Low fuel levelRefuelling
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp comes on and the
last bar flashes, accompanied by an
audible signal.
You have approximately 5 litres remaining.
In certain driving conditions and depending on the
engine, the distance which can be travelled with the
fuel remaining may be less than 30 miles (50 km).
When the frequency of the flashing increases, you
have approximately 3 litres remaining .
To refuel in complete safety:
F
Y ou must stop the engine and switch off
the ignition (ignition in "LOCK" position
or "OFF" mode) .

If you run out of fuel, the emission
control system warning lamp may come
on in the instrument panel. It will go off
automatically after the engine has been
started a few times. Refuelling must only be done with the engine
stopped and the ignition switched off
( ignition
switch in the " LOCK" position or " OFF" mode).
The capacity of the fuel tank is approximately 35 litres.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
A label on the inside of the flap reminds you
which type of fuel to use.

the filler cap. This vacuum is per fectly normal
and results from the sealing of the fuel system.
