Diesel fuel fluidity decreases at low
temperatures due to the paraffin it
contains and can clog up the fuel filter.
To avoid possible problems, fuelling
stations usually sell summer, winter or
arctic (mountain/cold areas) fuel ac-
cording to the period of the year. If refuelling with diesel fuel not suitable
for the temperature of use, add
DIESEL MIXto the fuel, in the pro-
portions written on the container. Pour
the antifreeze into the fuel tank before
the fuel.
DIESEL MIXantifreeze is effective
only if it is added before the cold be-
gins to take effect on the fuel. Adding
the product after will not have any ef-
fect.
