Fuel

Fuel for petrol engines

Only use unleaded fuel that complies
with European standard EN 228 or
E DIN 51626-1 or equivalent.
Usage of fuel with quality, not
complying to the Technical
Regulations in effect (Decree № 118
of 27.02.2008 with amendments of
30.12.2008 № 1076) can lead to
engine damage and loss of all
warranty obligations.
Your engine is capable to run with
E10 fuel that fulfills these standards.
E10 fuel contains up to 10 %
bioethanol.
Use fuel with the recommended
octane rating 3 280. Use of fuel with
too low an octane rating can reduce
engine power and torque and slightly
increases fuel consumption.
Caution
Do not use fuel or fuel additives
that contain metallic compounds
such as manganese-based
additives. This may cause engine
damage.
Caution
Use of fuel that does not comply to
EN 228 or E DIN 51626-1 or
equivalent can lead to deposits or
engine damage and may affect
your warranty.
Caution
Use of fuel with too low an octane
rating could lead to uncontrolled
combustion and engine damage.

Fuel for diesel engines

Only use diesel fuel that complies
with EN 590.
