Refuelling
A label on the inside of the fl ap re-
minds you of the type of fuel to be
used for your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be
added in order to be registered by
the fuel gauge.
The key cannot be removed from
the lock until the cap is put back on
the tank.
Opening the cap may cause an in-
rush of air. This vacuum, which is
perfectly normal, is caused by the
sealing of the fuel system. Petrol vehicles: the fi ller neck has a
narrower orifi ce to admit only petrol
fi ller nozzles.

Capacity of the tank: approximately 60 litres.
Low fuel level When the minimum level
in the fuel tank is reached,
this warning lamp in the in-
strument panel comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the multifunction
screen. When it fi rst comes on, you
have approximately 6 litres of fuel
remaining in the tank.
You must refuel to avoid running out
of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer to
the "Checks" section also.
