Misfuelling prevention device

470

The fuel filler neck of diesel vehicles can be equipped with a misfuelling prevention device, which is intended to

ensure that the vehicle can only be refuelled using a diesel nozzle.

If the nozzle cannot be inserted correctly into the fuel filler neck, check that you are using a diesel nozzle. Once you

have checked that you are using the correct nozzle, turn the diesel nozzle back and forth while applying gentle

pressure. This can cause the misfuelling prevention to open and enables the vehicle to be filled with fuel. If the

misfuelling prevention device remains closed, go to a suitably qualified professional and have the system checked.

Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

If the vehicle must be refuelled with a spare fuel canister in an emergency, the misfuelling prevention device will not

open

To be able to fill the fuel tank nonetheless, add the diesel fuel in very small quantities and very slowly. Use a suitable

adapter for the spare fuel canister, to make it easier to add the diesel. Appropriate adapters can be obtained from

suitably qualified professionals. Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized

Volkswagen Service Facility.

WARNING

Refueling incorrectly can cause fires, serious or fatal injuries, and vehicle damage.

● Before refueling, check if the fuel standard listed on the fuel pump meets the vehicle specifications.

● Do not refuel with pure biodiesel, gasoline, heating oil or other unsuitable fuels.

● Only use service additives approved by Volkswagen in the correct amounts.

At winter temperatures, diesel engines may make more noise and the exhaust gases can appear

blue.
