Fuel quality
A l a b e l i n s i d e t h e fi l l e r fl a p t e l l s y o u
which type of fuel to use.
The petrol engines are designed to
run on RON 95.
However, for better performance
(petrol engine), we recommend
RON 98.
In winter conditions, starting from
c o l d m a y s o m e t i m e s s e e m d i f fi c u l t .
During periods of very cold weather
we recommend the use of 95 or 98
unleaded petrol in preference to
E85 so as to ensure optimum start-
ing performance.
BioFlex engine
A B i o fl e x v e h i c l e i s o n e t h a t h a s
been designed to operate equally
on unleaded petrol (95 or 98 RON)
or on bioethanol (in Europe this is a
m i x t u r e o f 8 5 % e t h a n o l a n d 1 5 %
unleaded petrol, known as E85).
As a result, no matter how much fuel
remains in the tank, and whatever
this fuel may be (unleaded petrol,
E 8 5 o r a m i x t u r e o f t h e t w o ) y o u c a n
refuel at any time with unleaded pe-
trol (95 or 98 RON) or with bioetha-
nol (E85).
There is no problem in running this
vehicle on only unleaded petrol.
If you should put in fuel that is
not suitable for your vehicle’s
engine type, it is imperative to
have the tank drained before
you start the engine again.
