Unleaded petrol
Your vehicle must only be run on unleaded
petrol that complies with the Standard EN
228 (in Germany, also DIN 51626 – 1, or E10
for unleaded petrol with 95 and 91 octane
rating (RON) or DIN 51626 – 2, or E5 for un-
leaded petrol with 95 and 98 RON).
Prescribed fuel – unleaded petrol (95/91
RON)
Use unleaded petrol with 95 RON. Unleaded
petrol with 91 RON can also be used, al-
though this will result in a slight loss of pow-
er.
If, as an emergency measure, you have to fill
the tank with petrol with a lower RON to that
prescribed, use only moderate engine
speeds and light throttle. High engine speed
and full throttle can seriously damage the en-
gine! Fill up with petrol with the correct RON
as soon as possible.
Prescribed fuel – unleaded petrol (min. 95
RON)
Use unleaded petrol with 95 RON.
If unleaded petrol with 95 RON is not availa-
ble, you can fill up with petrol with 91 RON as
an emergency measure. In this case, use only
moderate engine speeds and a light throttle.
High engine speed and full throttle can seri-
ously damage the engine! Fill up with petrol
with the correct RON as soon as possible.
Petrol with a RON below 91 cannot be used,
even as an emergency measure. Risk of seri-
ously damaging the engine!
Unleaded petrol with higher RON
Unleaded petrol with a higher RON to that
prescribed can be used without limits.
In vehicles running on prescribed unleaded
petrol with 95/91 RON, there is no notable
increase in power or lower fuel consumption
when petrol with a RON higher than 95 is
used.
