Refueling

Refueling the vehicle
& WARNING Risk of fire or explosion from
fuel
Fuels are highly flammable.
Fire, open flames, smoking and creating
#
sparks must be avoided.
Switch off the ignition and, if it has
#
been in use, switch off the stationary
heater before you refuel your vehicle.
& WARNING Risk of injury from fuels
Fuels are poisonous and hazardous to your
health.
Do not swallow fuel or let it come into
#
contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Do not inhale fuel vapor.
#
Keep children away from fuel.
#
Keep doors and windows closed during
#
the refueling process.
If you or other people come into contact with
fuel, observe the following:
Immediately rinse fuel off your skin with
#
soap and water.
If fuel comes into contact with your
#
eyes, immediately rinse them thor‐
oughly with clean water. Seek medical
attention immediately.
If you swallow fuel, seek medical atten‐
#
tion immediately. Do not induce vomit‐
ing.
Change immediately out of clothing that
#
has come into contact with fuel.
& WARNING Risk of fire or explosion from
electrostatic charge
Electrostatic charge can create sparks and
thereby ignite fuel vapors.
Before you open the fuel filler cap or
#
take hold of the pump nozzle, touch the
metallic vehicle body.
This discharges any electrostatic charge
that may have built up.
Do not get into the vehicle again during
#
the refueling process.
Otherwise, electrostatic charge could
build up again.
* NOTE Damage caused by the wrong fuel
Vehicles with a gasoline engine:
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could
result in damage to the fuel system, the
engine and the emission control system.
The RON requirement is located in the
#
fuel filler flap.
Only refuel with low-sulfur unleaded
#
fuel.
This fuel may contain up to 10% ethanol. Your
vehicle is suitable for use with E10 fuel.
