SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNINGS
To avoid fuel spillage that could
be hazardous to other road
users, 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.
The fuel system is under
pressure. There is a risk of injury
if the fuel system is leaking. Do not
use any kind of flames or heat near
the fuel system.
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).
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
