FUEL QUALITY - DIESEL
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.
Use diesel that meets the
specification defined by EN 590 or
the relevant national specification.
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.
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. 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.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
Avoid running out of fuel, this can cause
damage not covered by the vehicle
warranty.
If your vehicle has run out of fuel:
•
Normally, adding five liters of fuel is
enough to restart the engine. If your
vehicle is on a steep grade, more fuel
may be required.
• 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.
Filling a Portable Fuel Container
Use the following guidelines to avoid
electrostatic charge build-up when filling
an ungrounded fuel container:
• Only use an approved fuel container to
transfer fuel to your vehicle. Place the
container on the ground when filling.
• Do not fill a fuel container while it is
inside your vehicle (including the cargo
area).
• Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact
with the fuel container while filling.
• Do not use a device that holds the fuel
pump nozzle lever in the fill position.
