FUEL TANK

Capacity of the tank: approxi-
mately 71 litres.
Low fuel level
When the minimum level
in the tank is reached,
this warning light comes
on on the instrument
panel, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message on the multi-
function display.

You have enough fuel left to drive
approximately
30 miles
(
approx.

50 km
).
 Press at the top left corner, then
pull open from the left.
 turn the key a quarter turn to lock
and unlock the fi ller cap,

 when refuelling, place the cap on
hook A ,

 fi ll the tank, but do not persist
after the third cut-off ; this could
cause your vehicle to malfunction.

While you are refuelling, the engine
must be stopped and the ignition
switched off.

For a petrol engine with a cata-
lytic converter, unleaded fuel is
compulsory.
Opening the fuel flap
The fi ller neck is narrower to en-
sure that only unleaded petrol can
be put in.

Fuel quality
A label inside the fi ller fl ap tells you
which type of fuel to use.
The petrol engines are designed to
run on RON 95.
However, for better performance
(petrol engine), we recommend
RON 98.
In winter conditions, starting from
cold may sometimes seem diffi cult.
During periods of very cold weather
we recommend the use of 95 or 98
unleaded petrol in preference to E85
so as to ensure optimum starting
performance.
BioFlex engine
A Biofl ex vehicle is one that has
been designed to operate equally
on unleaded petrol (95 or 98 RON)
or on bioethanol (in Europe this is a
mixture of 85 % ethanol and 15 %
unleaded petrol, known as E85).
As a result, no matter how much fuel
remains in the tank, and whatever this
fuel may be (unleaded petrol, E85 or
a mixture of the two) you can refuel at
any time with unleaded petrol (95 or
98 RON) or with bioethanol (E85).
There is no problem in running this
vehicle on only unleaded petrol.

If you should put in fuel that is
not suitable for your vehicle's
engine type, it is imperative to
have the tank drained before
you start the engine again.

LIGHTING CONTROLS
System for selection and control of
the various front and rear lights pro-
viding the vehicle's lighting.

The various front and rear lights of
the vehicle are designed to adapt
the driver's visibility progressively in
relation to the climatic conditions:
- side lights, to be seen,
- dipped headlamps to see without dazzling other drivers,
- main beam headlamps to see clearly when the road is clear,
- directional headlamps for im- proved visibility when cornering.
Additional lighting
Other lights are installed to fulfi l the
requirements of particular driving
conditions:
- a rear fog lamp to be seen from a distance,
- front fog lamps for even better visibility,
- daytime lights to be seen during the day. Programming
Various automatic lighting control
modes are also available according
to the following options:
- guide-me-home lighting,
- automatic lighting,
- directional lighting.
Manual controls
lights off,
automatic switching on of
the lights,
side lights only,
dipped headlamps or
main beam headlamps.

B. lever for inversion of the lights by
pulling: dipped headlamps/main
beam headlamps.
In the lights off and side lights
modes, the driver can switch on
the main beam headlamps directly
("headlamp fl ash") for as long as he
pulls the lever.

C. fog lamps selection ring.
The fog lamps operate with the side
lights and the dipped and main beam
headlamps.
- 1 st turn forwards: lighting of rear foglamps.
- 1 st turn rearwards: extinction of rear foglamps. - 1 st turn forwards: lighting of front
foglamps.
- 2 nd turn forwards: lighting of rear foglamps.
- 1 st turn rearwards: extinction of rear foglamps.
- 2 nd turn rearwards: extinction of front foglamps.
Model with rear foglamps
only
Model with front and rear
foglamps In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, the front fog lamps and
the rear fog lamps are prohibited.
In these situations, the power of
their beams may dazzle other driv-
ers. They should only be used in
fog or snow.
In these weather conditions, it is
your responsibility to switch on the
fog lamps and dipped headlamps
manually as the brightness sensor
may detect suffi cient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
fog lamps and the rear fog lamps
when they are no longer neces-
sary.
Lights on buzzer
The triggering of an audible signal
when a front door is opened warns
the driver that he has forgotten to
switch off his vehicle's lights, with
the ignition off and in manual lights
mode.
In this case, switching off the lights
stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped
headlamps remain on, they will
switch off automatically after thirty
minutes to prevent discharging of
the battery.
