WARNINGS
- Do not attempt to start the engine if you have filled the fuel tank with the wrong fuel. This could damage the engine. Have your vehicle inspected immediately by an authorized dealer.
- Do not bring flames or heat near the fuel system. The fuel system is under pressure. There is a risk of injury if the fuel system leaks.
- If you wash your vehicle with a high-pressure jet, spray the fuel filler door briefly and always from a distance greater than 200 millimeters (8 inches).
- We recommend waiting at least 10 seconds before removing the nozzle to allow any residual fuel to drain into the tank.
- Stop refuelling after the second automatic shut-off of the fuel nozzle. This practice leaves an adequate expansion volume in the tank, which prevents any fuel from overflowing. Fuel spray could pose a risk to other road users.
- During the entire refuelling process, do not remove the fuel nozzle from its position while it is fully inserted.
Note: Your vehicle does not have a fuel filler cap.

- Press the flap to open it.

Note: The spring-loaded locking device opens when you insert a fuel nozzle of the correct diameter. This device helps prevent fuelling errors during refuelling.
- Insert the fuel nozzle up to the first notch A (including the notch). Let it rest on the cover of the fuel filler pipe opening.

- Hold the nozzle in position B while you refuel. Holding the nozzle in position A may restrict the fuel flow and shut off the fuel nozzle before the tank is full.

- Use the fuel nozzle within the indicated area.

- Lift the fuel nozzle slightly to release it.
