FUEL TANK (1/3)
Useable fuel tank capacity:
60 litres approximately.
With the vehicle unlocked, to open the 
compartment B, place your finger into 
the recess C.
Valve A is integrated into the filler pipe. For details on filling the fuel tank, refer 
to the information on “Filling with fuel”.
To close it, press on the fuel filler flap by 
hand, as far as it will go.
Fuel grade
Use a high-grade fuel  that complies 
with the legislation in force in each 
country and which  must conform to 
the specifications given on the label on 
cover  B. Please refer to the information 
on “Engine specifications” in Section 6.
Diesel versions
It is  essential to use diesel fuel that 
conforms with the information given on 
the label inside cover  B.
Petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol. 
The octane rating (RON) must conform 
to the specifications on the label inside 
fuel filler flap  B. Refer to the information 
on “Engine specifications” in Section 6.
Never  press valve A with your fingers.
Do not wash the filler area with a high-pressure washer.

Vehicles running on ethanol-
based fuel
It is  essential to use unleaded petrol or 
fuel containing a maximum of 85% eth-
anol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very 
difficult or even impossible to start the 
engine. To avoid this problem, use un-
leaded petrol or, on equipped vehicles, 
use the heater integrated in the engine: 
connect the special end of the exten-
sion piece supplied into the socket in-
tegrated into the radiator grille and the 
other end into a 220V socket for at least 
6 hours before starting.
Note: you may notice an increase in 
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
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 additive to the fuel –
otherwise you risk damaging the 
engine.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/3)
Tyres
–  An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption.
–  The use of non-recommended tyres  can increase fuel consumption.Advice on use
–  Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are 
not really needed.  However (safety 
first), keep your lights on when the 
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
–  Use the air vents. Driving with the  windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h) 
will increase fuel consumption by 
4%.
–  Never fill the fuel tank right to the  brim to avoid overflow. – 
In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning,  it is normal to observe an 
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in urban conditions) when 
it is used. For vehicles fitted with 
manual air conditioning, switch off 
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption 
and therefore helping  to  preserve 
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the 
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before 
starting the engine.
–  Do not leave an empty roof rack  fitted to the vehicle.
–  It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob- jects.
–  When towing a caravan, fit a wind  deflector and adjust it carefully.
–  Avoid using the car for door-to-door  calls (short journeys with long waits 
in between) because the engine 
never reaches its normal operating 
temperature.   

3.11
AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase 
in fuel consumption (especially 
when driving in town) when the air 
conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with manual air 
conditioning, switch off the system 
when it is not required.
Advice for reducing 
consumption and therefore 
helping to preserve the 
environment:
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 
frequency.Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demist-
ing or air conditioning per-
formance.  This may be caused 
by the passenger compartment 
filter cartridge becoming clogged.
–  No cold air is being produced.  
Check that the controls are set 
correctly and that the fuses are 
sound. Otherwise, switch off the 
system.
Advice on use
In some situations, (air conditioning 
off, air recirculation activated, venti-
lation speed at zero or low, etc.) you 
may notice that condensation starts 
to form on the windows and wind-
screen.
If there is condensation, use the 
“Clear View” function to remove it, 
then use the air conditioning in auto-
matic mode to stop it forming again. 
If the condensation does not clear, 
use the FAST programme.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit.  The fluid 
may damage eyes or skin.
Note
Presence of water under the ve-
hicle. After prolonged use of the air 
conditioning system, it is normal for 
water to be present under the vehi-
cle. This is caused by condensation.

Type of fuel
Octane Rating It is 
essential that you use unleaded petrol 
of the octane rating stated on the label 
inside the fuel filler flap.
If not available, for a limited time only, use 
unleaded fuel:
–  with an octane rating of 91 for a label  showing 95 or 98;
–  with an octane rating of 87 for a label  showing 91, 95 or 98. Diesel
The label located in the fuel filler flap  indicates authorised fuels.
Spark plugs Only use the spark plugs specified for your 
vehicle’s engine.
The type should be marked on a label af-
fixed inside the engine compartment. If it is 
not then contact an approved Dealer.
Fitting spark plugs which are not to specifi-
cation may damage the engine.
