If the available fuel is not sufficiently low in sul‐
fur, this can produce unpleasant odors.
Only refuel using unleaded premium grade gaso‐
line with at least 91 AKI/95 RON.
As a temporary measure, if the recommended
fuel is not available, you may also use unleaded
regular gasoline which has at least the octane
number specified in the instruction label in the
fuel filler flap (
page 120). This may reduce
/
engine performance and increase fuel consump‐
tion.
Never refuel using gasoline with a lower RON.
* NOTE Premature wear through unleaded
regular gasoline
Unleaded regular gasoline can cause the
engine to wear more quickly and impair lon‐
gevity and performance.
If unleaded premium grade gasoline is
unavailable and you have to refuel using
unleaded regular gasoline:
Only fill the fuel tank to half full with
#
unleaded regular gasoline and fill up as
soon as possible with unleaded pre‐
mium grade gasoline.
Do not drive at the maximum design
#
speed.
Avoid sudden acceleration and engine
#
speeds over 3000 rpm.

Technical data 355
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use fuel
brands that have additives.
In some countries, the fuel available may not
have sufficient additives. Residue could build up
in the fuel injection system as a result. In this
case, in consultation with an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center, the fuel may be mixed
with the cleaning additive recommended by
Mercedes-Benz. Be sure to observe the notes
and mixing ratios specified on the container.
