come trapped and crushed when turning the
cap to close it. It will then not be possible to
close the cap properly. Fuel or fuel vapours can
leak out. There is a risk of injury or material

is clearly heard to click into place.

ing any noise.

4. Carefully open the fuel tank cap. An overpres‐
sure can be formed in the fuel tank due to

the filler nozzle cuts out frequently.

ice Partner of the manufacturer or another quali‐
fied Service Partner or a specialist workshop.
