Petrol (EN 228, E DIN 51626-1)

Fuel grade

!

Do not use diesel to refuel vehicles with a

petrol engine. Do not switch on the ignition

if you accidentally refuel with the wrong

fuel. Otherwise, fuel can enter the fuel sys-

tem. Even small amounts of the wrong fuel

could result in damage to the fuel system

and the engine. Notify a qualified specialist

workshop and have the fuel tank and fuel

lines drained completely.

!

Only refuel using premium-grade unlea-

ded petrol with at least 95 ROZ/85 MOZ,

that conforms to European standard

EN 228 or E DIN 51626–1 or an equivalent

specification.

Fuel of this specification can contain up to

10 % ethanol.

Fuel that does not conform to EN 228 or

E DIN 51626–1 can lead to increased wear

and damage the engine and exhaust sys-

tem.

!

Only use the fuel recommended. Operat-

ing the vehicle with other fuels can lead to

engine failure.

!

Do not use the following:

R

E85 (petrol with 85% ethanol)

R

E100 (100% ethanol)

R

M15 (petrol with 15% methanol)

R

M30 (petrol with 30% methanol)

R

M85 (petrol with 85% methanol)

R

M100 (100% methanol)

R

Petrol with additives containing metal

R

Diesel

Do not mix such fuels with the fuel recom-

mended for your vehicle. Do not use addi-

tives. This can otherwise lead to engine

damage. This does not include cleaning

additives for the removal and prevention of

residue build-up. Petrol must only be mixed

with additives recommended by Mercedes-

Benz; see "Additives". You can obtain fur-

ther information from any Mercedes-Benz

Service Centre.

Usually you will find information about the

fuel grade on the pump. If you cannot find the

label on the petrol pump, ask the filling sta-

tion staff.

i

E10 fuel contains up to 10% bioethanol.

Your vehicle is suitable for use with E10

fuel. You can refuel your vehicle using E10

fuel.

C 180 BlueEFFICIENCY: as a temporary

measure, if the recommended fuel is not

available, you may also use unleaded petrol

with an octane rating of 93 RON/83 MON.

All other models: as a temporary meas-

ure, if the recommended fuel is not availa-

ble, you may also use unleaded petrol with

an octane rating of 91 RON/82 MON. This

may reduce engine performance and

increase fuel consumption. Avoid driving at

full throttle.

i

In some countries, the available petrol

may not be sufficiently low in sulphur. This

fuel can temporarily produce unpleasant

odours, especially on short journeys. As

soon as sulphur-free fuel (sulphur content

< 10 ppm) is used for refuelling, the odours

are reduced.

Information on refuelling (Y page 165).

AMG vehicles

!

Only refuel using super unleaded petrol

with at least 98 RON/88 MON that con-

forms to European standard EN 228 or an

equivalent specification.

You can otherwise impair engine output or

damage the engine.

!

Premium-grade unleaded petrol with an

octane rating of 95 RON/85 MON may be

used as a temporary measure if the recom-

mended fuel is not available. This may

reduce engine performance and increase

fuel consumption. As much as possible,

avoid driving at full throttle.
