The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives
which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition system, running out of
fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
– loss of power,

If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance document.
Starting problems

verter, do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
keep trying to start the engine, but con-
tact an approved Dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.

After between approximately 5 and
20 minutes, the warning light should go
out.
Note: The indicator light may go out
after 20 minutes when the driving con-
ditions needed to clean the filter are not
completely met.
If the vehicle is stopped before the
warning light disappears you will have
to restart the process from the begin-
ning.
If the filter becomes saturated, the

by the “ENGINE FAILURE HAZARD”

quires you to stop immedi-
ately, for your own safety,
as soon as traffic conditions
allow. Switch off the engine and do
not restart it. Contact an approved
Dealer.
