Practical information
At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Compatibility of fuels
Travelling abroad
Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734
and EN16709 standards and containing up to
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even
occasionally, imposes special maintenance
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".
Refuelling
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s
engine.
At least 8 litres of fuel must be added, in order to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise caused
by an inrush of air. This is entirely normal and
results from the sealing of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
► Always switch off the engine.
► Unlock the vehicle using the Keyless Entry

(e.g. pure or diluted vegetable or animal
oils, domestic fuel) is strictly prohibited - risk
of damaging the engine and fuel system!
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 69 litres.
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.

display of a message and an audible signal.
When it first comes on, about 8 litres of fuel
remain.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could prevent the engine from operating
correctly. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50 % full.
► Open the fuel filler flap.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.
A small arrow by the warning lamp
indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler flap is located on.
