Practical information
Fuel tank
The capacity of the fuel tank is approximately 35 litres.
Low fuel level
Refuelling
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal.
Refuelling must only be done with the engine
stopped and the ignition switched off (ignition
switch in the "LOCK" position or "OFF" mode).
The message "LO FUEL" is displayed in place
of the range.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
You have approximately 5 litres remaining.
In certain driving conditions and depending on
the engine, the distance which can be travelled
with the fuel remaining may be less than
30 miles (50 km).
A label on the inside of the flap reminds you
which type of fuel to use.
There may be an inrush of air when removing
the filler cap. This vacuum is perfectly normal
and results from the sealing of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
If you run out of fuel, the emission
control system warning lamp may come
on in the instrument panel. It will go off
automatically after the engine has been
started a few times.
