15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content 2.7%
weight) should not be used in your vehi-
cle.

formance and damage components ofthe fuel system.
Petrol for cleaner air
To help contribute to cleaner air, we rec-
ommend that you use petrol treated with
detergent additives, which help prevent

commercially available diesel fuel that
complies with EN 590 or comparable

tives, as this will increase wear andcause damage to the engine and fuel
system. The use of non-approved fuels
and / or fuel additives will result in a limi-
tation of your warranty rights. Diesel fuel of 52 to 54 cetane is used in
your vehicle. If two types of diesel fuel
