3.6L Engine
This engine is designed to meet all emissions
regulations  and  provide  excellent  fuel
economy  and  performance  when  using
high-quality  unleaded  gasoline  with  a
minimum  Research  Octane  Number  (RON)
of 91.
Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not
harmful to your  engine. However, continued
heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause
damage, and  immediate service is required.
Poor  quality  gasoline  can  cause  problems
such  as  hard  starting,  stalling,  and  hesita-
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle. Besides  using  unleaded  gasoline  with  the
proper  octane  rating,  gasolines  that  contain
detergents,  corrosion  and  stability  additives
are recommended. Using gasolines that have
these  additives  may  help  improve  fuel
economy,  reduce  emissions,  and  maintain
vehicle performance.
Poor  quality  gasoline  can  cause  problems
such  as  hard  starting,  stalling,  and  hesita

tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.
Materials Added To Fuel  
Indiscriminate  use  of  fuel  system  cleaning
agents  should  be  avoided.  Many  of  these
materials  intended  for  gum  and  varnish
removal  may  contain  active  solvents  or
similar  ingredients.  These  can  harm  fuel
system gasket and diaphragm materials.
Fuel Icon Identification Compliant To 
EN16942
The  following  symbols  make  it  easier  to
recognize the correct type of fuel to be used
on  your  vehicle.  Before  proceeding  with  the
supply, check the symbols placed inside the
fuel filler flap (if present) and compare them
with  the  symbol  on  the  fuel  pump  (if
present).

FUEL REQUIREMENTS — 
DIESEL ENGINE
Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable
supplier.  If  the  outside  temperature  is  very
low,  the  diesel  fuel  thickens  due  to  the
formation  of  paraffin  clots  with  consequent
defective  operation  of  the  fuel  supply
system.
In  order  to  avoid  these  problems  different
types of fuel are distributed according to the
season: summer type, winter type and arctic
type  (cold/mountain  areas).  If  fueling  with
diesel  fuel  whose  features  are  not  suitable
for the temperature of use, it is advisable to
mix in a suitable additive with the fuel. With
the proportions shown on the container, pour
the additive in the tank before fueling.
When using or parking the vehicle for a long
time  in  the  mountains  or  cold  areas,  it  is
advisable  to  refuel  using  locally  available
fuel. In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over half full.
This  vehicle  must  only  use  premium  diesel
fuel that meets the requirements of EN 590.
Biodiesel  blends  up  to  7%  that  meet  EN
590 may also be used.Diesel  fuel  is  seldom  completely  free  of
water.  To  prevent  fuel  system trouble,  drain
the  accumulated  water  from  the  fuel/water
separator  using  the  provided  fuel/water
separator  drain. If you buy good quality fuel
and  follow  the  cold  weather  advice  above,
fuel  conditioners  should  not  be  required  in
your vehicle. If available in your area, a high
cetane  “premium”  diesel  fuel  may  offer
improved  cold-starting  and  warm-up  perfor
-
mance.

 WARNING!
Do  not  use  alcohol  or  gasoline  as  a
fuel-blending agent. They can  be unstable
under certain conditions and  hazardous  or
explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
 CAUTION!
The  manufacturer  requires  that  you  must
fuel  this  vehicle  with  Ultra  Low  Sulfur
Highway  Diesel  fuel  (15  ppm  Sulfur
maximum)  and  prohibits  the  use  of  Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel.

 CAUTION!
Mixing  of  engine  coolant  (antifreeze)
other  than  specified  Organic  Additive
Technology  (OAT)  engine  coolant  (anti -
freeze),  may  result  in  engine  damage
and  may  decrease  corrosion  protection.
Organic  Additive  Technology  (OAT)
engine  coolant  is  different  and  should
not be mixed with Hybrid Organic  Addi -
tive  Technology  (HOAT)  engine  coolant
(antifreeze) or any “globally compatible”
coolant (antifreeze). If a non-OAT engine
coolant  (antifreeze)  is  introduced  into
the cooling system in an emergency, the
cooling  system  will  need  to  be  drained,
flushed,  and  refilled  with  fresh  OAT
coolant  (conforming  to  MS.90032),  by
an authorized dealer as soon as possible.Do not use water alone or alcohol-based
engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do
not use additional rust inhibitors or anti -
rust  products,  as  they  may  not  be
compatible  with  the  radiator  engine
coolant and may plug the radiator.
This  vehicle  has  not  been  designed  for
use  with  propylene  glycol-based  engine
coolant  (antifreeze).  Use  of  propylene
glycol-based  engine  coolant  (antifreeze)
is not recommended.
The use of products with different spec-
ifications  than  those  indicated  above
could cause damage to the engine that is
not covered by the warranty.
 CAUTION! (Continued)
Use AdBlue® only according to DIN 70 070
and  ISO  22241-1.  Other  fluids  may  cause
damage  to  the  system:  also  exhaust  emis -
sions would no longer comply with the law.
The distribution companies are responsible
for  the  compliance  of  their  product.
Observe  the  precautions  of  storage  and
servicing,  in  order  to  preserve  the  initial
qualities.  The  manufacturer  of the  vehicle
does  not  recognize  any  guarantee  in  case
of malfunctions and damage caused to the
vehicle  due  to  the  use  of  AdBlue®  not  in
accordance with regulations.

FUEL CONSUMPTION AND 
CO
2 EMISSIONS 
The  fuel  consumption  and  CO2  emission
figures declared by the manufacturer are deter -
mined  on  the  basis  of  the  type-approval  tests
laid  down  by  the  applicable  standards  in  the
country where the vehicle is registered.
The type of route, traffic conditions, weather
conditions, driving style, general condition of
the  vehicle,  trim  level/equipment/  accesso -
ries,  use  of  the  climate  control  system,
vehicle load, presence of roof racks and other
situations  that  adversely  affect  the  aerody -
namics  or  wind  resistance  lead  to  different
fuel  consumption  values  than  those
measured. The fuel consumption will only become more
regular  after  driving  the  first  1,864 miles
(3,000 km).
To  find  the  specific  fuel  consumption  and
CO

refer to the data in the Certificate of Confor -
mity (if equipped), and the related documen -
