WARNING
Instructions for filling the reserve canister
Never fill the reserve can inside the vehicle.
Never place the reserve can on the vehicle.
Always place the reserve can on the floor.
We do not recommend carrying any fuel canisters in your vehicle for safe-
ty reasons. In the event of an accident, these canisters can become dam-
aged and fuel may escape – risk of fire!
CAUTION
The fuel tank is full as soon as the pump nozzle switches off for the first
time, provided the nozzle has been operated properly. Do not continue refuel-
ling.
Be careful when filling diesel fuel from the spare canister and then do this
slowly and cautiously – danger of contaminating the body.
Note
The fuel tank has a capacity of about 55 litres, containing a reserve of approx.
7 litres.

ethanol (E10).
Unleaded petrol 95/min. 92 and 93 RON/ROZ
We recommend using unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 95 RON. Unlea-
ded petrol with the octane ratings 92 or 93 RON can also be used, but may re-
sult in a slight loss in performance and slightly increased fuel consumption.

Use unleaded fuel with the octane rating 95 RON or higher.
