SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNINGS
Always stop refuelling after the
fuel nozzle stops the second
time. Additional fuel will fill the
expansion space in the fuel tank
which could lead to fuel overflowing.
Fuel spillage could be hazardous to
other road users.
Do not use any kind of flames
or heat near the fuel system.
The fuel system is under pressure.
There is a risk of injury if the fuel
system is leaking.
FUEL QUALITY - PETROL
Note:
We recommend that you use
only high quality fuel without additives
or other engine treatments.
CAUTION
Do not use leaded petrol or
petrol with additives containing
other metallic compounds (e.g.
manganese-based). They could
damage the emission system.
Use minimum 95 octane
unleaded petrol that meets the
specification defined by EN 228, or
equivalent.
FUEL QUALITY - DIESEL
Note:
We recommend that you use
only high quality fuel without additives
or other engine treatments.
WARNING
Do not mix diesel with oil, petrol
or other liquids. This could cause
a chemical reaction.
CAUTION
Do not add kerosene, paraffin or
petrol to diesel. This could cause
damage to the fuel system.
Note:
We do not recommend the
prolonged use of additives intended
to prevent fuel waxing.
Use diesel that meets the
specification defined by EN 590, or
equivalent.
You can use diesel that contains up
to 5% RME (bio diesel).
