be reduced. Make some light brake
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes.
If this warning lamp comes

FILLING WITH FUEL
Low fuel level
Filling
The fuel tank must be filled with the
engine off.
-
Open the fuel filler flap.
-
Insert the key
, then turn it a quarter
turn.
-
Remove the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the
flap.
When fillin
g with fuel, a
mechanical system prevents
opening of the left-hand side door.
When the fuel filler flap is open, ensure
that no one tries to slide this door.
Once the flap has been closed, the
sliding side door may jam, push the
door to close it then open it.
When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
lamp comes on.
You then have
approximately 8 litres of
fuel remaining. Fill up without delay to
avoid running out of fuel.
Never risk driving until you run out of
fuel as this may damage the emissions
control and injection systems. A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
You must fill with at least 5 litres of fuel
for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel filler cap is opened,
there may be a slight air suction noise.
t
his vacuum is entirely normal and is
due to the sealing of the fuel circuit.
When filling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the
nozzle. t
his could cause malfunctions.
t
he capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 60 litres.
-
After fillin
g the fuel tank, lock the
cap and close the flap.

Type A
All glass bulb: pull gently
as it is fitted by pressure.
High pressure washing
Open the bonnet. to access the bulbs,
reach behind the headlamp unit.
Carry out the operations in reverse
order to refit each bulb and check that
the bonnet is closed securely
. Type C
Halogen bulb: release the
retaining spring from its
housing. Type B
Bayonet bulb: press
on the bulb then turn it
anticlockwise.
Halogen bulbs must be changed
with the headlamp off. Wait a few
minutes (risk of serious burns).
Do not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use lint-free cloths.
It is normal for condensation to form
inside the headlamps. Regular use of
the vehicle eliminates this misting.
t
he bulbs must be changed with
the ignition off or with the battery
disconnected. Wait approximately
3 minutes after changing the bulb
before reconnecting the battery.
Check that the lamps operate correctly
after each operation.
When using this type of washing
on stubborn dirt, do not persist on
the headlamps, the lamps and their
edges to avoid damaging their coating
and seals.
