! Do not use diesel to refuel vehicles with a
petrol engine. Do not switch on the ignition if
you accidentally refuel with the wrong fuel.
Otherwise, the fuel will enter the fuel system.
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel can
result in damage to the fuel system and the
engine. Notify a qualified specialist workshop
and have the fuel tank and fuel lines drained
completely.
! Only refuel using unleaded petrol with at
least 95 RON/85 MON that conforms to Euro-
pean standard EN 228 or E DIN 51626-1 or an
equivalent specification.
Fuel with this specification may contain up to
10 % ethanol.

Do not mix such fuels with the fuel recom-
mended for your vehicle.
! If you are using drums or canisters to refuel
the vehicle, you should filter the fuel before
adding it.
This will prevent malfunctions in the fuel sys-
tem due to contaminated fuel.
E10 fuel contains an admixture of up to 10%
bioethanol. Your vehicle is E10 compatible. You
can refuel your vehicle using E10 unleaded pet-
rol.
If the recommended fuel is not available, you
may, but only as a temporary measure, use
unleaded petrol with an octane rating of
91 RON/82.5 MON. This may reduce the
engine's performance and increase fuel con-
sumption. Avoid driving at full throttle.
i You will generally find information about the
fuel grade on the filling pump. If there is no
60 l
identification on the filling pump, consult a
filling station attendant.
