Interpreting some of the
values displayed after
resetting
The values showing average fuel con -
sumption, range and average speed
will become more stable and reliable
the further you travel after pressing the
reset button.
For the first few miles after pressing the
reset key you will notice that the range
increases as you travel. This range
takes into account the average fuel con-
sumption since the last time the reset
button was pressed. Therefore, the fuel
consumption may decrease when:
– the vehicle stops accelerating;
– the engine reaches its operat -
ing temperature (if the engine
was cold when the reset key was
pressed);
– driving from an urban area onto
the open road;
Therefore, if the average fuel con-
sumption decreases, the range
will increase. –
You may also notice that the aver -
age fuel consumption increases
when the vehicle is stationary and
the engine idling.
This is normal, since the computer
takes account of fuel used during
idling.
Manually resetting the journey param -
eters: with the display showing one of
the journey parameters, press button 2
until the display is reset.
Automatically resetting the journey pa-
rameters: the reset is automatic when
the capacity of one of the memories is
exceeded.

Fuel tank (filling with fuel)
FUEL TANK (1/3)
Capacity of the fuel tank: 50 litres ap-
proximately.
The cap can be unlocked with the igni -
tion key.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer
to the information on “Filling with fuel”.
There is a cap holder 1 on the fuel filler
flap for holding the cap when the tank is
being filled.
Fuel grade
Always use a high-grade fuel that
complies with the legislation in force
in each country. It must conform to the
specifications given on label A inside
the fuel filler flap.
Refer to the “Engine specifications”
table in Section 6.
Vehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
Always use unleaded petrol or fuel
containing a maximum of 85 percent
ethanol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
When the fuel is changed the engine
must adjust, which may cause minor in-
conveniences for a few minutes (longer
starting times, cutting out, etc.).
Fuel filler cap: this is spe-
cific to the vehicle type. If
you have to replace it, make
sure the new cap is of the
same type. Contact an approved
dealer.
Never place the cap near a source
of heat or flame.
Do not wash the filler area with a
high-pressure washer.

Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un -
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
Do not add any additives to the fuel,
you risk damaging the engine.
