Hi
I forget to switch off engine when I was refuelling. And now on my screen it looks like I didn't refuel. Can I do something about it or I have to contact service?
Thanks
Rob

Hello,

Try to reset gauge by disconnecting the battery for about twenty minutes.
This will allow the instrument cluster to register the new fuel level.

Disconnect the battery at the negative connector.

The battery is located in the boot on the right hand side.
See illustration below.

Please let us know how you get along.

Cheers, Boris
