Petrol engined vehicles
Octane rating
The minimum octane rating for fuel used is 91
RON. The vehicle will run on lower ratings, but
it may cause pronounced engine knock or
pinking. If the pinking is severe it can cause
damage to the engine, fuel, and emission
control systems.
Note: Occasional, light , engine knock
experienced while accelera ting or climbing hills
is acceptable.
WARNINGS
Petroleum gasses are highly
flammable, have a low flash point, and
are explosive, especially in confined
spaces. Avoid exposing the gasses to any
potential sources of ignition as the resulting
fire and explosion may cause serious injuries
and/or death.
Only use containe rs specifically
designed for carrying fuel, and alway
remove them from the vehicle to fill
them. Failure to do so may result in spillage,
and cause a fire.
Switch off the engine when refuelling,
as it is both a source of extreme
temperatures, and electrical sparks.
The resulting fire a nd explosion may cause
serious injury and death.
Switch off any personal electronic
devices such as mobile phones, or
music players. They have the potential
to cause electrical sparks. The resulting fire
and explosion may caus e serious injury and
death.
Do not smoke, use a naked flame, or
cause sparks. The resulting fire and
explosion may caus e serious injury
and death.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Overfilling
may cause spillage when the vehicle is
driven. Spillage may also occur if the
fuel expands in high ambient temperatures.
CAUTIONS
Do not use leaded fuels, lead
substitutes, or fuel additives. Doing so
can cause damage to the engine, fuel,
and emission control systems.
Only use high quality petrol, as using
lower quality fuels ca n cause damage to
the engine, fuel, and emission control
systems.
Fuel system cleaning agents should not
be used, unless approved by Land
Rover. Unapproved products may be
harmful to fuel system components on your
vehicle.

Alternative fuels for petrol engines
Ethanol
Fuels containing up to 10% Ethanol (grain
alcohol) may be used. Ensure that the fuel has
octane ratings no lower than those
recommended for unleaded fuel. Most drivers
will not notice any opera ting difference with
fuel containing Ethanol . If a difference is
detected, the use of c onventional unleaded fuel
should be resumed.
Methanol
Some fuels contain Methanol (Methyl or wood
alcohol). If you use fuel s containing Methanol
the fuels must also contain co-solvents and
corrosion inhibitors for Methanol. Also, do not
use fuels which contain more than 3%
Methanol even if they contain co-solvents and
corrosion inhibitors. Fuel system damage or
vehicle performance problems resulting from
the use of such fuels is not the responsibility of
Land Rover, and may not be covered under the
warranty. Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE)
Unleaded fuel containing an oxygenate known
as MTBE can be used provided that the ratio of
MTBE to conventional fuel does not exceed
15%. MTBE is an Ether based compound
derived from Petroleum, which has been
specified by several refi ners as the substance
to enhance the Octane rating of fuel.
Reformulated gasoline
Several petroleum companies have announced
the availability of refo rmulated fuels. These
fuels are specially formulated to further reduce
vehicle emissi ons. Land Rover fully supports
all efforts to protect and maintain ambient air
quality, and encour ages the use of
reformulated gasoline where available.
Diesel engined vehicles
Note: Land Rover vehicle's are capable of
running with up to a 5% blend of bio-diesel in
accordance with European Standard EN590.
Sulphur content
The Sulphur content of diesel used in Land
Rover vehicles shoul d not exceed 0.3%.
In some countries dies el will contain higher
levers of Sulphur, whic h will require reduced
service intervals to reduce the effects on
engine components. If in doubt contact a local
Land Rover Dealer/Aut horised Repairer for
advice.
CAUTIONS
This vehicle is not suitable for use with
fuels containing more than 10%
Ethanol.
Do not use E85 fuels (85% Ethanol
content). Equipment necessary for the
use of fuels containing more than 10%
Ethanol is not fitted to this vehicle. If E85 fuels
are used, serious engine and fuels system
damage will occur.
CAUTION
Wherever possible avoid using fuel
containing Methanol.
