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) .

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" m o d e).
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.
th

ere may be an inrush of air when removing
the filler cap.
t

Comprising a compressor and a sealant
cartridge, it allows the temporary repair of
a tyre so that you can drive to the nearest
garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
temporary puncture repair kit
Composition of the kit
1. 12 V compressor, with integral pressure gauge.
2.
S

ealant cartridge, with integral hose.
3.
Spe

ed limit sticker.
th

e speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the
driver's field of vision, to remind you
that a wheel is in temporary use.th
is kit is installed in the storage box, under the
boot floor.
th

e vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of a compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair or for inflating a small inflatable
accessory.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80
km/h) when driving with a tyre
repaired using this type of kit.
