Driving and operating203Fuel
Fuel for petrol engines The petrol engines are compatible
with bio-fuels that conform to current
and future European standards and
and can be obtained from filling
stations:
Petrol that meets the EN228
standard, mixed with a biofuel
meeting the EN15376 standard.
Fuel for diesel engines The Diesel engines are compatible
with bio-fuels that conform to current and future European standards and
and can be obtained from filling
stations:
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester)
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 10% Fatty Acid
Methyl Ester)
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets
standard EN15940 mixed with a
biofuel that meets standard
EN14214 (possibly containing up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The use of B20 or B30 fuel meetingstandard EN16709 is possible in your
Diesel engines. However, this use,
even occasional, requires strict
application of the special servicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions".
For more information, contact a
dealer or a qualified workshop.

204Driving and operatingCaution
The use of any other type of (bio)
fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure
or diluted, domestic fuel etc.) is
strictly prohibited (risk of damage
to the engine and fuel system).
Notice
The only Diesel additives authorised for use are those that meet the
B715000 standard.
Low temperature operation
At temperatures below 0 °C, some
diesel products with biodiesel blends may clog, freeze or gel, which mayaffect the fuel supply system. Starting
and engine operation may not work
properly. Make sure to fill winter
grade diesel fuel at ambient
temperatures below 0 °C.
Arctic grade diesel fuel can be used
in extreme cold temperatures below
-20 °C. Using this fuel grade in warm
or hot climates is not recommended
and may cause engine stalling, poor starting or damage on the fuel
injection system.
Refuelling9 Danger
Before refuelling, switch off
ignition and any external heaters
with combustion chambers.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling.
9 Danger
Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by a
workshop.
A label with symbols at the fuel filler
flap is indicating the allowed fuel
types. In Europe the pump nozzles of the filling stations are marked with
these symbols. Refuel only the
allowed fuel type.
Caution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
Fuel filler flap is located at left rear
side of vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with an
electronic key system, the fuel filler
flap can only be opened if the vehicle
is unlocked. Depending on the
version, release the fuel filler flap by
pushing the flap or pulling at the right bottom corner.

Driving and operating205Petrol and diesel refuellingDepending on the version, place the
key in the lock and unlock the cap.
To open, turn the cap slowly
anticlockwise.
The fuel filler cap can be attached to
the hook on the fuel filler flap.
Place the nozzle in straight position to the filler neck and press with slight
force to insert.
To refuel, switch on pump nozzle.
After the automatic cut-off, the tank can be topped up by operating the
pump nozzle a maximum of two more
times.
Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
To close, turn the fuel filler cap
clockwise until it clicks.
Close the flap and allow it to engage.
Fuel filler cap
Only use genuine fuel filler caps.
Diesel-engined vehicles have special fuel filler caps.
Trailer hitch
General information
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for
trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage e.g. in case of four
bulbs with a power of 5 W each, the
function only detects lamp outage
when only a single 5 W lamp remains
or none remain.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye.
If this is the case use the coupling ball bar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle to have
it on hand if needed.

Vehicle care231Directional tyresDirectional tyres should be mounted
so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel. This also applies to vehicles
with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Tyre pressure 3 263.
The tyre pressure information label
on the left door frame indicates the
original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Always inflate the spare tyre to the
pressure specified for full load.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
Tyre pressures differ depending on
various options. For the correct tyre
pressure value, follow the procedure
below:
1. Identify the engine identifier code.
Engine data 3 260.
2. Identify the respective tyre.
The tyre pressure tables show all
possible tyre combinations 3 263.
For the tyres approved for your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.The driver is responsible for correct adjustment of tyre pressure.9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading to tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds.
9 Warning
For specific tyres the
recommended tyre pressure as
shown in the tyre pressure table may exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Never exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Temperature dependency
The tyre pressure depends on the
temperature of the tyre. During
driving, tyre temperature and
pressure increase. Tyre pressure
values provided on the tyre
