Note when refuelling

Note the safety precautions dis-
played at garages and filling sta-

tions when handling fuel.

Place the screw cap in the holder on
the flap.

When refuelling, insert the filler nozzle
fully into the filler neck. If the filler noz-
zle is raised during refuelling,
> the supply of fuel will be cut off pre-

maturely

> fuel vapour and fumes will be fed

back less effectively.

The fuel tank will be full when the fuel
supply is shut off for the first time.

Closing the fuel filler cap

Place the cap in position and turn it
clockwise until it closes with a clearly
audible click.

Fuel tank capacity

> Approx. 63 litres (13.9 gal), including

otherwise engine functions cannot

be assured and damage could result.
