E10 fuel that fulfills these standards.
E10 fuel contains up to 10 %
bioethanol.
Use fuel with the recommended
octane rating 3 200. Use of fuel with
too low an octane rating can reduce
engine power and torque and slightly increases fuel consumption.Caution

that contain metallic compounds
such as manganese-based
additives. This may cause engine
damage.

Use of fuel with too low an octane
rating could lead to uncontrolled combustion and engine damage.

with EN 590.
In countries outside the European
Union use Euro-Diesel fuel with a
sulfur concentration below 50 ppm.

Use of fuel that does not comply to EN 590 or similar can lead to
engine powerloss, increased wear
or engine damage and may affect
your warranty.
