! Refuel using only unleaded super grade
petrol with a minimum octane number of
98 RON/88 MON conforming to European
standard EN 228.
Otherwise, you could impair engine output
or damage the engine.
i If the recommended fuel is not available
and only as a temporary measure, you may
also use unleaded premium-grade petrol,
95 RON/85 MON. This may reduce engine performance and increase fuel consump-
tion. Avoid driving at full throttle.
In some countries, the fuel grade available
may not be adequate and could cause cok-
ing around the inlet valve. In such cases,
and in consultation with
aMercedes-Benz
Service Centre, the petrol may be mixed
with the additive recommended by
Mercedes-Benz( part no.
A000989254510). You must observe the
notes and mixing ratios specified on the
container.
! In emergencies, and only when the rec-
ommended fuel is not available, you may
also use standard unleaded petrol,
91 RON/82.5 MON.
However, using this fuel results in consid-
erably higher petrol consumption and sig-
nificantly reduced engine output. Avoid
driving at full throttle.
If no fuel other than regular petrol with
91 RON/82.5 MON or a lower grade is per-
manently available, you should have the
vehicle adapted to run on this fuel by the
local after-sales service.
