To ensure the longevity and full perform-

ance of the engine, only premium-grade

unleaded gasoline must be used.

If standard unleaded gasoline is unavaila-

ble and you have to refuel with unleaded

gasoline of a lower grade, observe the fol-

lowing precautions:

R

Only fill the fuel tank to half full with reg-

ular unleaded gasoline and fill the rest

with premium-grade unleaded gasoline

as soon as possible.

R

Do not drive at the maximum speed.

R

Avoid sudden acceleration and engine

speeds over 3,000 rpm.

You will usually find information about the fuel

grade on the pump. If you cannot find the

label on the pump, ask the staff for assis-

tance.

fied specialist workshop or visit

E10 fuel contains up to 10% bioethanol.

Your vehicle is E10-compatible. You can

refuel your vehicle using E10 fuel.

As a temporary measure, if the recommended

fuel is not available, you may also use regular

unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of

87 AKI/91 RON. This may reduce engine per-

formance and increase fuel consumption.

Avoid driving at full throttle and sudden accel-

eration. Never refuel using fuel with a lower

AKI.
