The vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,
which helps to reduce the level of harmful
emissions in the exhaust gases.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct fuel
before starting the engine.
► With a conventional key, insert the key into
the filler cap, then turn the key to the left.
If the vehicle is equipped with a sliding
door on its left-hand side, do not open it
while the fuel filler flap is open. Otherwise,
there is a risk that the fuel filler flap and the
sliding door may be damaged and the person
filling up may be injured.

Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
