FUEL QUALITY
WARNINGS
Do not mix diesel with oil, gasoline
or other liquids. This could cause a
chemical reaction.
Do not add kerosene, paraffin or
gasoline to diesel. This could cause
damage to the fuel 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.
Note:
We do not recommend the use of
additional additives to prevent fuel waxing.
Biodiesel Usage
WARNING
Do not use raw oils, fats or waste
cooking greases, these are not
biodiesel.
Your vehicle is suitable for use with
biodiesel blends up to 10% (B10).You can
achieve acceptable engine performance
and durability using B10 by adhering to
below guidelines.
Note:
Use diesel fuel that meets the
equivalent specification defined by EN 590
or the relevant national specification, from
a trusted fuel supplier
Note:
If your vehicle experiences low
temperature fuel waxing issues, consider
using different diesel brands or diesel with
lower biodiesel content.
Long-Term Storage
Most diesel fuels contain biodiesel. Do not
leave vehicles filled with B10 fuels parked
for more than 1 month. Diesel fuels
containing biodiesel can degrade quickly
when stored for long periods of time,
especially when exposed to warm and
humid conditions. Alternatively, we
recommend that you seek advice from your
dealer.
Diesel-Winter Driving
Diesel fuel purchased in the city and
coastal regions often has different cold
temperature properties than diesel sold in
Alpine regions. Wax may form in the fuel
lines in the vehicles left outside in below
zero temperature for a longer time. This
means that the vehicle will not start or run
correctly until the wax has melted. To
avoid this problem, if a prolonged or
overnight stay is planned in an alpine
region then it is strongly recommended
that the vehicle carry 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. Please
confirm current availability at the time of
your trip.

an adverse effect on powertrain
components.
