use winter diesel fuel without problems at the
outside temperatures expected in the country
where it is on sale.
The vehicle may be equipped with a fuel pre-
heating system. The fuel preheating system
warms up the fuel and thereby improves its flow
characteristics.
Fuel additives
! Do not use any fuel additive. Fuel additives
may cause malfunctions and engine failure.
Do not add any petrol, kerosene or flow
improvers to diesel fuel to improve its flow
characteristics. Flow improvers actually
impair the lubricity of the diesel fuel. This can
cause damage to the injection system, for
example.
Bio-diesel fuels in accordance with
DIN EN 14214
UCOME (Used Cooking Oil Methyl Ester)
The vehicle must not be run on bio-diesel
approved in accordance with DIN EN14214
which has been manufactured from used cook-
ing oil/cooking fat = UCOME (Used Cooking Oil
Methyl Ester).
FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel
Operation with FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel
is only permitted for BlueTec
®
vehicles with
OM471 engines (code M0W). A special fuel pre-
filter (code M8Y) must be fitted on these vehi-
cles. Information regarding this can be obtained
from any qualified specialist workshop.
Observe the safety notes on service products.
Operate your vehicle using pure FAME fatty acid
methyl ester fuel in compliance with
DIN EN 14214. You can also operate your vehi-
cle using a mixture of conventional diesel fuel in
compliance with EN 590 and FAME fatty acid
methyl ester fuel.
Observe the specifications in accordance with
Sheet No. 135 of the Mercedes-Benz Specifica-
tions for Service Products for operation with
FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel.
Operating the vehicle with FAME fatty acid
methyl ester fuel results in a slightly higher fuel
consumption.
Observe the following when using FAME fatty
acid methyl ester fuel:
R
the intervals for oil, fuel filter and oil filter
changes are noticeably shorter.
R
have the fuel and oil filter replaced at every oil
change.
Have the oil, oil filter and fuel filter replaced
according to the specified intervals or every
six months at the latest.
-
replace the fuel filter every 30,000 km
-
replace the oil and oil filter every
60,000 km
R
only add FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel as
per DIN EN 14214. Fuel additives that do not
comply with the DIN EN 14214 standard
could cause malfunctions or engine damage.
R
FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel attacks
painted surfaces. Therefore, do not allow
FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel to affect the
paintwork. Immediately rinse FAME fatty acid
methyl ester fuel with water.
R
during long periods out of use, FAME fatty
acid methyl ester fuel can cause fuel system
components to stick together. Therefore, use
all of the FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel
before long periods when the engine is out of
use. Fill the fuel tank with conventional diesel
fuel and allow the engine to run before park-
ing the vehicle.
R
FAME fatty acid methyl ester is subject to a
natural ageing process. Mercedes-Benz rec-
ommends that you do not fill up vehicles with
long periods out of use, e.g. fire engines, with
FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuel.
Low outside temperatures
For temperatures below 5 †, Mercedes-Benz
recommends switching from using fatty acid
methyl ester FAME fuel to conventional diesel
fuel.
The replacement interval for the fuel filter may
be significantly shortened depending on the raw
materials used and method of production of
FAME fatty acid methyl ester fuels. The cold
start ability is also reduced.
Alternative diesel fuels in accordance
with DIN EN 15940
