102GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
DIESEL ENGINES
The vehicle must only
be filled with diesel fuel
for motor vehicles, in
compliance with European Spec-
ification EN590. The use of other
products or mixtures may ir-
reparably damage the engine
with invalidation of the warran-
ty due to the damage caused. In
the event of accidentally filling
with another type of fuel, do not
start the engine and empty the
tank. If the engine has been run
even for only a very short time,
in addition to the tank, it is also
necessary to drain out the whole
fuel circuit.AT THE FILLING
STATION
PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only.
However, to avoid mistakes, the fu-
el filler is too small for the leaded
petrol pump.
Octane rating (R.O.N.) must not be
lower than 95.
fig. 151
F0D0193m
Never put even the tini-
est amount of leaded
petrol in the fuel tank of
your Ducato even in an emer-
gency. You would damage the
catalytic converter beyond re-
pair.
An inefficient catalytic
converter will allow
harmful exhaust fumes to
be emitted and thus contribute
to air pollution.
