FUEL TANK (1/3)
Useable fuel tank capacity:
60 litres approximately.
With the vehicle unlocked, to open the
compartment B, place your finger into
the recess C.
Valve A is integrated into the filler pipe.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer
to the information on “Filling with fuel”.
To close it, press on the fuel filler flap by
hand, as far as it will go.
Fuel grade
Use a high-grade fuel that complies
with the legislation in force in each
country and which must conform to
the specifications given on the label on
cover B. Please refer to the information
on “Engine specifications” in Section 6.
Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms with the information given on
the label inside cover B.
Petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) must conform
to the specifications on the label inside
fuel filler flap B. Refer to the information
on “Engine specifications” in Section 6.
Never press valve A with your fingers.
Do not wash the filler area with a high-pressure washer.

Vehicles 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 special end of the exten-
sion piece supplied into the socket in-
tegrated into the radiator grille and the
other end into a 220V socket for at least
6 hours before starting.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
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 additive to the fuel –
otherwise you risk damaging the
engine.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/3)
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres can increase fuel consumption.Advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow. –
In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob- jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind deflector and adjust it carefully.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.

3.11
AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially
when driving in town) when the air
conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with manual air
conditioning, switch off the system
when it is not required.
Advice for reducing
consumption and therefore
helping to preserve the
environment:
Drive with the air vents open and
the windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in
the sun, open the doors for a few
moments to let the hot air escape
before starting the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection
frequency.Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demist-
ing or air conditioning per-
formance. This may be caused
by the passenger compartment
filter cartridge becoming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced.
Check that the controls are set
correctly and that the fuses are
sound. Otherwise, switch off the
system.
Advice on use
In some situations, (air conditioning
off, air recirculation activated, venti-
lation speed at zero or low, etc.) you
may notice that condensation starts
to form on the windows and wind-
screen.
If there is condensation, use the
“Clear View” function to remove it,
then use the air conditioning in auto-
matic mode to stop it forming again.
If the condensation does not clear,
use the FAST programme.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Note
Presence of water under the ve-
hicle. After prolonged use of the air
conditioning system, it is normal for
water to be present under the vehi-
cle. This is caused by condensation.

Type of fuel
Octane Rating It is
essential that you use unleaded petrol
of the octane rating stated on the label
inside the fuel filler flap.
If not available, for a limited time only, use
unleaded fuel:
– with an octane rating of 91 for a label showing 95 or 98;
– with an octane rating of 87 for a label showing 91, 95 or 98. Diesel
The label located in the fuel filler flap indicates authorised fuels.
Spark plugs Only use the spark plugs specified for your
vehicle’s engine.
The type should be marked on a label af-
fixed inside the engine compartment. If it is
not then contact an approved Dealer.
Fitting spark plugs which are not to specifi-
cation may damage the engine.
