Vehicles with diesel engines can also run
on RME ffuel (Rapeseed Methyl Ester).
Ask a Technical Service Centre or automo-
bile club where biodiesel is available.
See chapter "Filling the tank".
Properties o
of R
RME
•
RME is chemically produced from veg-
etable oil (predominantly rapeseed oil) in
a process whereby the oil is mixed with
methanol and converted, via a catalyst,
into RME.
•
RME is almost totally sulfur free. The
combustion of RME thus emits practically
no sulfur dioxide (SO
2
).

European Standard.
2)
Cetan-Zahl (Cetane Number). Measure of
diesel fuel ignitability.
3)
DIN preliminary Standard.
•
Exhaust gas contains less
– carbon monoxide
– hydrocarbons
– particles (i.e. soot)
than with conventional diesel fuel.
All emission values are lower than legal
requirements.
•
RME fuel is biodegradable.
•
Performance may be slightly lower.
•
Fuel consumption may be slightly
higher.
•
RME can be used in temperatures down
to approximately –10 °C.
•
Diesel must be added at ambient tem-
peratures of less than –10 °C to prevent
deterioration of the biodiesel due to low
temperatures. The mixing ratio of diesel
to biodiesel must be approximately
50:50.
If tthe R
RME rratio e
exceeds 5
50%, ttoo
much s
smoke m
may b
be fformed.
•
During the summer months, RME may
be mixed with diesel at any ratio.
