NOTICE
Incorrect fuels can damage the fuel system
and the engine. There is a risk of damage
to property, among other potential dam-
age. Do not use fuels with a higher ethanol
content than recommended. Do not refuel
with fuels containing methanol, e.g. M5 to
M100.
NOTICE
Fuel that does not comply with the mini-
mum quality can compromise engine func-
tion or cause engine damage. There is a
risk of damage to property, among other
potential damage. Do not fill with fuel that
does not comply with the minimum qual-
ity.
CAUTION
The use of poor-quality fuels may result in
harmful engine deposits or damage. Addi-
tionally, problems relating to drivability,
starting and stalling, especially under cer-
tain environmental conditions such as
high ambient temperature and high alti-
tude, may occur.
If drivability problems are encountered,
we recommend switching to a high quality
gasoline brand and a higher octane grade
— AKI number — for a few tank fills. To
avoid harmful engine deposits, it is highly
recommended to purchase gasoline from
Top Tier retailers.
Failure to comply with these recommenda-
tions may result in the need for additional
maintenance.
Recommended gas quality

John Cooper Works:
MINI recommends AKI 93.
Minimum fuel grade

John Cooper Works:

If you use gasoline with this minimum AKI
Rating, the engine may produce knocking
sounds when starting at high external tem-

life.
