Note:
We do not recommend the use of
additional additives to prevent fuel waxing.
Long-Term Storage
Most diesel fuels contain biodiesel. We
recommend that you fill the fuel tank with
fuel that does not contain biodiesel if you
intend to store your vehicle for more than
two months.
FUEL QUALITY - GASOLINE
WARNINGS
Do not mix gasoline with oil, diesel
or other liquids. This could cause a
chemical reaction.
Do not use leaded gasoline or
gasoline with additives containing
other metallic compounds (e.g.
manganese-based). They could damage
the emission system.
Note:
We recommend that you use only
high quality fuel.
Note:
We do not recommend the use of
additional additives or other engine
treatments for normal vehicle use.
The engine in your vehicle has been
optimized for operation using 95 octane
unleaded gasoline that meets the
specification defined by EN 228 or the
equivalent national specification.
The engine in your vehicle can also operate
using 91 octane unleaded gasoline.
However if you choose to do so, you may
notice some minor loss of performance,
economy and increase engine noise.
Your vehicle is suitable for use with ethanol
blends up to 10% (E5 and E10).
Note:
Using gasoline containing more than
10% ethanol may damage the engine or
emission system and may affect the vehicle
Warranty.
Note:
The use of gasoline containing
ethanol may increase the fuel consumption
of your vehicle.
Long-Term Storage
Most gasoline contains ethanol. We
recommend that you fill the fuel tank with
fuel that does not contain ethanol if you
intend to store your vehicle for more than
two months. Alternatively, we recommend
that you seek advice from an authorized
dealer.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
Avoid running out of fuel because this
situation may have an adverse effect on
engine components.
If you have run out of fuel:
•
You may need to cycle the ignition from
off to on several times after refueling
to allow the fuel system to pump the
fuel from the tank to the engine. On
restarting, cranking time will take a few
seconds longer than normal. With
keyless ignition, just start the engine.
Crank time will be longer than usual.
•
Normally, adding 4 L of fuel is enough
to restart the engine. If the vehicle is
out of fuel and on a steep grade, more
than 4 L may be required.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
WARNING
Do not park or idle your vehicle over
dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The exhaust
will radiate a considerable amount of heat
during use, and after you have switched
the engine off. This is a potential fire
hazard.
