NGINE
Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable
supplier. If the outside temperature is very low,
the diesel fuel thickens due to the formation of
paraffin clots with consequent defective
operation of the fuel supply system.
In order to avoid these problems different types
of fuel are distributed according to the season:
Summer type, Winter type and arctic type (cold/
mountain areas). If fueling with diesel fuel
whose features are not suitable for the
temperature of use, it is advisable to mix in a
suitable additive with the fuel. With the
proportions shown on the container, pour the
additive in the tank before fueling.
When using or parking the vehicle for a long
time in the mountains or cold areas, it is
advisable to refuel using locally available fuel.
In this case, it is also advisable to keep the tank
over half full.
This vehicle must only use premium diesel fuel
that meets the requirements of EN 590.
Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of water.
To prevent fuel system trouble, drain the
accumulated water from the fuel/water
separator using the provided fuel/water
separator drain. If you buy good quality fuel and
follow the cold weather advice above, fuel
conditioners should not be required in your
vehicle. If available in your area, a high cetane
“premium” diesel fuel may offer improved
cold-starting and warm-up performance.
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a
fuel-blending agent. They can be unstable
under certain conditions and hazardous or
explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
