WARNING
Fuels are poisonous and hazardous to health. There is a danger of injury.
Do not swallow fuel or let it come into contact
with skin, eyes or clothing. Do not inhale fuel
vapours. Keep fuels out of the reach of chil-
dren.
If you or others come into contact with fuel,
observe the following:
R Wash the fuel off any affected areas of skin
with water and soap immediately.
R If you get fuel in your eyes, rinse them thor-
oughly with clean water immediately. Seek immediate medical attention.
R If fuel is swallowed, seek immediate medi-
cal attention. Do not induce vomiting.
R Change any clothing that has come into
contact with fuel immediately.

!
Do not use diesel to refuel vehicles with a
petrol engine. Do not switch on the ignition if
you accidentally refuel with the wrong fuel.
Otherwise, the fuel will enter the fuel system. Even small amounts of the wrong fuel can
result in damage to the fuel system and the
engine. Notify a qualified specialist workshop
and have the fuel tank and fuel lines drained
completely. !
Only refuel using unleaded petrol with at
least 95 ROZ, that conforms to the European standard EN 228 or E DIN or an equivalent
specification.
Fuel of this specification may contain up to
10% ethanol. Your vehicle is suitable for use
with E10 fuel. You may refuel your vehicle
using E10 fuel.
Fuel that does not conform to EN 228 can lead
to increased wear as well as damage to the
engine and exhaust system.
! Only use the fuel recommended. Operating
the vehicle with other fuels can lead to engine
failure.
! Do not use the following:
R E85 (petrol with 85% ethanol)
R E100 (100% ethanol)
R M15 (petrol with 15% methanol)
R M30 (petrol with 30% methanol)
R M85 (petrol with 85% methanol)
R M100 (100% methanol)
R petrol with additives containing metal
R diesel
Do not mix such fuels with the fuel recom-
mended for your vehicle.
Usually you will find information about the fuel
grade on the pump. If you cannot find the label
on the petrol pump, ask the filling station staff.
E 250: as a temporary measure, if the recom-
mended fuel is not available, you may also use
regular unleaded petrol with an octane rating of 93 RON.
All other models: as a temporary measure, if
the recommended fuel is not available, you may
also use regular unleaded petrol with an octane rating of 91 RON. This may reduce engine per-
formance and increase fuel consumption. Avoiddriving at full throttle and sudden acceleration.
Never refuel using fuel with a lower RON.
i In some countries, the available petrol may
not be sufficiently low in sulphur. This fuel can temporarily produce unpleasant odours,
especially on short journeys. As soon as sul-
phur-free fuel (sulphur content < 10 ppm) is
used for refuelling, the odours are reduced.
