SEAT BELTS

Always wear your seat belt when travelling in your vehicle. You must also comply with the legislation of the particular country you are in.

Make sure that the rear bench seat is locked in position correctly so that the rear seat belts will operate efficiently. Refer to the information on the “Rear bench seat: functions” in Section 3.

Incorrectly adjusted or twisted seat belts may cause injuries in the event of an accident.

The seatbelt is for the use of one person only, whether adult or child. Even pregnant women should wear a seat belt. In this case, ensure that the lap belt is not exerting too much pressure on the abdomen, but do not allow any slack.

Before starting, adjust your driving position and then have each occupant adjust their seat belt to ensure optimum protection.

Adjusting your driving position (depending on the vehicle)

• Sit well back in your seat (having removed your coat or jacket etc.). This is essential to ensure your back is positioned correctly;
  Adjust the distance between the seat and the pedals. Your seat should be as far back as possible while still allowing you to depress the clutch pedal fully. The seatback should be adjusted so that your arms are slightly bent when you hold the steering wheel;
  Adjust the position of your head-rest. For the maximum safety, your head must be as close as possible to the headrest;
  Adjust the height of the seat. This adjustment allows you to select the seat position which offers you the best possible view;
  Adjust the position of the steering wheel.

Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the seatback.
Shoulder strap 1 should be as close as possible to the base of the neck but not on it.
Lap belt 2 must be worn flat over the thighs and against the pelvis. The seat belt must be worn as close to the body as possible. i.e.: avoid wearing heavy clothing or keeping bulky objects under the belts, etc.

To fasten
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly and ensure that buckle 4 locks into catch 6 (check that it is locked by pulling on buckle 4). If it jams, allow it to return before attempting to unwind it again. If your seat belt is completely jammed, pull slowly, but firmly so that just over 3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an approved dealer.

Adjusting the front seat belt height
(depending on the vehicle)
Move button 7 to select the position you require so that chest strap 3 is worn as described above.
Make sure that the seat belt is locked in position correctly after you have adjusted it.

Seat belt reminder light
Depending on the vehicle, it comes on when the engine is started and if the driver’s and/or passenger’s seat belt is not fastened. When the vehicle is being driven, it comes on and a beep sounds for approximately 2 minutes until the driver’s seat belt is fastened.

Note: an object placed on the passenger seat base may activate the warning light in some cases.

Unlocking
Press button 5 on catch 6; the seat belt is wound up by the inertia reel. Guide the buckle to facilitate this manoeuvre.

Rear side seat belts
Slowly unwind belt 8 and click buckle 9 into red catch 10.

Rear center seat belt A (depending on vehicle)
Remove buckle 15 from its housing 16.
Slowly unwind the belt 13 and click the buckle 15 into the black catch 14.
Fasten the sliding buckle 11 into the red catch 12.
Insert buckle 15 into housing 16 when-ever the seat belt is not in use.

Check that the rear seat belts are positioned and operating correctly each time the rear seats are moved.

Rear lap belt with manual adjustment 17
The strap should be worn flat over your thighs and against your pelvis.
The seat belt should be worn so that it is as close as possible to your body, i.e.: avoid wearing heavy clothing or keeping bulky objects under the belts, etc.
To tighten, pull on free section 18 of the belt.
To loosen, tilt adjusting buckle 20 perpendicular to the seat belt, press the buckle on the ring side while pulling lap belt 19.
Check that the rear seat belts are positioned and operating correctly each time the rear seats are moved.

The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.

• No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally fitted restraint system: seat belts, seats and their mountings. For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorized dealer.
  Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause injury in the event of an accident.
• Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.
  Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or child on your lap with your seat belt around them.
  The belt should never be twisted.
  Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if necessary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as they show any signs of wear.
  Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.
  When refitting the rear bench seat, take care that the seat belts are correctly positioned so that they can be used properly.
  Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch as they could prevent it from being properly secured.
  Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or objects).

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS

Depending on the vehicle, they are composed of:

• Seat belt pretensioners;
  Chest-level load limiters;
  Air bags for the driver and front passenger.

These systems are designed to act in-dependently or together when the vehicle is subjected to a frontal impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the system can trigger:

• Seat belt locking;
  The seat belt pretensioner to hold the occupant in the seat, and the force limiter;
  The front air bag.

.

Pretensioner
With the ignition switched on, if the vehicle is subject to a significant frontal impact the system may, depending on the severity of the impact, trigger a piston which instantly retracts the seat belt.
The pretensioner holds the seat belt against the body, holding the occupant more securely against the seat, thus increasing the seat belt’s efficiency.

Load limiter
Above a certain level of impact force, this mechanism is used to limit the force of the belt against the body so that it is at an acceptable level.

• Have the entire restraint system checked following an accident.
  No operation whatsoever is permitted on any part of the system (air bags, electronic control units, wiring) and the system components must not be reused on any other vehicle, even if identical.
• To avoid premature triggering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified Network personnel are authorized to work on the methods of restraint in addition to the front seat belt.
  The electric trigger system may only be tested by a specially trained technician using special equipment.
  When the vehicle is scrapped, contact an approved dealer for disposal of the pretensioner and airbag gas generators.

Driver’s and passenger air bags
These may be fitted to the front seats on the driver and passenger side (location A).

Each air bag system consists of:

• An air bag and gas generator fitted on the steering wheel for the driver and in the dashboard for the front passenger;
  An electronic unit for system monitoring which controls the gas generator electrical trigger system;
  A special warning light .
  Remote sensors.

Operation
This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the air bag(s) inflate(s) rapidly, cushioning the impact of the driver’s head and chest against the steering wheel and the front passenger’s head against the dashboard. The air bag then deflates immediately so that the passengers are not impeded in any way when they get out of the vehicle.

The air bag system uses pyrotechnic principles. This explains why, when the air bag inflates, it will generate heat, produce smoke (this does not mean that a fire is about to start) and make a noise upon detonation. An air bag may inflate immediately, causing some minor, superficial grazing to the skin or other discomfort.

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is deployed and also to pre-vent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag deploys.

Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag

• Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
  Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
  Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
• You must not remove the steering wheel (such work must only be performed by trained personnel from our Network).
• When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to inflate properly and be fully effective.

Warnings concerning the passenger air bag

• Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard in the proximity of the air bag housing.
  Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
  The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In general, all parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head etc.).
  You should reactivate the passenger air bag as soon as you remove the child seat to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an impact.

A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE SEAT BELT, I.E. AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.
(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag” in Section 1)

SIDE PROTECTION DEVICES

Side air bags
These air bags may be fitted to the front seats and are deployed at the sides of the seats (door side) to protect the occupants in the event of a severe side impact.

Warnings concerning the side air bag

• Fitting seat covers: seats equipped with an air bag require covers specifically designed for your vehicle. Contact an approved dealer to find out if such covers are available from our Network. The use of any covers other than those designed for your vehicle (including those designed for an-other vehicle) may affect the operation of the air bags and reduce your protection.
• Do not place any accessories, objects, or even pets, between the seatback, the door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with objects such as clothes or accessories. This may prevent the air bag from operating correctly or cause injury when the air bag is deployed.
  No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat or internal fittings, except by qualified personnel from our Network.

ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the airbags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear the seat belt at all times. If seat belts are not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always possible with airbags.
If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pre-tensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Impacts to the underside of the vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these systems.

• No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the driver or passenger air bag system (air bag, electronic unit, wiring, etc.), except by qualified personnel from our Network.
  To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental triggering of the system which could cause injury, only qualified personnel from our Network may work on the air bag system.
  As a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
  When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
  When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal of the gas generator(s).

Operating faults
This warning light will light up on the instrument panel when the ignition is switched on and then go out after a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition is switched on, or if it lights up when the engine is running, it indicates a fault in the system. In this case, fitting a child seat in the front passenger seat is PROHIBITED.
Contact an approved dealer as soon as possible. Your protection will be reduced until this fault is rectified.

CHILD SAFETY: General Information

Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly seated and strapped in for all journeys. The children being carried in your vehicle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children are at risk of specific injuries as their muscles and bones have not yet finished growing. The seat belt alone would not provide suitable protection. Use an approved child seat and ensure you use it correctly.

To prevent the doors being opened, use the childproof locks (refer to the information on “Locking/unlocking the doors” in Section 1).

A collision at 30 mph (50 km/h) is the same as falling a distance of 10 metres. Transporting a child without a restraint is the equivalent of allowing him or her to play on a fourth floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your arms. In the event of an accident, you will not be able to keep hold of the child, even if you yourself are wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, replace the child seat and have the seat belts and ISOFIX fittings checked.

Never leave a child unattended in the vehicle.
Check that your child is always strapped in and that the belt or safety harness used is correctly set and adjusted. Avoid wearing bulky clothing which could cause the belts to slacken.
Never let your child put their head or arms out of the window.
Check that the child is in the correct position for the entire journey, especially if asleep.

Using a child seat
The level of protection offered by the child seat depends on its ability to re-strain your child and on its installation. Incorrect installation compromises the protection it offers the child in the event of harsh braking or an impact.
Before purchasing a child seat, check that it complies with the regulations for the country you are in and that it can be fitted in your vehicle. Consult an approved dealer to find out which seats are recommended for your vehicle.
Before fitting a child seat, read the manual and respect its instructions. If you experience any difficulties during installation, contact the manufacturer of the equipment. Keep the instructions with the seat.
Set a good example by always fastening your seat belt and teaching your child:

• To strap themselves in correctly;
  To always get in and out of the car at the kerb, away from busy traffic.

Do not use a second-hand child seat or one without an instruction manual.
Check that there are no objects in the vicinity of the child seat which could impede its operation.

Never leave a child unattended in the vehicle.
Check that your child is always strapped in and that the belt or safety harness used is correctly set and adjusted. Avoid wearing bulky clothing which could cause the belts to slacken.
Never let your child put their head or arms out of the window.
Check that the child is in the correct position for the entire journey, especially if asleep.

CHILD SAFETY: Choosing a Child Seat

Rear-facing child seats
A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier than that of an adult and its neck is very fragile. Transport the child in this position for as long as possible (until the age of 2 at the very least). It supports the head and neck. Choose a bucket type seat for better side protection and replace it as soon as the child’s head extends past the seat shell.

Forward-facing child seats
The child’s head and abdomen need to be protected as a priority. A forward-facing child seat which is firmly attached to the vehicle will reduce the risk of impact to the head. Ensure your child travels in a forward-facing seat with a harness for as long as their size permits. Choose a wrap-around seat for better side protection.

 

Forward-facing child seats
The child’s head and abdomen need to be protected as a priority. A forward-facing child seat which is firmly attached to the vehicle will reduce the risk of impact to the head. Ensure your child travels in a forward-facing seat with a harness for as long as their size permits. Choose a wrap-around seat for better side protection.

Booster cushions
From 15 kg or 4 years, the child can travel using a booster seat, which will enable the seat belt to be adapted to suit his/her size and shape. The booster seat cushion must be fitted with guides to position the seat belt on the child’s thighs rather than the stomach. It is recommended that you use a seat-back fitted with a belt strap guide which can be adjusted in terms of height to position the seat belt in the center of the shoulder. It should never rest on the neck or over the arm. Choose a bucket type seat for better side protection.

CHILD SAFETY: Mounting a Child Seat

Attachment via the seat belt

The seat belt must be adjusted to ensure that it is effective in the event of harsh braking or an impact.
Ensure that the strap paths indicated by the child seat manufacturer are respected.
Always check that the seat belt is correctly fastened by pulling it up, then pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the child seat.
Check that the seat is correctly held by moving it from side to side and back to front: the seat should remain firmly fixed.
Check that the child seat has not been installed at an angle and that it is not resting against a window.

Do not use the child seat if it may unfasten the seat belt restraining it: the base of the seat must not rest on the buckle and/or catch of the seat belt.

The seat belt must never be twisted or the tension relieved. Never pass the shoulder strap under the  arm or behind the back.
Check that the seat belt has not been damaged by sharp edges.
If the seat belt does not operate normally, it will not protect the child. Consult an approved dealer. Do not use this seat until the seat belt has been repaired.

No modifications may be made to the component parts of the restraint system
(seat belts, ISOFIX, seats and their mountings) originally fitted.

Attachment with the ISOFIX system
Authorized ISOFIX child seats are approved in accordance with regulation ECE-R44 in one of the three following cases:

• ISOFIX universal 3-point forward-facing seat;
  ISOFIX semi-universal 2-point seat;
  specific.

For the latter two, check that your child seat can be installed by consulting the list of compatible vehicles.
Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.
The ISOFIX system is composed of 2 rings for each rear side seat.

Before using an ISOFIX child seat that you purchased for another vehicle, check that its installation is authorized. Consult the list of vehicles which can be fitted with the seat from the equipment manufacturer

 

The rings ISOFIX 1 are located be-tween the seatback and the seat base and are clearly visible.
To ensure your child seat can be easily fitted and locked on rings 1, use access guides 2 on the child seat.

The third ring of each side seat is used to attach the upper strap on some child seats.
Pass the belt between the seatback and the rear parcel shelf (to remove the parcel shelf: refer to Section 3 “Parcel shelf”).

The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child seats with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a different type of child seat, seat belt or other objects to these anchorage points.
Check that nothing is obstructing the anchorage points.

If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX anchorage points checked and replace your child seat.

Attach the hook on the belt to one of the rings 3 (4×2 version) or 4 (4×4 version).
Pull the belt so that the back of the child seat comes into contact with the back of the vehicle seat.

It is essential to use the boot anchorage points 3 or 4 to attach the upper belt of the child seat.

It is forbidden to use other mounting points to attach this strap.

CHILD SAFETY: Fitting a Child Seat

Some seats are not suitable for fitting child seats. The diagram on the following page shows you how to attach a child seat.
The types of child seats indicated may not be available. Before using a different child seat, check with the manufacturer that it can be fitted.

Fit the child seat in a rear seat wherever possible.
Check that when installing the child seat in the vehicle it is not at risk of coming loose from its base.
If you have to remove the headrest, check that it is correctly stored so that it does not come loose under harsh braking or impact.
Always attach the child seat to the vehicle even if it is not in use so that it does not come loose under harsh braking or impact.

In the front seat
The laws concerning children travel-ling in the front passenger seat differ in every country. Consult the legislation in force and follow the indications on the diagram on the following page.
Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if authorized):

• Deactivate the front passenger air bag;
• lower the seat belt as far as possible;
  Move the seat as far back as possible;
  Gently tilt the seatback away from vertical (approximately 25°).

Do not change these settings after the child seat is installed.

RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY:
before fitting a child seat in this seat, check that the air bag has been deactivated (refer to the in-formation on “Deactivating the front passenger air bag” in Section 1).

In the rear side seat

A carrycot can be installed across the vehicle and will take up at least two seats. Position the child with his or her feet nearest the door.
Before installing a child seat in the ISOFIX anchoring points on a rear side seat, check that the seat belt buckles are not placed between the two ISOFIX anchorage points in this seat. If necessary, move the buckle for the seat concerned towards the centre of the vehicle.
Move the front seat as far forward as possible to install a rear-facing child seat, then move back the seat in front as far as it will go, although without allowing it to come into contact with the child seat.

For the safety of the child in the forward-facing seat, do not move the seat in front back past the middle of the runner, do not tilt the seatback too far (maximum of 25°) and raise the seat as much as possible.
Check that the forward-facing child seat is resting against the back of the vehicle seat and that the headrest of the vehicle is not obstructing its use.

Make sure that the child seat or the child’s feet do not prevent the front seat from locking correctly.

CHILD SAFETY: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag

Deactivating the front passenger air bag (depending on vehicle)
To fit a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat, you must deactivate the front passenger air bag if your vehicle is fitted with air bag deactivation.

To deactivate the passenger airbag, with the ignition off, press and turn button 1 to the OFF position.
With the ignition switched back on, it is essential to check that warning light 2,], is lit up on the instrument panel. This warning light remains continuously lit to let you know that you can fit a child seat.

The passenger air bag must be activated or deactivated with the ignition off.
If handled when the ignition is on, the warning light   comes on.
Switch the ignition off then on again to reset the air bag in accordance with the lock position.

DANGER
Since front passenger airbag triggering and the position of a rear-facing child seat are incompatible, NEVER use a restraining device for rear-facing children on a seat with an ACTIVATED AIRBAG in front of it. This provides a risk of DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD.

The markings on the dashboard and labels A on each side of passenger sun blind 3 (example: labels shown above) remind you of these instructions.

Activation of the front passenger air bag (depending on vehicle)
You should reactivate the airbag as soon as you remove the child seat from the front passenger seat to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an impact.
To reactivate the airbag: with the vehicle at a standstill and with the ignition switched off, press and turn button 1 to the ON position.
With the ignition switched on, it is essential to check that warning light 2,, is off.

Operating faults
It is forbidden to fit a rear-facing child seat to the front passenger seat if the air bag activation/deactivation system is faulty.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in that seat is not recommended.
Contact your approved dealer as soon as possible.

The passenger air bag must be activated or deactivated with the ignition off.
If handled when the ignition is on, the warning light comes on.
Switch the ignition off then on again to reset the air bag in accordance with the lock position.

Interpreting some of the values displayed after resetting
The values showing average fuel consumption, range and average speed will become more stable and re-liable the further you travel after pressing the reset button.
For the first few miles after pressing the reset key you will notice that the range increases as you travel. This range takes into account the average fuel consumption since the last time the reset button was pressed. Therefore, the fuel consumption may decrease when:

• The vehicle stops accelerating,
  The engine reaches its operating temperature (engine cold when reset button pressed),
  When driving from a built-up area onto the open road.
  Therefore, if the average fuel consumption decreases, the range will increase.
• You may also notice that the average fuel consumption increases when the vehicle is stationary and the engine idling.
  This is normal, since the computer takes account of fuel used during idling.

Warning light Ê on the instrument panel comes on accompanied by the message “— miles”. The distance appears on the display for approximately 8 seconds when the ignition is switched on as soon as the distance is less than or equal to 1000 miles. The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
Note: depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies according to the driving style (frequent driving at low speed, door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idle speed, towing a trailer etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change can therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distance travelled. The oil change intervals are independent of the vehicle’s maintenance schedule: please refer to your vehicle’s maintenance document. Resetting: to reset the mileage before an oil change, press and hold the display reset button for approximately 10 seconds until the display shows the range permanently.

For each headlight, using a screw-driver, turn the screw 1 by a quarter turn towards the – symbol to lower the beams.
Return to the starting point once your trip is over: turn the screw 1 by a quarter turn towards the + symbol to raise the beams.

When driving on the left in a left-hand drive vehicle (or vice versa), you must adjust your lights temporarily during your stay.

WINDSCREEN WASH, WIPE

Windscreen wiper

With the ignition on, move stalk 1 around the steering wheel:

•  Park.
•  Intermittent wiping.
• Normal wiping speed.
• Fast wiping speed.

Windscreen wiper
With the ignition on, pull stalk 1 towards you.
A brief pull will trigger a single sweep of the wipers, in addition to the wind-screen washer.
A longer pull will trigger three sweeps of the wipers, in addition to the wind-screen washer.

When working in the engine compartment, ensure that the windscreen wiper stalk is in position A (park). Risk of injury.

In frosty weather, make sure that the wiper blades are not stuck by ice (risk of motor overheating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the blades. They should be replaced as soon as they become less efficient. This will occur approximately once a year. Clean your windscreen regularly.
If you switch off the ignition before switching off the windscreen wiper (position A) the blades will stop at random on the windscreen.
After switching the ignition back on, simply move stalk 1 to position A to place them in the park position.

Before touching the wind-screen (washing the vehicle, de-icing, cleaning the windscreen, etc.) move stalk 1 to position A (park). Risk of injury and/or damage.

Rear screen wiper
With the ignition on, turn the end of stalk 1 to align the symbol with mark 2.

Rear screen washer
With the ignition on, turn the end of stalk 1 to align the symbol with mark 2.
When the stalk is released, it returns to the rear wipe position.

Before using the rear wiper, check that no object is obstructing the travel of the blade.
In frosty weather, make sure that the wiper blades are not stuck by ice (to avoid the risk of the motor over-heating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the blades. They should be replaced as soon as they become less efficient. This will occur approximately once a year. Clean your windscreen regularly.

Before touching the wind-screen (washing the vehicle, de-icing, cleaning the windscreen, etc.) move stalk 1 to position A (park). Risk of injury and/or damage.

FUEL TANK

Petrol and diesel versions
Usable capacity of the fuel tank: 50 litres approximately.
Depending on the vehicle, to open the fuel filler flap A, place your finger in opening B and pull.
To close, push the fuel filler flap A by hand as far as it will go. Depending on the vehicle, the cap 1 is unlocked using the ignition key. If not, it will be connected to the vehicle by a strip of plastic. For details on filling the fuel tank, please refer to the information on “Filling with fuel”.

There is a cap holder 3 on the fuel filler flap for holding the cap when the tank is being filled.
Depending on the vehicle, lift lever 2 to unlock the fuel filler flap A. Open it, then unscrew fuel filler cap 1.

Fuel filler cap: this is specific to the vehicle type. If you have to replace it, make sure the new cap is of the same type. Contact an approved dealer.
Never place the cap near a source of heat or flame.
Do not wash the filler area with a high-pressure washer.

Fuel grade
Always use a high-grade fuel that complies with the legislation in force in each country. It must conform to the specifications given on label C inside the fuel filler flap.
Refer to the “Engine specifications” table in Section 6.

Petrol version
It is essential to use unleaded petrol. The octane rating (RON) must conform to the specifications given on the label inside fuel filler flap C.

Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that conforms to the specifications given on the label inside fuel flap C.

Vehicles running on ethanol-based fuel
Always use unleaded petrol or fuel containing a maximum of 85 percent ethanol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very difficult or even impossible to start the engine.
Note: you may notice an increase in fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
When the fuel is changed the engine must adjust, which may cause minor in-conveniences for a few minutes (longer starting times, cutting out, etc.).

Do not mix even small amounts of petrol (un-leaded or E85) with diesel. Do not use ethanol-based fuel if your vehicle is not compatible with this fuel.
Do not add additive to the fuel otherwise you risk damaging the engine.

Filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle to open the valve and insert it fully before turning it on to fill the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position throughout the entire filling operation. When the pump cuts out automatically at the end of the filling procedure, a maximum of two further filling attempts may be made, as there must be sufficient space in the fuel tank to allow for expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel tank during filling. The valve and its sur-round must remain clean.

Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the antipollution system and may lead to a loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler neck contains a restrictor fitted with a foolproof system which only allows the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be used (at the pump).

Persistent fuel odor
If you notice a persistent smell of fuel you should:

• Stop the vehicle when traffic conditions allow it and switch off the ignition;
  Switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers to leave the vehicle and stay clear of the traffic;
  Contact an authorized dealer.
• LPG versions
  Useful capacity of fuel tank: approx. 32 litres.
• Filling up with LPG
  Engage the handbrake, stop the engine, switch off the ignition and switch off the lights.
  Always respect the safety instructions given at filling stations.
  When filling the tank, add the desired quantity of LPG.
  When the pump stops delivering LPG, or when the pump flow reduces significantly, the maximum LPG level has been reached.
  At this point, do not attempt to carry on filling.
• 
  Filling stations without self-service
  If service station staff fill your vehicle with LPG, give them a filling adapter 4, as supplied in a pouch in the glovebox.

If you exceed the LPG tank capacity when filling completely, please go to an accredited garage or your authorized dealer to check the automatic filler device.

IMPORTANT:
The adapter 4 depends on the country in which the vehicle is sold.
Before travelling to another country, please consult an authorized dealer.

Filling stations with self-service
We recommend that you wear gloves when handling the LPG pistol.
Open your vehicle’s tank cover and unscrew the cap 5 from the end piece of the LPG filler 6.
Carefully follow the information explaining how to refill using the LPG distributor.

When the pump finishes or if it has difficulties operating, this means that the maximum tank fill level (80%) has been reached.
The filling will stop as soon as you re-lease the button. Release the stop lever (a small amount of gas may be re-leased), lift the pistol and place it on the distributor.
Replace the cap 5 to avoid any water or foreign bodies from entering the system.

Priming bulb (diesel version)
After a breakdown caused by completely running out of fuel, the system must be reprimed before the engine is restarted:
Note: the bulb is always located on the right-hand side of the engine compartment.
Operate the priming bulb 8 until the fuel flows through the hose 7.
If the engine does not start after several attempts, contact an approved dealer.

No modifications what-soever are permitted on any part of the fuel supply system (computers, wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protection covers, etc.) as this may be dangerous (such work must be under-taken by qualified Network personnel).

The engine may be hot when working in close proximity. In addition, the engine cooling fan may come on at any moment.
