WARNING
When driving with low fuel, the vehicle may
stall in traffic and cause accidents and se-
vere injuries.
●
If the fuel tank level is too low, fuel could
reach the engine irregularly, particularly
when driving up or down slopes.
●
The steering system and the assistant
systems and brakes do not work when the
engine is running irregularly or switches off
due to lack of fuel or an irregular supply
thereof.
●
Always refuel when there is only one
quarter of fuel in tank to prevent the vehi-
cle to stop due to lack of fuel.
CAUTION
Never run the fuel tank completely dry. An
irregular fuel supply can cause misfiring
and unburnt fuel could enter the exhaust
system. The catalytic converter or the par-
ticulate filter may get damaged!
Note
The small arrow on the fuel gauge next to
the fuel pump symbol points out towards
