Do not mix these fuels with petrol and do
not use any special additives. Otherwise,
this can lead to damage to the engine. This
does not include additives for the removal
and prevention of residue build-up on the
inlet valves.
! Use a filter when adding fuel from a fuel
can. The fuel lines and/or the diesel injec-
tion system could otherwise be blocked by
particles from the fuel can.
i
If the recommended fuel is not available,
but only as a temporary measure, you may
also use regular unleaded petrol,
91 RON/82.5 MON. This may reduce
engine performance and increase fuel con-
sumption. Avoid driving at full throttle.
In some countries, the fuel grade available
may not be adequate and could cause res-
idue to build up around the inlet valves. In
such cases, and in consultation with a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre, the petrol
may be mixed with the additive recommen-
ded by Mercedes-Benz (part no.
A000989254510). You must observe the
notes and mixing ratios specified on the
container.

Y
AMG vehicles
! Only refuel using super-grade unleaded
petrol with at least 98 RON/88 MON,
which conforms to European standard EN
228 or equivalent.
You can otherwise impair engine output or
damage the engine.
i
If the recommended fuel is not available
and only as a temporary measure, you may
also use premium-grade unleaded petrol,
95 RON/85 MON. This may reduce engine
performance and increase fuel consump-
tion. Avoid driving at full throttle.
! In emergencies, and only when the rec-
ommended fuel is not available, you may
also use standard unleaded petrol,
91 RON/82.5 MON.
However, using this fuel results in consid-
erably higher petrol consumption and sig-
nificantly reduced engine performance.
Avoid driving at full throttle.
If no fuel other than regular petrol with
91 RON/82.5 MON or a lower grade is per-
manently available, you should have the
vehicle adapted to run on this fuel by the
local after-sales service centre.
CLS 350 BlueEFFICIENCY
! Only refuel using unleaded, sulphur-free
premium-grade petrol with at least
95 RON/85 MON, which conforms to Euro-
pean standard EN 228 or an equivalent
specification.
You can otherwise impair engine output or
damage the engine.
i
In some countries, the available petrol
may not be sufficiently low in sulphur. This
fuel can temporarily produce unpleasant
odours, especially on short journeys. As
soon as sulphur-free fuel (sulphur content
< 10 ppm) is used for refuelling, the odours
are reduced.
Diesel (EN 590, DIN 51628)
Fuel grade
! Only refuel with diesel that conforms to
European standard EN 590 or German
standard DIN 51628 or equivalent. You can
otherwise impair engine output or damage
the engine.
! Vehicles with diesel particle filters: in
countries outside the EU, only use low sul-
phur Euro diesel with a sulphur content of
