Fuels are highly flammable.
Fuels are poisonous and hazardous to your health.
If you or other people come into contact with fuel, observe the following:
Electrostatic charge can ignite fuel vapour.
Vehicles with a diesel engine:
While the engine is running, component parts in the exhaust system may overheat without warning.
Vehicles with a petrol engine:
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could result in damage to the fuel system, the engine and the emission control system.
Fuel of this specification may contain up to 10% ethanol. Your vehicle is suitable for use with E10 fuel.
diesel
regular petrol with an octane number lower than 91 RON
petrol with more than 10% ethanol by volume, e.g. E15, E20, E85, E100
petrol with more than 3% methanol by volume, e.g. M15, M30
petrol with additives containing metal
If you have accidentally refuelled with the wrong fuel:
Vehicles with a diesel engine:
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could result in damage to the fuel system, the engine and the emission control system.
In countries without sulphur-free diesel fuel, refuel using only low-sulphur diesel fuel with a sulphur content less than 50 ppm.
petrol
marine diesel
heating oil
pure bio-diesel fuel or vegetable oil
paraffin or kerosene
If you accidentally refuel with the wrong fuel:
do not switch the ignition on. Otherwise fuel can enter the engine.
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could result in damage to the fuel system and the engine. The repair costs are high.

The vehicle is unlocked.
Pressure in the fuel tank has been released before refuelling.
Do not get into the vehicle again during the refuelling process. Otherwise, electrostatic charge could build up again.
Observe the notes on operating fluids and fuel.
The recommended octane number for your vehicle can be found on the information label in the fuel filler flap.

Opening the fuel filler flap may, in exceptional cases, take up to 15 minutes.
Vehicles with a diesel engine: the tank filler neck is designed for refuelling at diesel filling pumps.
Vehicles with a diesel engine: when the fuel tank is completely empty, top up with at least 5 litres of diesel.
Vehicles with a diesel engine: use a filler neck with a large diameter for vehicles with a diesel engine when topping up fuel from a fuel can. Otherwise, the filler neck cannot slide into the tank.
Close the fuel filler flap before locking the vehicle.

XX,X l Top up AdBlue Emer. op.: max. XXX km/h Start not poss. in XXX km The low AdBlue® level will lead to limited performance from the speed displayed. After the remaining distance displayed has been covered, it will no longer be possible to start the engine. Top up with at least the amount of AdBlue® displayed.

You can see the AdBlue® range and level in the Service menu in the multifunction display.
The AdBlue® range shown depends strongly on the driving style and operating conditions. The actual range can therefore deviate from the calculated range.
You can also store the AdBlue® filler cap in the fuel filler cap holder in the fuel filler flap hinge arm.
The filling process stops when the AdBlue® tank is completely full.
AdBlue® refill canister can be removed when it has been only partially emptied.
If the vehicle could not be started as the AdBlue® tank was empty, it can take up to 60 seconds for the refill to be detected.
Avoid storing AdBlue® refill containers permanently in the vehicle.
If you open the engine bonnet when the engine has overheated or during a fire in the engine compartment, you could come into contact with hot gases or other escaping operating fluids.
Certain component parts in the engine compartment can be very hot, e.g. the engine, the cooler and parts of the exhaust system.
Components in the engine compartment may continue running or start up suddenly, even if the ignition is switched off.
Make sure of the following before performing tasks in the engine compartment:
Windscreen washer concentrate is highly flammable. It could ignite if it comes into contact with hot engine component parts or the exhaust system.
If the windscreen wipers begin to move while you are changing the wiper blades, you can be trapped by the wiper arm.
The wiper arms will move into the replacement position.
When the colour of the maintenance display changes from black to yellow, the wiper blades should be replaced.
The duration until the colour changes varies depending on the usage conditions.

Make sure of the following before performing tasks in the engine compartment:
The engine has an oil dipstick. If not, the engine oil level can be checked only with the on-board computer More .
Depending on the engine, the oil dipstick may be installed in the engine compartment in different locations.
The waiting time before checking the oil level when the engine is at normal operating temperature is five minutes.
oil level is correct: oil level is between and .
oil level too low: oil level is at or below.
oil level too high: oil level is above .
The engine has an oil level sensor. If not, the engine oil level can be checked only with the oil dipstick More.
the engine has been warmed up.
the vehicle is parked on a level surface.
The engine is running at idle speed.
The engine oil level is determined during driving. Determining the engine oil level can take up to 30 minutes with a normal driving style and even longer with an active driving style.
