Fuel tank
Low fuel levelFilling
A label affixed to the inside of the flap reminds
you of the type of fuel to be used depending on
your engine.
When the low fuel level is reached
this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel. When it first comes
on there remains approximately
5 litres of fuel in the tank. To fill the tank safely:
F

t
he engine must be switched off,
F

o
pen the fuel filler flap,
F

i
nsert the key in the cap, then turn it to
the


left,
F

r
emove the cap and hook it onto the clip
located on the inside of the flap,
F

f
ill the tank, but do not continue after the
3rd cut- off of the pump ; this could cause
malfunctions.
When you have filled the tank:
F

p
ut the cap back in place,
F

t
urn the key to the right, then remove it
from the cap,
F

ad

ditions of fuel must be of at least
5

litres to be registered by the fuel
gauge.
The key cannot be removed from the
lock until the cap is refitted.
op

ening the filler cap may create a
noise caused by an inrush of air. This
vacuum is entirely normal and results
from the sealing of the fuel system. With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres
(petrol) or 48 litres (Diesel); (Depending
on version: approximately 30 litres
(petrol or Diesel)). For the LPG version:
approximately 33 litres.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (
di

esel), refer also to the
"Checks" section.
