your engine. Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres, in order to be taken into account by the fuelgauge.
The key cannot be removed
from the
lock until the cap is refitted. Opening the filler cap may create a noise a caused by an inrush of air. Thisvacuum is entirely normal, resulting from the sealin
