Additive quality
Use only additives which conform
to standard ISO 22241 and in accor-
dance with the label on the fuel filler
flap.
Average fuel consumption
Approximately 807 mpg
(3.5 l/1,000 km) depending on the vehi-
cle and the driving style.
The additive must not come
into contact with eyes or
skin. If it does, wash the af-
fected area with plenty of
cold water. If necessary, consult a
doctor.
ADDITIVE TANK (2/4)
Precautions for use
Always read the information on the ad-
ditive can.
Handle additives with care. They can
damage clothes, shoes, bodywork
components etc.
If the additive overflows, or contami-
nates any paintwork, clean the affected
area quickly with a damp cloth.
In extreme cold weather conditions
The vehicle is fitted with a system for
reheating the additive fluid that enables
you to drive in extreme cold weather
conditions.
Precautions when filling the tank
The additive fluid freezes below about
-10°C.
In this case, do not attempt filling when
the fluid is frozen.
It is therefore advisable to top up the
additive fluid or have it topped up by a
qualified professional as soon as the
 warning light on the instrument
panel first comes on.

top performance after approximately
3,600 miles (6,000 km).
During the running in period, do not ac-
celerate hard while the engine is still

Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone in your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or locking the
doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Never start your vehicle
while freewheeling on a
gradient. Risk of non-ac-
tivation of power-assisted
steering.
There is a risk of accidents.
Never switch off the igni-
tion before the vehicle has
stopped completely. Once
the engine has stopped, the
brake servo, power-assisted steer-
ing, etc. and the passive safety de-
vices such as air bags and preten-
sioners will no longer operate.

st or reverse gear)
for vehicles with a manual gearbox
or position P for vehicles with an au-
tomatic transmission.
1
Make sure that the hand-
brake is properly released
when driving (red indicator
