MUST BE READ! REFUELLING petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) minimum. Diesel engines: only refuel with normal diesel (avoid premium diesel) conforming with cetane number 51 minimum. The use of other products or mixtures may damage the engine beyond repair and consequently cause lapse of warranty in relation to the damage caused.
