normally be found on the fuel pump.
Please contact gas station personnel in
case labels on the pump cannot be found.
For more information on gasoline, see
“Premium unleaded gasoline”
( Y page 207) and “Fuel requirements”
( Y page 208), or contact an authorized
smart center.
Check regularly and before a long trip
For information on quantities and
requirements of operating agents, see
“Service fluids and capacities”
( Y page 204).
Check the following:
R Engine oil level ( Y page 108)
R Tire inflation pressure ( Y page 116)
R Coolant level ( Y page 111)
R Vehicle lighting ( Y page 164)
R Windshield washer system ( Y page 112)
R Brake fluid ( Y page 113)
Engine compartment
Engine compartment cover
Open the engine compartment cover to
check the engine oil level and if necessary,
to add engine oil.
GWarning!
High outside temperature, stop-and-go
traffic, driving on long uphill grades or
driving at high engine speed may increase
the temperature in the engine
compartment. Therefore, the engine
compartment cover and parts in the area
around the engine compartment cover may
be hot. Parts of the engine can become very
hot. To prevent burns, let the engine cool
off completely before touching the engine

a light load such as two persons and no
cargo.
R Do not exceed 2
/ 3 of maximum
accelerator pedal position if the
vehicle is fully loaded or operating in
mountainous terrain.
Fuel requirements
Only use premium unleaded fuel. The octane
number (posted at the pump) must be 91 min.
It is an average of both the
R esearch Octane
N umber (RON) and the Motor Octane Number
(MON): (RON+MON)/2. This is also known as
the ANTI‑KNOCK INDEX.
Unleaded gasoline containing oxygenates
such as ethanol, IPA, IBA and TBA can be
used provided the ratio of any one of these
oxygenates to gasoline does not exceed
10%; MTBE must not exceed 15%.
The ratio of methanol to gasoline must not
exceed 3% plus additional cosolvents.
Using mixtures of ethanol and methanol is
not allowed. Gasohol, which contains 10%
ethanol and 90% unleaded gasoline, can be
used.
These blends must also meet all other fuel
requirements, such as resistance to spark
knock, boiling range, vapor pressure, etc.
Gasoline additives
A major concern among engine
manufacturers is carbon build-up caused
by gasoline. smart recommends only the use
of quality gasoline containing additives
that prevent the build-up of carbon
deposits.
After an extended period of using fuels
without such additives carbon deposits can
build up, especially on the intake valves
and in the combustion area, leading to
engine performance problems such as:
R Warm-up hesitation
R Unstable idle
R Knocking/pinging
R Misfire
R Power loss
In areas where carbon deposits may be
encountered due to lack of availability of
gasolines which contain these additives,
the use of smart approved additives is
recommended. Contact an authorized smart
center for a listing of approved products.
Follow directions on the product label.
Do not blend other fuel additives with fuel.
This only results in unnecessary costs and
may be harmful to the engine operation.
! Damage or malfunction resulting from
poor fuel quality or from blending
additional fuel additives other than
those tested and approved by us for use
on smart vehicles are not covered by the
smart Limited Warranty.
