Fuel
Important safety notes G
WARNING
Fuel is highly flammable. Fire, naked flames
and smoking are therefore prohibited when
handling fuels.
Switch off the engine before refuelling. G
WARNING
Avoid contact with fuels.
It is hazardous to your health if your skin
comes into direct contact with fuels or you
breathe in fuel vapours.
Tank capacity Total capacity
50.0 l
Of which reserve fuel
Approx-
imately 6.0 l Petrol (EN 228, E DIN 51626-1)
Fuel grade
!
Do no tuse diesel to refuel vehicles with a
petrol engine. Even asmall quantity of die-
sel will damage the fuel injection system.
! Only refuel using unleaded, premium-
grade petrol with at least 95 RON/
85 MON that conforms to European stand-
ard EN 228 or E DIN 51626-1 or an equiv-
alent specification.
! 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)
R M100 (100% methanol)
R Petrol with metallic additives
R Diesel
Do not mix fuels such as this with petrol
and do not use any additives. Doing so may
cause engine damage. This does not include additives for the removal and pre-
vention of residue build-up. Petrol must
only be mixed with additives recommended
by Mercedes-Benz. More informatio nabout
recommended additives can be obtained
from any Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
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 If the recommended fuel is not available,
but only as a temporary measure, you may
also use unleaded petrol with an octane
rating of 91 RON/82.5 MON. This may
reduce engine performance and increase
fuel consumption .Avoid driving at full
throttle.
The quality of the fuel available in some
countries may not be sufficient. Residue
could build up as a result. In such cases,
and in consultation with aMercedes-Benz
Service Centre, the petrol may be mixed
with the additive recommended by
Mercedes-Benz( part no.
A000989254510). You must observe the
notes and mixing ratios specified on the
container.
Information on refuelling (Y page 141).
Additives
! Do not refuel with low grade fuel and do
not use fuel additives that have not been
tested and approved for Mercedes-Benz
vehicles. Otherwise the fuel system could
malfunction or be damaged.
One of the major problems with low-grade
fuel is the creation of carbon deposits during
the process of burning fuel. Mercedes-Benz
recommends that you use fuel brands that
have additives. 312
