Fuel recommendation
General information
Depending on the region, many filling stations
sell fuel that has been customized to winter
or summer conditions. Fuel that is available
in winter, for instance helps make a cold start
easier.
Gasoline
General information
For the best fuel efficiency, the gasoline should
be sulfur-free or very low in sulfur content.
Fuels that are marked on the gas pump as
containing metal must not be used.
Fuels with a maximum ethanol content of
25 %, i. e. E10 or E25, may be used for refu-
eling.
The power and consumption specifications re-
fer to operating with RON 98 E10 fuel
When using minimum quality fuel like RON 91
or fuel with an ethanol content of more than
10% to max. 25%, knocking noises may oc-
cur and driving and acoustic performance may
change. These have no effect on the engine
service life.
Safety information
Caution
The use of poor-quality fuels may result in
harmful engine deposits or damage. Addi-
tionally, problems relating to drivability, start-
ing and stalling, especially under certain envi-
ronmental conditions such as high ambient
temperature and high altitude, may occur.
If drivability problems are encountered, we
recommend switching to a high quality gaso-
line brand and a higher octane grade — AKI
number — for a few tank fills. To avoid harm-
ful 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.
