DIESEL ENGINES
Vehicles with diesel e ngines are equipped with
a system to prevent the fuel tank from
emptying completely. When the fuel reaches a
minimum level, the system will activate a
reduced power mode (i.e. the engine will not
run properly). This will be followed by the
engine stopping in appr oximately 1.6 km (1
mile).
This feature prevents the fuel system from
running dry, which could cause damage to the
vehicle. If the gauge indicates low fuel or the
warning indicator illuminates, the fuel tank
should be refuelled as s oon as possible at the
next filling station, with at least 4 litres (0.9
gallons) of fuel.
If the system protection function has activated,
the vehicle must firstly be refuelled, then
restarted using the following procedure:
1. With the brake pedal pressed, press and
hold the engine START/STOP button and
crank the engine for five seconds.
2. Release the STAR T/STOP button.
3. With the brake pedal pressed, press and
release the START/STOP button to crank
the engine. The engine should start within
approximately five seconds.
Note: If the engine does not start, pause for ten
seconds with the ignition in convenience
mode, before repeating the procedure from the
beginning.
Do not crank the engine for longer than
30 seconds continuously.
FUEL FILLER FLAP
Take note of all warnings and
instruction given on the label affixed
to the inside of the filler flap.
The vehicle must be unl ocked using the Smart
Key, before the filler flap can be opened.
1. Press and release the rear of the flap (in the
area indicated) to unlatch.
2. Pull the flap open. The label on the inside of
the flap indicates the correct fuel for the
vehicle.
3. Twist the cap anticlockwise to undo.
4. Stow the cap on the lip provided on the top
of the hinge arm, as shown.
When replacing the cap, turn it clockwise until
the ratchet clicks. Failure to do so may cause
the Engine malfunction warning lamp to
illuminate. If the warning lamp illuminates,
ensure the cap is fitted properly.

To close the filler flap, push the flap until
latched closed.
Note: The filler flap will only be locked closed
when the vehicle is centrally locked.
FUEL FILLER
When refuelling ensure that all
windows, doors, and sunroof are fully
closed, particularly if young children
or animals are in the vehicle.
Do not attempt to fill the tank to its
maximum capacity. If the vehicle is to
be parked on a slope, in direct
sunlight or high am bient temperature,
expansion of the fuel could cause
spillage.
Check the fuel pump information
carefully, to ensure that you are putting
the correct fuel into the vehicle.
If the vehicle is filled with incorrect fuel,
it is essential that you seek qualified
assistance before you start the engine.
Fuel station pumps are equipped with
automatic cut-off sensing, to avoid fuel
spillage. Fill the tank until the filler nozzle
automatically cuts off the supply. Do not
attempt to fill the tank beyond this point.
Note: Filling station pumps used for diesel
commercial vehicles deliver fuel at a higher
rate than normal. The hi gher fill rate can cause
premature cut-off and ma y cause fuel spillage.
Therefore, it is recommended that only
standard light vehicle pumps are used.
DIESEL MISFUELLING PROTECTION
DEVICE
When the misfuelling device is
activated it may cause fuel to be
discharged from the filler neck.
If the narrow filler nozzl e fitted to pumps
delivering unleaded petrol is fully inserted into
the filler neck the misfue l protection device will
activate.
Note: The spout on some fuel cans and older
fuel pumps may trigger the misfuelling device.
When activated, the ye llow protection device
will be visible inside the filler neck. It will
prevent fuel flow into the tank. Before fuelling
can continue with the correct fuel the device
will need to be reset.
The reset tool is stored in the luggage
compartment clipped onto the battery retaining
bar.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures shown below have been calculated using a standard testing
procedure (the new EC test proc edure from Directive 99/100/EC), and produced in accordance with
The Passenger Car Fuel Cons umption (Amendment) Order 1996.
Under normal use, a vehicle's actu al fuel consumption figures may differ from those achieved
through the test procedure, de pending on driving technique, ro ad and traffic conditions,
environmental factors, ve hicle load and condition.
URBAN CYCLE
The urban test cycle is carried out from a cold start and cons ists of a series of accelerations,
decelerations and periods of stea dy speed driving and engine idling. The maximum speed attained
during the test is 50 km/h (30 mph) with an average speed of 19 km/h (12 mph).
EXTRA-URBAN CYCLE
The extra-urban test cycle is carried out immediatel y after the urban test. Approximately half of the
test comprises steady-speed driving, while the re mainder consists of a series of accelerations,
decelerations and engine idling . The maximum test speed is 120 km/h (75 mph) and the average
speed 63 km/h (39 mph). The test is carried out over a distance of 7 km (4.3 miles).
COMBINED
The combined figure is an average of the urban an d extra-urban test cycle results, which has been
weighted to take account of the differ ent distances covered during the two tests.
For additional information on fuel consumption figures and exhaust emissions, visit the Vehicle
Certification Agency (VCA) website at http://www.vcacarfueldata.org.uk/.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
Diesel vehicles equipped with a particle filter
have more efficient emission control. The
particles in the exhaust gases are collected in
the filter during normal driving.
When a DPF message is displayed, the filter
requires a regeneration cy cle to clean itself.
This requires the engine to have reached
normal operating temp erature. Regeneration
takes place automatically at an interval of
approximately 300-900 km (190-560 miles)
depending on driving c onditions. Regeneration
normally takes 10-20 minutes and is
automatically requested by the engine control
module if the vehicle is driven steadily at
vehicle speeds between 40mph to 70mph. It is
possible that the rege neration process will
occur at lower vehicle speeds, but the events
may take a little longer at a 50 km/h (30mph)
average speed.
DRIVING SHORT DISTANCES OR IN
COLD WEATHER
If the vehicle is fre quently driven short
distances or in cold weather conditions then
the engine may not re ach normal operating
temperature. This means that regeneration of
the diesel particle filter does not take place and
the filter is not efficiently cleaned. When the
filter reaches a condition when a filter
regeneration is approp riate and the current
drive style is not appropriate, a warning
triangle on the instrument panel illuminates,
and the message DPF Full. See manual is
displayed on the instrument panel. This is not
indicating a fault conditi on with the vehicle and
no dealership support should be required. Start
regeneration of the filter by driving the vehicle,
preferably on a main road or motorway. The
vehicle should then be driven for approximately
20 minutes or more. When regeneration is complete the warning
text is cleared automatically.
Note:
A small increase in fuel consumption
may be noticed temporarily during
regeneration.
ARDUOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS
When a vehicle is operated in severe or
arduous conditions, more frequent attention
must be paid to servic ing requirements. Refer
to your Service Portfolio for details or contact
your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice.
SAFETY IN THE GARAGE
If the vehicle has been driven
recently, do not touch exhaust and
cooling system co mponents until the
engine has cooled.
Never leave the engine running in an
unventilated area.
Do not work beneath the vehicle with a
jack as the only means of support.
Keep your hands and clothing away
from drive belts, pulleys and fans.
Some fans may continue to operate
after the engine has stopped.
Remove metal wrist bands and
jewellery, before working in the
engine compartment.
Do not touch electrical leads or
components while the engine is
running, or with the starter switch
turned on.
Do not allow tools or metal parts of the
vehicle to make contact with the
battery leads or terminals.

Check the engine oil weekly. If any
significant or sudden drop in oil level is
noted, seek qualified assistance.
If the message ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
LOW is displayed, stop the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so and seek
qualified assistance. Do not start the
engine until the cause has been
rectified.
Prior to checking the oil level ensure that the
vehicle is on level ground.
All except V6 petrol engines
Ensure that:
• The engine oil has reached working
temperature (oil is hot).
• The engine has been switched off for ten
minutes, as the syst em will not give an
accurate reading until the oil level has
stabilised.
The oil level can then be checked as follows:
1. Switch on the ignition (do not start the
engine).
2. Ensure Park (P ) is selected.
3. Press the trip button (on the end of the
lighting control stalk) repeatedly until the
oil can icon, along with the current oil level
status and topping-up ad vice is displayed
in the message centre, as follows. A.
Oil level at recommended level. No top-up
required.
B. Add 0.5 litres (0.9 pints) of oil.
C. Add 1 litre (1.8 pints) of oil.
D. Oil level above maximum for safe
operation. Do not drive the vehicle. Seek
qualified assistance.
E. Oil level below mi nimum for safe
operation. Add 1.5 litres (2.6 pints) of oil,
then recheck the level.
F. Oil level stabilising, oil level not available.
Wait 10 minutes, then recheck the oil level
display.
If this display is accompanied by the
warning message ENGINE OIL LEVEL

V6 petrol engines
Note: If it is necessary to check the oil level
when the engine is hot, switch off the engine
and let stand for five minutes to allow the oil to
drain into the sump. Do not start the engine.
1. Withdraw the dipstick and wipe the blade
clean with a lint free cloth.
2. Fully re-insert the dipstick and withdraw
again to check the oil level. Never allow the
oil level to fall below the lower mark or
notch on the dipstick.
As a general guide, if the level on the
dipstick:
•Is nearer to the upper mark or notch
than the lower, add no oil.
• Is nearer to the lower mark or notch
than the upper, add half a litre (one
pint) of oil.
• Is below the lower mark or notch, add
one litre (two pints) of oil and re-check
the level after a further five minutes.ENGINE OIL SPECIFICATION
Low quality or obsolete oils do not
provide the protection required by
modern, high perfor mance engines.
Failure to use an oil that meets the
required specification could cause
excessive engine wear, a build up of
sludge and deposit s and increased
pollution. It could also lead to engine
failure.
Your vehicle’s warranty may be
invalidated if damage is caused by the
use of unapproved engine oil.
Do not use oil additives of any type as
engine damage could occur. Use only
specified lubricants.

POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK
Power steering fluid is highly toxic.
Keep containers sealed and out of
reach of children. If accidental
consumption of fluid is suspected,
seek medical atte ntion immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
Power steering fluid is highly
inflammable. Do not allow power
steering fluid to come into contact
with naked flames or other sources of
ignition (e.g. a hot engine).
The engine must not be started if the
fluid level has dropped below the MIN
mark.
Seek qualified assistance immediately if
there is a noticeable drop in the fluid
level.
If fluid loss is slow, the reservoir may
be topped-up to the upper level mark to
enable the vehicle to be driven to a
repair facility for examination. However,
it is recommended that you seek
qualified assistance before driving the
vehicle.
Check and top-up the flui d with the vehicle on
level ground, with the e ngine switched off and
the system cold. Ensure that the steering wheel
is not turned after stopping the engine.
The level of fluid can be seen through the
translucent body of the reservoir.
The fluid level should be between the MIN and
the MAX marks.
TOPPING UP THE POWER STEERING
FLUID
It is imperative that the power steering
system does not become contaminated
in any way. Always use new fluid and
clean the area around the filler neck
both before removing the filler cap and
after topping up. Never return drained
fluid to the system.
Power steering fluid will damage
painted surfaces. Soak up any spillage
with an absorbent cloth immediately
and wash the area with a mixture of car
shampoo and water.
1. Clean the filler cap before removing to
prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.
2. Remove filler cap.
3. Using Mobil ATF320 PAS fluid, top-up the
reservoir until the fluid level is between the
MIN and MAX marks.
4. Replace filler cap.

BATTERY MONITORING SYSTEM
(BMS)
If excessive battery discharge is occurring
when the engine isn't running, the system will
shut down non-essential el ectrical systems to
protect battery power.
CONNECTING BOOSTER CABLES
Always wear appropriate eye
protection when working with
batteries.
Make sure both batteries are of the 12
volt type and that the booster cables
have insulated clamps and are
approved for use with 12 volt
batteries.
Do not disconnect the discharged
battery.
Do not connect a booster cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the battery.
Always connect to the recommended
earthing point.
Ensure the bodywork of the donor and
disabled vehicles do not touch.
If the vehicle is fitted with a dual
battery system, the larger of the two
batteries must be used when
connecting booster cables.
Note: Before connecting booster cables,
ensure that the battery connections on the
disabled vehicle are correct and that all
electrical equipment has been switched off.
1. Connect the positive booster cable to the
positive terminal on the donor vehicle's
battery.
2. Connect the other e nd of the positive
booster cable to the positive terminal on
the disabled vehicle's battery. If the vehicle is fitted with a dual
battery system, t
he larger of the
two batteries must be used when
connecting booster cables.
3. Connect the negative booster cable to the
recommended jump starting earth point of
the donor vehicle.
4. Connect the other e nd of the negative
booster cable to a suitable earth point on
the disabled vehicle. The earth point should
be at least 0.5 metres (20 inches) away
from the battery and as far as possible
from any fuel or brake pipes.
• Check that all cables are clear of any
moving components and that all four
connections are secure.
5. Start the engine of the donor vehicle, and
allow it to idle for a few minutes.
6. Start the engine of the disabled vehicle.
7. Allow both vehicles to idle for two minutes.
8. Switch off the donor vehicle.
DISCONNECTING THE BOOSTER
CABLES
To avoid serious injury use extreme
caution when removing the booster
cables as the engine will be running
on the previously disabled vehicle.
This means that you may be working
close to components which are
moving at high speed, carry high
voltage, or may be hot.
Note: Do not switch on any electrical
equipment until after th e cables have been
disconnected.
The engine should be running on the
previously disabled ve hicle and the engine
switched off on the donor vehicle. Disconnect
the booster cables in the exact reverse order of
that used for connection.

Wheel changing
194
Wheel changingWHEEL CHANGING SAFETY
Before raising the vehicl e, or changing a wheel
ensure that you read, and comply with the
following warnings.
Always find a safe place to stop, off
the highway and aw ay from traffic.
Ensure that the vehicle and jack are
both on firm level ground.
Apply the parking brake, and engage
Park (P).
Switch on the hazard warning lamps.
Ensure that the front wheels are in the
straight ahead position, and engage
the steering lock.
Disconnect trailer/ca ravan from the
vehicle.
Ensure that all passengers, and
animals, are out of the vehicle and in
a safe place away from the highway.
Place a warning triangle at a suitable
distance behind the v ehicle, facing
towards oncoming traffic.
When one rear wheel is lifted off the
ground the selection P (Park) position
will not prevent the vehicle from
moving and possibly slipping off the
jack as the park brake only operates
on the rear wheels. Use the wheel
chock when jacking the vehicle.
Always chock the wheel diagonally
opposite the wheel to be changed,
using the wheel chock supplied in the
tool kit. Chock the front of a front
wheel, or the rear of a rear wheel.
If jacking the vehicle on a slight slope
is unavoidable, place chocks on the
downhill side of the two opposite
wheels. An additional chock will be
needed. Never place anything between the jack
and the ground, or the jack and the
vehicle.
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle
unless the jack head is fully engaged
in the jacking point. Only jack the
vehicle using the approved jacking
points.
Remove the spare wheel prior to
jacking the vehicle, to avoid
destabilising the vehicle when raised.
Take care when lifting the spare
wheel, and removing the punctured
wheel. The wheels are heavy, and can
cause injuries if not handled correctly.
Do not start or run the engine while the
vehicle is support
ed only by a jack.
Do not get under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.
Never work or allow any person to
place any part of their body beneath
the vehicle with the jack as the only
means of support - use vehicle
support stands.
Take care when loosening the wheel
nuts. The wheel brace may slip off if
not properly attached, and the wheel
nuts may release suddenly. Either
unexpected movement may cause an
injury.
After use, the tool kit should be
returned to the under floor storage
area and correctly stowed.
Always ensure replacement tyres
have the correct rating and
specifications (e.g. load index, size,
speed rating) for your vehicle.
