MAINTENANCE
Fuel tank Diesel fuel
To maintain the performance and service life of the engine,
always use clean and high-quality fuel.
• To avoid freezing in cold climates, use a diesel fuel that still
functions when the temperature is at least 12°C (21.6°F) below
the lowest expected ambient temperature.
• Use a diesel fuel that has a cetane number of 45 or higher.
When operating at a very low temperature or at a high altitude,
a higher cetane number fuel will be required.
• Use fuel with sulfur content of less than 15ppm by volume.
Especially in the U.S.A. and Canada, ultra-low sulfur fuel
should be used.
A higher sulfur content fuel may cause sulfuric acid corrosion
in the cylinders of the engines.
• Never mix kerosene, used engine oil, or residual fuels with the
diesel fuel.
• Poor quality fuel can reduce engine performance and / or
cause engine damage.
• Fuel additives are not recommended. Some fuel additives may
cause poor engine performance.
• Use zinc- and sodium-free fuel.
• Do not use the fuel that has been in storage for a long time.
• Do not use the fuel purchased from a non-authorized dealer.
• In the EU, use fuel that satisfies the following conditions
· Sulfur content is 10 mg/kg (10 ppm) or less, and 15 mg/kg
(15 ppm) or less at the final distribution point.
· Cetane number is 45% or more.
· Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) content is 7% v/v or less.
