Models for the European Market
• You can use standard type diesel fuels that meet B7 EN590. A standard type
diesel fuel means the fuel that contains biodiesel fuel (FAME) which meets
EN14214.
• Using diesel fuels that do not meet B7 EN590, or using fuels that contain FAME
which does not meet EN14214 may, in the worst case, cause a serious engine
failure.
• Do not leave the diesel fuel that contains FAME unused in the vehicle for a long
period of time. FAME contents may block up the fuel system, causing a serious
engine failure.
• The vehicle is covered under the vehicle warranty given if the fuel that meets B7
EN590 is used. However, if the vehicle is left unused for a long period of time,
the characteristics of the fuel may change, causing a vehicle failure. The vehicle
warranty is not applicable in such cases.
NOTE
• When changing from 0% FAME diesel to the fuel that contains FAME which
meets B7 EN590, there may be a negative impact on performance when pulling
away and driving in general.
