If the wrong fuel has been added by mis-
take, do not switch on the ignition. If you
do, the fuel could enter the fuel lines. The
tank and the fuel lines would then have to
be emptied. Inform a qualified specialist
workshop and have the tank and the fuel
lines emptied completely.
When you open or close the vehicle with the
key or KEYLESS GO*, the fuel filler flap is
automatically unlocked or locked.
The fuel filler flap is to the rear on the right. 1

(Y page 294). Petrol (EN 228)
! Refuel using only unleaded premium
grade petrol with a minimum octane num-
ber of 95 RON/85 MON conforming to
European standard EN 228.
You could otherwise impair engine output
or damage the engine.
You will find further information about pet-
rol under "Fuel" in the index.
i As a temporary measure, but only when
the recommended fuel is not available, you
may also use regular unleaded petrol,
91 RON/82.5 MO N. Thismay reduce per-
formance and increase petrol consump-
tion. Avoid driving at full throttle.
In some countries, the available petrol qual-
ity may not be sufficient and could cause
coking around the inlet valve. In such
cases, and in consultation with a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre, the petrol
may be mixed with the additive recommen-
ded by Mercedes-Benz (part no.
A000989254510). You must observe the
notes and mixing ratios given on the con-
tainer. Operation
