FUEL TANK

Getting to know your vehicle - 83
sufficient space in the fuel tank to allow
for expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the
fuel tank during filling. The valve
2
and
its surround must remain clean.
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 consists of a restrictor fitted with
a safety system which only allows a
nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Persistent smell of fuel
If you notice a persistent
fuel odour 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 authorised dealer.
The engine must be
switched off for refuelling
(and not just on standby
for vehicles equipped
with the Stop and Start function):
you must switch off the engine
completely (please refer to the
information on "Starting and
stopping the engine" in Section
2).
