Compatibility of fuels
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with biofuels
that conform to current and future European
standards and which can be obtained from
filling stations:Petrol that meets standard EN228,
mixed with a biofuel that meets
standard EN15376.
The only petrol additives authorised for
use are those that meet the B715001
standard.
Fuel used for Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with
biofuels that conform to current and future
European standards and which can be
obtained from filling stations. Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing 0 to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester), For more information, contact the dealer
network or a qualified workshop.Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing 0 to 10% Fatty Acid
Methyl Ester),
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets
standard EN15940 mixed with
a biofuel that meets standard
EN14214 (possibly containing 0 to
7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The use of B20 or B30 fuel meeting
standard EN16709 is possible in
your Diesel engine. However, this
use, even occasional, requires strict
application of the special ser vicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions".
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk
of damage to the engine and fuel system). The only Diesel additives authorised for
use are those that meet the B715000
standard.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0°C (+32°F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could entail an abnormal operation
of the fuel supply circuit. To avoid this, we
recommend using winter-type Diesel fuel and
keeping the fuel tank more than 50% full.
If, despite this, at temperatures below -15°C
(+5°F) the engine has problems starting,
just leave the vehicle in a garage or heated
workshop for a little while.
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage the engine of your
vehicle.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific sales name…) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact the
dealer network.

Temporary puncture
repair kit
This kit comprises a compressor and a sealant
cartridge.
It allows the temporary repair of a tyre.
You are then able to go to the nearest garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures
which could affect the tyre, located on the
tyre tread or shoulder.
Its compressor can be used to check and
adjust the pressure of the tyre.
Tyre under-inflation detection
If the vehicle is fitted with tyre under-
inflation detection, the under-inflation
warning lamp will remain on after the
wheel has been repaired until the system
is reinitialised by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair. Only
the 12 V socket at the front of
the vehicle allows the compressor to be
connected for long enough to repair or
inflate the vehicle tyre.
The other 12 V sockets of the vehicle
are not designed to be used with the
compressor.
Access to the kit Composition of the kit
1.
12 V compressor, with built-in pressure
gauge.
2. Bottle of sealant, with built-in hose.
3. Speed limit sticker.
Repair procedure
