REFUELING THE VEHICLE
Refueling The Vehicle
Before refueling, make sure that the fuel type
is correct.
Also, stop the engine before refueling.
NOTE:
An inefficient catalytic converter leads to
harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing
to air pollution.
Refueling Capacity
To ensure that you fill the tank completely, top
off twice after the first click of the fuel nozzle.
Further top-off could cause faults in the fuel
feeding system.
Refueling Procedure
The fuel filler door is unlocked when the
central door locking system is unlocked. It is
automatically locked when the central locking
system is applied.
Opening The Fuel Filler Door
To refuel proceed as follows:
1. Open fuel filler door by pressing on the
point shown by the arrow.

2. Remove the fuel filler cap.
3. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler
pipe.
4. When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off,
before removing the nozzle, wait for at
least 10 seconds in order for the fuel to
flow inside the tank.
5. Remove the fuel filler nozzle, tighten the
gas cap about ¼ turn until you hear one
click. This is an indication that cap is prop-
erly tightened.
The label indicates the fuel type (UNLEADED
FUEL = gasoline).

CAUTION!
Never introduce leaded fuel to the tank,
even in small amounts in an emergency, as
this would damage the catalytic converter
beyond repair.
