CAUTION
The following instructions must be observed, otherwise there is a risk of dam-
age to the engine and to the exhaust system.
When petrol with a lower than the prescribed octane is used, only continue
■
driving at mid-range engine speeds and with minimal strain on the engine. Re-
fuel using petrol of the prescribed octane number as soon as possible.
Lower than 91 octane petrol should not be used, even in an emergency!

■
ditions for a smooth-running engine. We therefore do not recommend mixing
fuel additives into the petrol - There is a risk of engine damage or damage to
the exhaust system.
The following additives may not be used - There is a risk of engine damage
■
or damage to the exhaust system!
Additives with metal components (metallic additives), in particular with
■
manganese and iron content.
Fuels with metallic content (e.g. LRP - lead replacement petrol).
■
Notice
Unleaded petrol that has a higher octane number than that required by the
■
engine can be used without limitations.
The use of petrol with an octane rating higher than 95 ROZ in does not result
■
in either a noticeable increase in power nor lower fuel consumption in vehicles
for which unleaded petrol 95/min 92 or 93 ROZ is specified.
On vehicles using the prescribed unleaded petrol of min. 95 ROZ, the use of
■
petrol with a higher octane number than 95 ROZ can lead to an increase in
power and reduction in fuel consumption.
