I was always pushing it or holding the nozzle handle upwards thinking it was pushing nozzle nose down but this will cut out the fuel line every time. Just let it lie and it's fine every time! Thanks, will try that next time, due to fill up at the end of the week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJNewton Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I seem to recall a sticker image to that effect inside the outer cover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJNewton Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 It wouldn't be the only ambiguity in the handbook - I've stumbled across quite a few! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatto Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Yes there is a sticker but it just looks as if they are suggesting you only insert it to the first graduation on the pump nozzle which doesn't work at all. I don't remember seeing it in the manual, will dig it out during my lunch break tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJNewton Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 If it helps I've got a copy online here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatto Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Filled up today and to my amazement the method of letting the nozzle just sit under gravity works perfectly :) Thanks for that will make fill ups much quicker now. I'm sure I'd already tried that but obviously not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could definitely be worded better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baggister Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Kateysan hope you enjoy the new car, I think it's a fun little car to spin around in. I just got a 2014 titanium, i think its a bit noisy too at higher speeds but after a while i get used to it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably happened when I slumped against the car in frustration and realised that worked 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big test coming up as I am travelling around the UK from Glasgow to Oxford to London to Wales. Looking forward to seeing how she goes!! Yes the cabin noise is bad but as I was advised on this thread....turn the radio up 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
