Permissible Fuels
If other fuels are used which do not meet the requirements of the operating manual, the
warranty will be voided.
Winter Operation with Diesel Fuel
Special demands are placed on the cold behaviour (temperature limit value of the filtrability) for winter
operation. Suitable fuels are available at filling stations in winter.
Important: For engines with common rail injection, the mixing of petroleum and adding of
extra low additives is not permissible.
At low ambient temperatures paraf- fin discharges can lead to blockages in the fuel system and cause
operating faults. Below 0 °C ambient temperature use winter diesel (down to -20 °C) (filling stations provide
this in good time before the cold season starts).
z
Special diesel fuels can be used for arctic climates to -44 °C.
