Refill the Tank
The fuel filler is sealed by an internal
closing tab, which is opened by the
fuel nozzle of the service station when
refueling.
Only a nozzle of the suitable size can
open the closing tab.
• Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler.
NOTE:
Only with a correct size nozzle you can
refuel.
WARNING!
•
To avoid the risk of fire, do not
approach the filler with open flames or
cigarettes!
•
To avoid the risk of inhaling noxious
fumes, do not breathe close to the fuel
filler door, when opened.
•
Never have any smoking materials lit
in or near the vehicle when the fuel
filler door is open or the tank is being
filled.
•
Never add fuel when the engine
is running. This violates most
fire-prevention regulations and may
cause the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) to turn on (see "Warning
and Indicator Lights" in section
"Instruments and Controls").
• Fill the vehicle with fuel. Fuel tank
capacity is indicated in the "Refillings
Table" in section “Maintenance and
Care”. When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or
shuts off, the fuel tank is basically full: it
is possible to further ensure refueling
by enabling the fuel nozzle additional
fuel supply until twofold clicks. After
the two additional clicks, the amount of
fuel allowed by the system is very low,
we recommend therefore not to persist
further.
• Wait approximately 10 seconds before
removing the fuel nozzle in order to
ensure completed supply of residual
fuel and restrict the risk of fouling the
fuel filler door area.
• Remove the fuel nozzle.
• Close the fuel filler door.
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do
not "top off" the fuel tank after filling.
Emergency Refueling Funnel
A funnel is provided in the tool kit for
emergency refueling with a gas can
(see chapter “Tool Kit” in section “In a
Emergency”).
