Note:
We do not recommend the use of
additional additives or other engine
treatments for normal vehicle use.
Use minimum 91 octane unleaded gasoline
that meets the specification defined by EN
228 or the equivalent national
specification.
Your vehicle is suitable for use with ethanol
blends up to 20% (E20).
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.
FUEL QUALITY
WARNING
Do not mix diesel with gasoline,
gasohol or alcohol. This could cause
an explosion.
Use diesel that meets the specification
defined by EN 590 or the relevant national
specification, from a trusted fuel supplier.
Note:
We recommend that you use only
high quality fuel.
Note:
The use of aftermarket fuel additives
or other engine treatments are not
recommended.
Biodiesel Usage
Your vehicle is suitable for use with
biodiesel blends up to 7% (B7). You can
achieve acceptable engine performance
and durability using B7 by adhering to
below guidelines. Do not fill the fuel tank
with fuel that contains biodiesel with
blends greater than 7%.
Note:
Do not use raw oils, fats or waste
cooking greases, these are not biodiesel.
Note:
If your vehicle experiences low
temperature fuel waxing issues, consider
using different diesel brands or diesel with
lower biodiesel content.
Note:
We do not recommend the use of
additional additives to prevent fuel waxing.
Long-Term Storage
Most diesel fuels contain biodiesel. Do not
leave vehicles filled with biodiesel parked
for more than one month. Diesel fuels
containing biodiesel can degrade quickly
when stored for long periods of time,
especially when exposed to warm and
humid conditions. We recommend that
you seek advice from an authorized dealer.
Winter Driving
Diesel sold in city and coastal regions often
has different cold temperature properties
than diesel sold in Alpine regions. Wax may
form in the fuel lines if the temperature is
0°C or below.
Note:
The engine may not start or run
correctly until the wax melts.
To prevent fuel waxing, if a prolonged or
overnight stay is planned in an alpine
region, we strongly recommend that the
vehicle has enough fuel to get to the Alpine
region, and is then refuelled locally so that
at least 50% of the fuel volume is Alpine
mix diesel.
At the time of publication, Alpine mix diesel
is available at the following BP service
stations:
•
Victoria
Bright, Corryong and
Mansfield.
•
NSW
Jindabyne, Thredbo, Tumut,
Talbingo, Adaminaby and Cooma.
Note:
Please confirm current availability at
the time of your trip.
