Refuelling when driving abroad
When refuelling in another country, please note that country-specific expressions are used
for natural gas vehicles.
German Erdgasfahrzeuge Erdgas als Kraftstoff
English NGVs = Natural Gas Vehicles CNG = Compressed Natural Gas
French Véhicules au gaz naturel

Véhicules GNVGNV = Gaz Naturel (pour) Véhicules

CGN = carburant gaz naturel
Italian Metano auto Metano (per auto)

Fuel selector switch, natural gas 3
Switch
Y can be used to switch between
petrol and natural gas operation. A
changeover is not possible during a high
load, such as powerful acceleration or full
throttle. The status of the LED indicates
which type of fuel is in use.
As soon as the natural gas tank is empty,
the vehicle automatically switches to petrol
operation until the ignition is switched off.
This is indicated by prolonged flashing of
the LED.
6 Natural gas
operation=LED off.
Petrol operation = LED comes on.

114 Driving and operationIf the natural gas tank is then not refilled,
petrol operation must be manually
selected the next time the engine is started.
This is necessary in order to prevent
damage to the catalytic converter
(overheating due to irregular fuel supply).
If the switch is pressed several times within
a brief period of time, a changeover
inhibitor is activated. The engine continues
with the current type of fuel. The inhibitor
remains active until the ignition is switched
off.
Minor power and torque losses are to
be expected during petrol operation,
therefore adjust driving style (e.g.
overtaking) and vehicle load (e.g. through
trailer load) accordingly.
Every 6 months, run the petrol tank down
to the reserve zone before refuelling. This is
necessary for petrol operation to obtain
the required system functionality and fuel
quality.Note:
Refuel and operate only w i t h f u e l o f a t l e a s t
95 octane (RON). Upon accidental
refuelling with petrol of an
octane rating (RON) less than 95, avoid
driving with fuel load (e.g. heavy
acceleration, full throttle), allow the tank to
reach the reserve zone and refuel with the
correct petrol.
In order to prevent corrosion in the tank,
please refuel the vehicle to the maximum
level at regular intervals.

Catalytic converter, engine
exhaust Catalytic converter
The catalytic converter reduces the
amount of harmful substances in the
exhaust gas, such as carbon monoxide
(CO), hydrocarbons, (CH) and nitrous
oxide (NO
x).
Fuel grades other than those listed on
3110, 184 (e. g. LRP = Lead Replacement
Petrol or leaded fuel) could damage the
catalytic converter or electronic
components.
Caution
Damage to the catalytic converter or the
vehicle may result if the following points
are not observed.
