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.

To apply
Pull lever 1 upwards and make sure the
vehicle is immobilised.
Depending on the gradient
and/or vehicle load, it may
be necessary when station-
ary to apply the brake by
at least a further two notches and
engage a gear (1
st or reverse gear).
Never switch off the igni -
tion when travelling down -
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance

Power-assisted steering
With the engine running, do not leave
the steering wheel at full lock while sta-

assisted steering pump.
With the engine switched off, or if there
is a system fault, it is still possible to
turn the steering wheel. The force re -
quired will be greater.

Turn control 1 to position the cursor
facing the symbols identified.
JAll the air flow is directed to the
dashboard vents.
GThe air flow is directed towards
the dashboard vents and the
footwells.
FThe air flow is mainly distrib -
uted between the front and
rear footwells and the dashboard vents.
Close the dashboard vents to direct all
the air to the foot wells.
iThe air flow is distributed be -
tween all the air vents, the
front side window demisting air vents,
the windscreen demisting vents and the
footwells.
WAll the air is then directed to
the windscreen and front side
window demisting vents.
Switching air conditioning on
or off
The air conditioning is switched on (in-
dicator light illuminated) or off (indicator
light extinguished) using button 2.
Activation is not possible if control 3 is
set to 0.
The air conditioning system is used
for:
– lower the temperature inside the
passenger compartment;
– eliminate condensation more quickly.
Fuel consumption increases when the
air conditioning is being used (switch it
off when it is not required).
The air conditioning does not operate
when the exterior temperature is low.

Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in
fuel consumption (especially when driv-
ing in town) when the air conditioning is
operating.
For vehicles fitted with air conditioning
with no automatic mode, switch off the
system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the environ-
ment
Drive with the air vents open and the
windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few moments
to let the hot air escape before starting
the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection fre -
quency.
Air conditioning: information and advice on use
AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap -
proved dealer in the event of an oper-
ating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demisting
or air conditioning performance .
This may be caused by the passen-
ger compartment filter cartridge be -
coming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced .
Check that the controls are set cor-
rectly and that the fuses are sound.
Otherwise, switch off the system.
Presence of water under the
vehicle
After prolonged use of the air condi -
tioning system, it is normal for water
to be present under the vehicle. This is
caused by condensation.
Do not open the refriger -
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
