WARNING
To avoid any sudden discharge of fuel
caused by excessive air pressure, the cap is
designed to allow the fuel tank to vent
during the first half turn. DO NOT fully
remove the cap until pressure has been
released. Place the cap in the retaining
bracket on the rear of the flap whilst
refuelling. Unless absolutely necessary, the
fuel filler cap should not be removed unless
the vehicle is standing on level ground. DO
NOT OVERFILL!
Fuel filling
Filling station pumps are equipped with
automatic cut-off sensing to avoid fuel
spillage; DO NOT attempt to fill the tank
beyond this point or spillage could result due
to expansion of the fuel.
The reduced diameter filler neck accepts
ONLY a narrow filler nozzle of the type found
on pumps that deliver unleaded fuel.
WARNING
DO NOT fully fill the tank if the vehicle is to
be parked in direct sunlight or high ambient
temperature - expansion of the fuel could
cause spillage.
WARNING
Ensure the filler cap is fitted correctly after
refueling, otherwise the Check Engine
warning light may illuminate.
Empty fuel tank
DO NOT RUN THE FUEL TANK DRY!
Running the fuel tank dry could create an
engine misfire capable of damaging the
catalytic converter. It will also cause the Check
Engine warning light to illuminate.
INERTIA SWITCH
For information about the operation of the
inertia switch see ’Locks & alarm’.
