Petrol and diesel versions
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.
Diesel version
Use diesel engine fuel only. Make sure
that no water accidentally enters the
fuel tank during filling. The fuel filler
cap and neck must be clean and dust-
free. The diesel fuel must be of a high
grade.System for cutting off the
fuel supply in the event of a
severe impact
Refer to the information on the “Fuel
cut-off system in the event of a severe
impact” in Section 5.
Filling with fuel
Petrol versions
Use unleaded petrol only.
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
valve which only allows the nozzle
for unleaded petrol to be used (at the
pump).
–

Insert the nozzle as far as it will go
and so as to open the valve.
–

Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling opera-
tion.
FUEL TANK (2/2)
No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (electronic unit,
wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protec-
tive covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (unless undertaken by
qualified Network personnel).
Persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
–
stop the vehicle as soon as traf -
fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
–

switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from traffic;
–

contact an approved Dealer.

Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such as
grass or leaves can come into con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.
The following operating conditions
should be avoided:
–
driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
–

using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives
which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
–
faulty ignition, running out of fuel or
disconnected spark plugs resulting
in the engine misfiring or cutting out
when driving;
–

loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance Service Booklet.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter,
do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
cause of the fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
continue to try and start the engine, but
contact an approved dealer.

where combustible sub-
stances or materials such as
grass or leaves can come into con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
– make sure that the battery is always
fully charged;
–

always keep the diesel tank rela -
tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing in it and accumulating at the
bottom of the tank.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment incorporating a mechanical
regulator which prevents overrevving
of the engine irrespective of the gear
in use.
Running out of fuel
You may start the engine normally after
refilling the fuel tank even if you have
completely run out of fuel , provided
that the battery is well-charged.
However, if the engine fails to start after
a few seconds and several attempts,
contact an approved Dealer.

ADvIcE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (1/3)
Engine adjustments
– Ignition: this does not require ad-
justment.
–
Spark plugs: for optimum fuel econ-
omy, efficiency and performance,
the specifications laid down by our
Design Department must be strictly
applied.
If the spark plugs have to be changed,
use the make, type and gap specified
for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an
approved Dealer for this.
–

Idle speed: this does not require ad-
justment.
–

Air filter, diesel filter: a choked el-
ement hinders performance. It must
be replaced.
Maintenance
It should be noted that failure to respect
antipollution regulations may lead to
legal action being taken against the
vehicle owner. In addition, replacing
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust
components with parts other than those
originally recommended by the manu-
facturer may alter your vehicle so that
it no longer complies with antipollution
standards.
Have your vehicle checked and ad-
justed by an approved Dealer in ac-
cordance with the instructions in your
Maintenance Service Booklet. Your
Dealer has all the equipment necessary
for ensuring that your vehicle is main-
tained to its original standard.
Your vehicle has been designed to
actively strive to reduce the pollutant
exhaust gas emissions and to save
energy.
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel
consumption and initial settings, your
vehicle conforms to current antipollu-
tion regulations. But the fuel consump-
tion of your vehicle and the level of pol-
lutant exhaust gas emissions are also
your responsibility. Make sure that your
vehicle is maintained and used cor-
rectly.

Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system
will detect any operating faults in the
vehicle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-
stances may be released into the at-
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThe instrument panel warning
light shows any system faults:
This comes on when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after 3 sec-
onds.
–
if it lights up continuously, consult an
approved Dealer as soon as possi-
ble;
–

if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
ADvIcE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
Driving
– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
–

Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot. –

Brake as little as possible by suitably
anticipating an obstacle or bend and
then simply releasing the accelerator
pedal.
–

Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in -
termediate gears. Always use the
highest gear possible without labour-
ing the engine.
–

Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
–

Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
–

Bad weather, flooded roads.
Do not drive through floods
if the depth of water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.

Advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all electri-
cal components which are not really
needed. h
owever (safety first), keep
your lights on when the visibility is
poor (“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%. –

In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning , it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in city conditions) when it is
used. For vehicles fitted with manual
air conditioning, switch off the system
when it is not required.
Some advice for reducing fuel
consumption and therefore helping
to protect 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.
–

Never fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
–

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 an ap -
proved wind deflector and adjust it
carefully; –

Avoid using the vehicle for door -
to-door calls (short journeys with
long waits in between) because the
engine never reaches its normal op-
erating temperature.
t yres
– Inadequate pressures may increase
fuel consumption.
–
The use of non-recommended tyres
can increase fuel consumption.

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 vehi-
cles fitted with manual air condition-
ing, 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 Service
Booklet for your vehicle for the in-
spection frequency.
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 ve-
hicle. This is caused by condensa-
tion.
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved Dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault.
–

r eduction in de-icing, demist -
ing or air conditioning perform-
ance. 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.
Do not add anything to the
vehicle’s ventilation circuit
(for example, to remove
bad odours).
t h

ere is a risk of damage or of
fire.
