fuel grade
Always use a high-grade fuel, that
complies with legislation in force in
each country, and conforms to the
specifications given on the label inside
cover A. Refer to the information on
"Engine specifications" in Section 6.
Vehicles running on ethanol-
based fuel
It is necessary to use unleaded petrol
or fuel containing a maximum of 85%
ethanol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine. To avoid this problem, use un-
leaded petrol or, for equipped vehi-
cles, use the heater integrated into the
engine: connect the specified end of
the extension piece supplied into the
socket integrated into the radiator grille
and the other end into a 220V socket
for at least 6 hours before starting.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un-
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
