indicators and the side indicator lights 
simultaneously. It must only be used in

Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle 
and insert it fully before turning it on to 
fill the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position through-
out 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 cover A and its 
surround 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).
FUEL TANK (2/3)
Vehicle fitted with the Stop and 
Start function
To fill up with fuel, the engine must 
be stopped (and not on standby): 
stop the engine by pressing the 
engine stop button 3  (please refer 
to the information on “Starting and 
Stopping the engine” in Section 2).

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.
