with E10 or E24 type petrol biofuels (containing
10 % or 24 % ethanol), conforming to European standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)are reser ved exclusively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed
to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol(E10 0 type).
If
you are filling your tank to the top, do notpersist after the third cut- off; this could cause your vehicle to malfunction.The petrol or Diesel engine of your vehicle isfitted with a catalytic conver ter, a device which helps to reduce the level of harmful emissionsin the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, the use of unleaded fuelis compulsory.The filler neck is narrower, admitting unleadedpetrol nozzles only.
