The Diesel fuel system operates under
very high pressure.
All work on this circuit must be carried out only
by a dealer or a qualified workshop.
Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in
accordance with the manufacturer's service
schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The fluids must comply with the
manufacturer's requirements and with
the vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even with
the ignition off).
* Depending on engine.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch with care (risk of
burns), using the protected area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
Cooling of the engine when stopped
The engine cooling fan may start after the
engine has been switched off.
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the fan!
Opening
► From inside: pull the control lever, located on
the left below the dashboard, towards you.
► From the outside: lift the safety catch and
raise the bonnet.
A bonnet strut opens the bonnet and holds it
open.
Closing
► Lower the bonnet and release it near the end
of its travel.
► Check the locking.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is
recommended that exposure to water (rain,
washing, etc.) be limited.
