FUEL TANK
Capacity of the fuel tank: 50 litres ap- proximately.
Depending on the vehicle, the cap
1 may be unlocked with the ignition key.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer to the information on “Filling with fuel”.
There is a cap holder on the fuel filler flap for holding the cap when the tank is being filled.
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.
Fuel grade
Use a high grade fuel that complies with the standards currently in force in each country.
Petrol version
It is essential to use unleaded petrol. The octane rating (RON) must conform with the specifications given on the
label inside the fuel filler flap A.
Refer to the “Engine specifications” table in section 6.
v ehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
Always use unleaded petrol or fuel containing a maximum of 85 percent ethanol (E85).
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.).

A
Do not mix even small amounts of petrol (unleaded or E85) with diesel.Do not use ethanol based fuel or diesel containing more than 10% bio additives if your vehicle is not adapted to these fuels.

Diesel vehicle
When the vehicle is adapted (indicated
on the label A), you may use diesel containing a maximum of 30% bio ad- ditives (fatty acid methyl ester).Otherwise, use diesel containing a maximum of 10% bio additives.Special note: do not use fuel with more than 10% bio additives if the tempera- ture is below 0°C.
Filling with fuel
Petrol version
Only use unleaded petrol.
Using leaded petrol will damage the antipollution system and may lead to a loss of warranty.
To ensure the fuel tank is not filled with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler neck contains a restrictor fitted with a valve which only allows the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be used (at the pump).
– Insert the nozzle as far as it will go so that the valve is opened.
– Keep the nozzle in this position throughout the entire filling opera- tion.
Petrol and diesel versions
When the pump cuts out automatically at the end of the filling procedure, a maximum of two further filling attempts may be made, as there must be suffi- cient space in the fuel tank to allow for expansion.
Persistent smell of fuel
If you notice a persistent smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traffic
conditions allow and switch off the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning lights
and ask your passengers to leave the vehicle and stay clear of the traf- fic;
– refrain from working on or restart
-
ing the vehicle before it has been inspected by qualified staff from the approved dealer network.
No modifications what- soever are permitted on any part of the fuel supply system (computers, wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protection
covers, etc.) as this may be danger- ous (such work must be undertaken by qualified Network personnel).

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit up,
– using leaded petrol,
– using oil or fuel additives which are
not approved by the manufacturer.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition, running out of fuel or
spark plug disconnected resulting in engine misfiring and hesitation when driving,
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to overheat, reducing its efficiency which may irreparably damage it and cause heat damage to the vehicle.
If you notice any of the above operat- ing faults, have the necessary repairs carried out as soon as possible by your approved dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regularly taking your vehicle to your approved dealer at the intervals specified in your Maintenance Service Booklet.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con- verter, do not keep trying to start the engine (using the start button, or by pushing or towing the vehicle) without having identified and corrected the starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not continue to try and start the engine, but contact an approved dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations where combustible sub- stances or materials such as grass or leaves can come into contact with a hot exhaust system.
