Filling up with fuel
The fuel tank is fitted with a coverless fuel
filler system. Filling is carried out as follows:
•
Open the fuel filler flap (p. 296). See also
Fuel filler flap - manual opening (p. 296).
•
Insert the pump nozzle in the fuel filler
opening. Take care to insert the nozzle
properly
into the filler pipe. The filler pipe
consists of two opening covers. The noz-
zle must be pushed past both covers
before refuelling is started.
•
Do not overfill the tank but fill until the
pump nozzle cuts out.
NOTE
Excess fuel in the tank can overflow in hot
weather.
