Refueling
G
Warning!
Gasoline is highly flammable and poison-
ous. It burns violently and can cause seri-
ous personal injury.
Never allow sparks, flames or smoking
materials near gasoline!
Turn off the engine before refueling.
Whenever you are around gasoline, avoid
inhaling fumes and any skin or clothing con-
tact. Extinguish all smoking materials.
Direct skin contact with fuels and the inha-
lation of fuel vapors are damaging your
health.
G
Warning!
Overfilling of the fuel tank may create pres-
sure in the system which could cause a gas
discharge. This could cause the gas to
spray back out when removing the fuel
pump nozzle, which could cause personal
injury.
!
Never refuel vehicles with gasoline engine
with diesel fuel. Even small amounts of die-
sel fuel will damage the fuel system and
engine. Damage resulting from the use of
non-approved fuels or fuel additives or
resulting from mixing gasoline with diesel
fuel is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.
!
If you have accidentally filled the tank
with incorrect or non-approved fuel, do not
switch on the ignition. Otherwise the incor-
rect or non-approved fuel will get into the
fuel lines. The fuel system must be drained
completely. Contact an authorized Mer-
cedes-Benz Center to have the fuel system
drained completely.
!
To prevent damage to the catalytic con-
verters, only use premium unleaded gaso-
line in this vehicle.
Any noticeable irregularities in engine oper-
ation should be repaired promptly.
Otherwise, excessive unburned fuel may
reach the catalytic converter, causing it to
overheat and potentially start a fire.
i
Only use premium unleaded gasoline with
a minimum Posted Octane Rating of 91
(average of 96 RON / 86 MON).
Information on gasoline quality can nor-
mally be found on the fuel pump. Please
contact gas station personnel in case
labels on the pump cannot be found.

mium unleaded gasoline” (Y page 354),
