Driving And Operating

Only use unleaded fuel that complies

with European standard EN 228 or E DIN

51626-1 or equivalent.

The engine is capable of running with

fuel that contains up to 10% ethanol (e.g.

named E10).

Use fuel with the recommended octane

rating. A lower octane rating can reduce

engine power and torque and slightly

increases fuel consumption.

Note

The only petrol additives authorised

for are those that meet the B715001

standard.

In certain countries, the use of a

particular fuel, e.g. a specific octane

rating, may be required to ensure proper

engine operation.

Caution

In case of misfuelling, do not switch on

ignition.

Refuelling

The fuel filler flap is located at the left

rear side of the vehicle.

Warning

Before refuelling, switch off ignition and

any external heaters with combustion

chambers.

Follow the operating and safety

instructions of the filling station when

refuelling.

Caution

Do not use fuel or fuel additives that

contain metallic compounds such as

manganese-based additives. This may

cause engine damage.

Warning

Fuel is flammable and explosive.

No smoking. No naked flames or

sparks.

The fuel filler flap can only be opened if

the vehicle is unlocked. Release the fuel

filler flap by pushing the flap.

To open, turn the cap slowly

anticlockwise.

If you can smell fuel in your vehicle,

have the cause of this remedied

immediately by a workshop.

Caution

Use of fuel with a lower octane rating

than the lowest possible rating could

lead to uncontrolled combustion and

engine damage.

A label with symbols at the fuel filler

flap is indicating the allowed fuel types.

In Europe, the pump nozzles of filling

stations are marked with these symbols.

Refuel only the allowed fuel type.

The engine specific requirements

regarding octane rating are given in the

engine data overview ðpage167 . A

country-specific label at the fuel filler flap

can supersede the requirement.

Fuel filler cap

Fuel Consumption And CO2

Emissions

Only use genuine fuel filler caps.

General information

All values are combined values under

WLTP condition.

For the values specific to your vehicle,

refer to the Certificate of Conformity

provided with your vehicle or other

national registration documents.

The determination of fuel consumption

is regulated by directive R (EC)

No.715/2007 and No.2017/1151 (in the

latest applicable version).

ICE : The fuel consumption is within a

range of 36 to 56 mpg.

The CO₂emission is within a range of

148 to 111 g/km.

Propulsion types ðpage3

The specification of CO₂emission is also

a constituent of the directive.

The figures given must not be taken as a

guarantee for the actual fuel consumption

of a particular vehicle.

Trailer Hitch

General Information

Caution

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 the pump nozzle.

After the automatic cut-off, the tank can

be topped up by operating the pump

nozzle a maximum of two more times.

Furthermore, fuel consumption is

dependent on personal driving style as

well as road and traffic conditions.

All values are based on the EU base

model with standard equipment.

The calculation of fuel consumption

takes into account the vehicle's kerb

weight, ascertained in accordance with

the regulations. Optional equipment may

result in slightly higher fuel consumption

and CO₂emission levels and a lower

maximum speed.

For new vehicles, only tow a trailer after

having driven at least 620 miles.

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.

Fitting of towing equipment could cover

the opening of the towing eye.

Caution

Wipe off any overflowing fuel

immediately.

To close, turn the fuel filler cap

clockwise.

Close the flap and allow it to engage.

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.
