Important remarks

The old CIRRUS connectors in France are very big. With some cars it is necessary to perform some additional actions to be able to connect. E.g. with a VW Touran you have to remove the holding ring of the rubber cap on the filler neck. Or with some Opels you may have to remove the screw cap of the fuel filler neck.

Sometimes the bottles will not get full. Then you can repeat the filling process again or use another filling point, if there are more than one.

Please note, in some directories there are GNVert filling stations (e.g. Angoulême, Vannes) listed that are not listed on the interactive map of GNVert. You can NOT fill up at these stations!
