Fueling procedure
Fig. 174 Right rear side of the vehicle: opening the fue l
filler door
Fig . 175 Engaged fue l pump nozz le
The fuel filler door is unlocked or locked by the
central locking system .
.. Press on the fuel filler door to open
-arrow- ~
fig. 174. Your vehicle comes with a
new tank system without a cap.
.. Insert the fuel pump nozzle all the way into the
tank filler neck¢
fig. 175. Make sure it is cor
rectly locked in place.
• Begin fueling. Once the pump no zzle switches
off, the fuel tank is "full" . Do not fill the tank
more . Otherwise the expansion space in the
tank will be filled .
.. Pull the pump nozz le out of the tank filler neck
five seconds after it has switched off, so that
the rest of the fuel can flow out of the pump
nozzle into the filler neck.
.. Close fue l filler door until it latches.
The correct f uel type for your vehicle can be
found on a label located on the inside of the fuel
filler door. For additional information on fuel,
see ¢
page 231.
The fuel tank capacity of your vehicle is listed in
the
Technical Data section Q page 291 .
Checking and Filling
A WARNING
-Fuel ignites easily and can cause serious burns
and other injuries.
- Do not smoke or have an open flame in the
area when fueling your vehicle or filling a
fuel container because this increases the
risk of an explosion .
- Follow legal requirements when using, stor
ing and transporting fuel containers .
- For safety reasons, we recommend not car
rying fuel containers . The container could be
damaged in an accident and leak fuel.
- If you must transport fuel in a fuel contain
er, note the following:
- Never fill the fuel container with fuel
while it is in or on the vehicle. Static elec
tricity is discharged when filling which can
cause the fuel vapors to ignite and in
creases the risk of an exp losion . Always
place the container on the ground when
fill ing it.
- The fuel pump nozzle must be inserted as
far as poss ible into the filler opening on
the fuel container .
-If the fuel container is made of metal, the
fuel nozzle must always be in contact with
the container when filling it with fuel. This
prevents static electricity from discharg
ing .
- Never spill fuel in the vehicle or the lug
gage compartment. Evaporated fuel is
ex
plosive and increases the risk of serious in
jury or death.
(D Note
-Remove spilled fuel from vehicle pa int im
mediately, because it can damage paint.
- Never drive until the fuel tank is completely
empty . The irregular supply of fue l that re
sults from that can cause engine misfires.
Uncombusted fuel will enter the exhaust
system and increase the risk of damage to
the catalytic converter.
@) For the sake of the environment
Do not overfill the fuel tank, otherwise fuel
can leak out when the veh icle is warming up.
