WARNING
NOTE
The retaining strap of the fuel tank cap may be‐
come trapped and crushed when turning the
cap to close it. It will then not be possible to
close the cap properly. Fuel or fuel vapours can
leak out. There is a risk of injury or material
damage. Make sure that the retaining strap
does not get trapped and crushed when clos‐
ing the cap.
Fuels are poisonous and aggressive substan‐
ces. Overfilling the fuel tank can damage the
fuel system. If fuel comes into contact with
paintwork, it can damage it. The environment is
polluted. There is a risk of material damage.
Avoid overfilling.
1. Fit the fuel filler cap and turn clockwise until it
is clearly heard to click into place.
2. Press on the fuel tank filler flap until it en‐
gages.
Emergency release
In certain situations, it may be necessary to un‐
lock the fuel tank filler flap manually, for example
if there is an electrical fault.
Have the fuel tank filler flap unlocked by a Serv‐
ice Partner of the manufacturer or another quali‐
fied Service Partner or a specialist workshop.
Notes when refuelling
General
When refuelling, insert the filler nozzle fully into
the filler neck. Lifting the filler nozzle during refu‐
elling results in the following:
▷ The supply of fuel is stopped too soon.
▷ Fuel vapour recovery is less effective.
The fuel tank is full when the filler nozzle cuts out
for the first time.
Please comply with the safety regulations dis‐
played at filling stations.
