No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (electronic unit,
wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protec -
tive covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (unless undertaken by
qualified Network personnel).
Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle
so that the valve opens and then fully
insert it before beginning to fill the tank
(risk of splashback).
Keep the nozzle in this position through -
out the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made so as to leave sufficient
room for expansion.
petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck consists of a restrictor fitted with
a foolproof system which only allows
a nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).

persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle when traffic con-
ditions allow it and switch off the
ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from the traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) should match
the information given on the label A lo-
cated inside the fuel filler flap. Please
refer to the information on “Engine
specifications” in Section 6.
v ehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
It is essential to use unleaded petrol or
fuel containing a maximum of 85% eth-
anol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine. To avoid this problem, use un-
leaded petrol or, on equipped vehicles,
use the heater integrated in the engine:
connect the correct end of the exten -
sion piece supplied into the socket in -
tegrated into the radiator grille and the
other end into a 220 v socket for at
least 6 hours before starting.
NB: you may notice an increase in fuel
consumption with this type of fuel.

Special features of diesel versions
Vehicles with particle filters
Depending on the vehicle, a 1 warning
light lights up on the instrument panel to
show that there is a risk of the particle
filter becoming clogged.
To clean the particle filter, in the
60 miles (100 km) following the appear -
ance of the message, drive at an aver-
age speed of at least 24 mph (40 km/h)
where traffic conditions and the
speed limit will allow until the warning
light goes out.
You may need to restart the operation if
the vehicle has to stop before the warn-
ing light goes out.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with an injec -
tion pump with an electronic regulator
which prevents overrevving of the
engine irrespective of the gear en -
gaged.
Running out of fuel
You may start the engine normally after
refilling the fuel tank even if you have
completely run out of fuel , provided
that the battery is fully charged.
However, if the engine does not start
after a few seconds and several at -
tempts, please refer to the information
on the “Fuel tank” in Section 1.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid faults in icy weather:
– make sure that the battery is always
fully charged;
– always keep the diesel tank rela -
tively full to prevent water vapour
condensing in it and accumulating at
the bottom of the tank.

As a guide, this type of cleaning should
take up to 20 minutes.
If the
© warning light comes on,
contact an approved Dealer as soon as
possible.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
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 the hot exhaust system.
