Do not use diesel to refuel vehicles with a
petrol engine. Even asmall quantity of die-
sel will damage the fuel injection system.
! Only refuel using unleaded petrol with at
least 95 RON/85 MON that conforms to European standard EN 228 or E DIN
51626-1 or an equivalent specification.
Fuel with this specification may contain up
to 10 % ethanol.
! Do not use the following:
R E85 (petrol with 85 % ethanol)
R E100 (100 %ethanol)
R M15 (petrol with 15 % methanol)
R M85 (petrol with 85 % methanol)

Do not mix these fuels with petrol, and do
not use any additives. This can otherwise
lead to engine damage. This does not
include cleaning additives for the removal
and prevention of residue build-up. Only
cleaning additives recommended by
Mercedes-Benzs hould be added to petrol,
see "Additives". You can obtain further
information from any Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
! Use a filter when adding fuel from a fuel
can. The fuel lines and/or the diesel injec-
tion system could otherwise be blocked by
particles from the fuel can.
Usually you will find information about the
fuel grade on the pump. If you cannot find the
label on the petrol pump, ask the filling sta-
tion staff.
i E10 fuel contains up to 10% bioethanol.
Your vehicle is suitable for use with E10
fuel. You can refuel your vehicle using E10
fuel.
i As a temporary measure, if the recom-
mended fuel is not available, you may also
use unleaded petrol with an octane rating
of 91 RON/82.5 MON. This may reduce
engine performance and increase fuel con-
sumption. Avoid driving at full throttle.
