components, and check the fitting regularly. Do not lay sev-
eral mats on top of each other.
There is a risk of wedging the pedals.
