CLK 200 CGI, CLK 55 AMG:
Super un leaded sulphur-free petrol with
am inimum octane rating of 98 RON /
88 MON.
i As a very temporary meas ure, you may
also use premium unleaded petrol, 95 RON /
85 MON. This may reduce power and increase
petrol consumption. Av oid the use of full throttle.
! The following mayle ad to increased wear or
engine damage:
! The use ofpetrol which does not com ply with
EN 228
! The useof fuel additives
The use offue lsand /orfuel addit iveswhich
have not been approved may result inlimitation
of warrant yrights. Leaded petrol
You may fill up
with leaded petrol incoun-
tries where unleaded petrol is not availa-
ble. This shortens the interval for replacing
spark pl ugs to 20,000 km.
6 Consult a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre before using leaded petrol.
! Leaded petrol damages the catalytic con-
verter and the Lambda probe.
If you exceed theinte rval for replacing the spark
plu gs, this ma y cause increased wear and engine
damage.
You may obtain furthe rinformation from any
Mercede s-Be nz Service Centre. i
You will generally find inf ormation about the
diesel grade on the filling pump. If not, askth e
filling station attenda nt.
We recommend having the engine oil
change devery 7,500 km in countries
where only diesel fuel with a sulphur con-
tent exceeding 0.5 percent by weight is
available.

we ar or engine damage:
! Diesel which does not compl ywith EN 590
! Marine diesel fuel
! Heating oil
! Vegetable oil methyl ester (VOME)
! Fuel additives ("b iodiesel", FAME fue ls)

sumption
The vehicle will use more fuel than usual in
the following conditions:
! at very low temperatures
! in urban traffic
! on short trips
! when to wing a trailer
! in mountainous terrain
The consumption figures were determined
in acco rdan ce with EUDirec tive
19 99 /1 00/E C under the following
test conditions:
! Urban driv ing conditions are simulated
by frequent pulling awayand stopping.
! Extra-urban dr iving con ditions are sim-
ulated by accelerating from 0 to
120 km /husing all gears.
! Total fuel consumption is cal culated
us ing a weighting of approximately 37%
for urb andriving and approxi mately
63% for extra-urban driv ing. i
The act ual consumption value sof your vehi-
cl ema y deviate from the values given depending
on:
! Driving style
! Road and traffic conditions
! Environmental influences
! Vehicle's operating state
Mercedes-Benz isconstantly updating its
vehicles to the state of the art. Depending
on when the Owner's Manual went to print,
it may be that the current consumption val-
ues are lower than those listed inthe fol-
lowing table. The current consumption
val ues can be found in the COC papers (EC
CE RTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY). These pa-
pers are supplied when the veh icle is deliv-
