Filling up with fuel
Important things to consider when refuelling.
Opening/closing the fuel cap
A certain overpressure may arise in the tank in the event of high outside temperatures. Open the cap slowly.
- After refuelling - refit the cap and turn it until one or more clicking sounds are heard.
Note
This symbol can be illuminated if the fuel filler cap is not firmly closed or if the engine is running during refuelling. However, this does not affect the performance of the car.
Filling up with fuel
- Do not overfill the tank but stop refuelling when the pump nozzle cuts out the first time.
Note
Excess fuel in the tank can overflow in hot weather.
Filling with a fuel can1
When filling with a fuel can, use the funnel located under the floor hatch in the cargo area.
Make sure you insert the funnel's pipe firmly into the filler pipe. The filler pipe has an openable cover and the funnel's pipe must be slid past the cover before filling can begin.
