Use minimum 95 octane
unleaded petrol that meets the
specification defined by EN 228, or
equivalent. You can also use a
mixture of unleaded petrol and bio
ethanol E 85.
Long-term storage
Due to small amounts of corrosive
impurities that may be found in the
bio ethanol E 85, it is recommended
that you fill the tank with only 95
octane unleaded petrol prior to
long-term storage of your vehicle.
