ACCESS
The key cannot be removed from
the lock until the cap is refi tted.
Opening the ller cap may cre-
ate a noise caused by an inrush
of air. This vacuum is entirely
normal, resulting from the seal-
ing of the fuel system.
FUEL TANK
Fuel tank capacity: approximately
50 litres (petrol) or 48 litres (Diesel).
Low fuel level
When the fuel tank minimum
level is reached this warning
lamp comes on on the instru-
ment panel. When it rst comes
on there remains approximately 5 litres
of fuel in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to
avoid running out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also
to the "Checks" section.

to the left,
remove the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the
ap,
ll the tank, but do not continue
