Practical tips
take longer than normal (up to one minute)
t
o start firing.
For the sake of the environment

o overflow if it becomes warm.
Note
There is no emergency mechanism for the
manual r
elease of the fuel tank flap. If nec-
essary, request assistance from special-
ised personnel.

de
vice that prevents the insertion of the
wrong fuel hose
1)
. It is only possible to re-
fuel with Diesel nozzles.
●
If the pump nozzle is worn, damaged, or if
it is very small, it is possible that it will not
be able to open the protective device. Be-
fore trying to insert the pump nozzle by
turning it, try a different pump or request
specialist help.
●
If you fill the tank from a reserve fuel can-
ister, the protective device will not open.
One way to resolve this is to pour the fuel in
v
ery slowly.

when choosing the fuel.
Petrol with ethanol (“E” stands for Etha-

age of ethanol in the petrol. “E5” means,
for example, an ethanol ratio of 5% max.
Diesel according to EN590 standard. The
number indicates the maximum percent-
age of Biodiesel in the fuel. “B7” means a
maximum of 7% Biodiesel.
Synthetic diesel according to EN15940
