Information on low outside temperatures
Refuel your vehicle with as much winter diesel fuel

Before changing over to winter diesel fuel, the fuel
tank should be empty, if possible. When first refu-

low, e.g. to reserve level. The fuel tank can be fil-
led as usual when next refuelling.

filling station or a qualified specialist workshop.
