for oil change can be obtained from any quali-
fied specialist workshop.
!
If you are using drums or canisters to refuel
the vehicle, you should filter the fuel before
adding it.
This will prevent malfunctions in the fuel sys-
tem due to contaminated fuel.
!
Do not use fuel additives. Fuel additives can
cause malfunctions and engine damage.
Do not add any petrol, paraffin or flow
improver to the diesel fuel to improve flow
characteristics. Such flow improvers reduce
the lubricant properties of the diesel fuel. This
can result in damage to the diesel injection
system, for example.
G
WARNING
If you heat fuel system components, e.g. with
a hot-air gun or naked flame, these compo-
nents could be damaged. This can cause fuel
to escape and ignite. Depending on the type
of damage, fuel may also not escape until the
engine is running. There is a risk of fire and
explosion.
Never heat fuel system components. Contact
a qualified specialist workshop to rectify the
malfunction.
Notes on low outside temperatures
Refuel your vehicle with as much winter diesel
fuel as possible at the beginning of winter.
Before switching to winter diesel fuel, the fuel
tank should be as empty as possible. When first
refuelling with winter diesel fuel, only refuel
using a small amount, e.g. to reserve level. When
refuelling the next time, the fuel tank can be fil-
led normally again.

Notes on fuel consumption
H
Environmental note
CO
(carbon dioxide) is the gas which scien-
2
tists believe to be principally responsible for
global warming (the greenhouse effect). Your
vehicle's CO
emissions are directly related to
2
fuel consumption and therefore depend on:
Service products
efficient use of the fuel by the engine
R
driving style
R
other non-technical factors, such as envi-
R
ronmental influences, road conditions or
traffic flow
You can minimise your vehicle's CO
sions by driving carefully and having it serv-
iced regularly.
i
Only for certain countries: the respective
current consumption and emission values of
your vehicle can be found in the COC docu-
ments (CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY).
These documents are supplied when the vehi-
cle is delivered.
Consumption figures were based on the cur-
rently valid respective version:
for vehicles with exhaust gas standard
R
Euro 6 as per directive (EC) no. 715/2007
for vehicles with exhaust gas standard
R
EURO VI as per directive (EC)
no. 595/2009
Fuel consumption depends on:
vehicle version
R
driving style
R
operating conditions
R
the fuel type and fuel grade used
R
Tank capacity and tank reserve
Depending on equipment, the total capacity of
the fuel tank may vary.
