If you should put in fuel that is not suitable for your vehicle's engine type, it is imperative to have the tank drained be fore you start the engine again.
While you are refuelling, the engine must be stopped and the ignition switched off.
For a petrol engine with a cata-lytic converter, unleaded fuel is compulsory.

The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, domestic fuel oil, etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel circuit).
