FUEL TANK (2/3)
Petrol version
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) must conform
with the specifications given on the
label inside the fuel filler flap
A
.
Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms to the specifications given on
the label inside fuel filler flap
A
.
Filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle to open valve B and
insert it fully before turning it on to fill
the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Hold it in this position for the whole fill-
ing operation. Following the first auto-
matic shut-off at the end of filling, the
trigger can be pulled two more times at
most, to leave room for expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. Valve
B
and its sur-
round 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).
Persistent smell of fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
–
s
top the vehicle as soon
as traffic conditions allow and
switch off the ignition;
–
s
witch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and stay clear
of the traffic;
–
contact an approved Dealer

ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (3/3)
– 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.
–
N
ever fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
–
D
o not leave an empty roof rack
fitted to the vehicle.
–
It
is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob-
jects.
–
W
hen towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.
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”).
–
U
se the air vents. Driving with the
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%. –
A
void using the vehicle for door-to-
door journeys (short journeys, with
long stops in-between) because in
these conditions, the engine never
reaches its ideal temperature.
Tyres
Increased fuel consumption could be
the result of:
–
insuf
ficient pressure,
–
using non-recommended tyres.

Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Operating faults –
W
arning light x lights up on the
instrument panel: the ABS is deacti-
vated.
Braking safety is still guaranteed.
–

strument panel, this indicates a
fault in the braking system.
In both cases, consult an approved
Dealer.
Yo u r b r a k i n g s y s t e m s
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.

Respect local regulations about wash-
ing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your ve-
hicle on a public highway).
Observe the vehicle stopping distances
when driving on gravelled surfaces to
prevent paint damage.
Repair, or have repaired quickly, areas
where the paint has been damaged, to
prevent corrosion spreading.
Remember to visit the body shop pe-
riodically in order to maintain your
anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the
Maintenance Document.
If it is necessary to clean mechani-
cal components, hinges, etc., spray
them with products approved by our
Technical Department to protect them
after they have been cleaned.
BOdyWORk MAINTENANCE (2/2)
We have selected special products
to care for your vehicle and you can
obtain these from the manufactur-
er’s accessory outlets.
Using a roller type car wash
Return the windscreen wiper stalk to
the Park position (refer to the informa-
tion on the “Windscreen washer, wiper”
in Section 1). Check the mounting of
external accessories, additional lights
and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper
blades are secured with adhesive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your
vehicle is fitted with this equipment.
Remember to remove the tape and refit
the antenna after washing.
Cleaning the headlights
As the headlights are made of plastic
“glass”, use a soft cloth or cotton wool
to clean them. If this does not clean
them properly, moisten the cloth with
soapy water, then wipe clean with a soft
damp cloth or cotton wool.
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry
cloth.
Cleaning products containing alco-
hol must not be used.
Vehicles with a matte paint
finish
This type of paint requires certain pre-
cautions.
d
o not do the following
–
use wax-based products (polishing);
–
rub hard;
–
wash
the vehicle in a roller-type car
wash;
–
wash
the vehicle using a high-pres-
sure device;
–
attach
stickers to the paintwork (risk
of leaving marks).
you should do the following
W
ash the vehicle by hand using plenty
of water, using a soft cloth or a gentle
sponge.

Present the jack horizontally, the jack
head must slide in the lower slot in the
body, as close as possible to the wheel
concerned.
Crank up the jack
1 by hand to align the
base plate (slightly inwards under the
vehicle). Place a plank of wood under
the base plate if on soft ground.
Changing a wheel
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level sur-
face where it will not slip (if neces-
sary, place a solid support under the
jack base).
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse, or P for au-
tomatic transmissions). Ask the pas-
sengers to leave the vehicle and to
keep away from traffic.
If you have a puncture, re-
place the wheel as soon as
possible.
A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.

Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim,
refer to the information on “Wheel trims/
Wheels” in this Section. Undo the wheel
bolts using wheelbrace
2 .
Fit it so that
you press downwards rather than pull-
ing upwards.
To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.
