•
Be sure to use diesel fuel that complies with the
diesel fuel standard "EN590" specified by the
Committee European de Normalization (CEN).
•
In cold regions, use diesel fuel with properties
appropriate for the temperature predominant in
the area.
•
Avoid storing your vehicle for a long time with
bio-diesel fuel in the fuel tank.
WARNING
•
Never use a mixture of diesel fuel with
gasoline or alcohol or any fuel other than
proper diesel fuel. Using other fuel could
cause a fire or an explosion. If you acci-
dentally use gasoline or alcohol when
refueling the vehicle, remove all of it from
the fuel system.

The engine must be stopped when refuel-
ing. Never fail to put out your cigarette
before refueling if you are smoking.

Never use an alternative fuel or a mixture of
diesel fuel and kerosene. Such fuel has infe-
rior lubricating properties. Using it would
cause a malfunction.
•
Never add any antifreezing agent or other
additive to the fuel, as a damaged fuel injec-
tion system could result.
