Only refuel using super unleaded petrol with
at least 98 ROZ, if you want maximum per-
formance from the engine. Alternatively, you
can also use unleaded petrol of at least
95 ROZ.
As a temporary measure, if the recommended
fuel is not available, you may also use regular
unleaded petrol with an octane rating of
91 ROZ. Doing so results in higher fuel con-
sumption and significantly reduced perform-
ance. Never refuel using fuel with a lower
RON.
Fuel of this specification may contain up to
10% ethanol.
Fuel that does not conform to EN 228 or E DIN
51626–1 can lead to increased wear as well
as damage to the engine and exhaust system.
Mercedes-AMG vehicles
!
Only refuel using super unleaded petrol with
at least 98 ROZ, that conforms to European
standard EN 228 or an equivalent specifica-
tion.
You can otherwise impair engine output or
damage the engine.
Fuel of this specification may contain up to
10% ethanol. Your vehicle is suitable for use
with E10 fuel. You may refuel your vehicle
using E10 fuel.
!
As a temporary measure, if the recommen-
ded fuel is not available, you may also use
unleaded petrol with an octane rating of
95 RON. This may reduce engine perform-
ance and increase fuel consumption. As much
as possible, avoid driving at full throttle.
!
As a temporary measure, if the recommen-
ded fuel is not available, you may also use
unleaded petrol in emergencies with an
octane rating of 91 RON.
Doing so results in noticeably higher fuel con-
sumption, and the engine power output is
noticeably reduced. Avoid driving at full throt-
tle.
If no fuel other than petrol with 91 RON or a
lower grade is available, you should have the
vehicle adapted to run on this fuel at a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
Additives in petrol
!
Operating the engine with fuel additives
added later can lead to engine failure. Do not
mix fuel additives with fuel. This does not
include additives for the removal and preven-
tion of residue build-up. Petrol must only be
mixed with additives recommended by
Mercedes-Benz. Observe the instructions for
use in the product description. More informa-
tion about recommended additives can be
obtained from any Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use fuel
brands that have additives.
The quality of the fuel available in some coun-
tries may not be sufficient. Residue could build
up in the fuel injection system as a result. In this
case, in consultation with a Mercedes-Benz Ser-
vice Centre, the petrol may be mixed with the
cleaning additive recommended by Mercedes-
Benz. Always observe the notes and mixing
ratios specified on the container.
Engine oil
General notes
When handling engine oil, observe the important
safety notes on service products (
The quality of the engine oil is decisive for the
function and service life of an engine. After
extensive tests, Mercedes-Benz approves
engine oils that correspond to the current tech-
nical standard.
Therefore, only Mercedes-Benz approved
engine oils may be used in Mercedes-Benz
engines.
