Avoid sudden acceleration. Do not start off with the accelerator pedal pressed all the way down.
Do not brake abruptly. Normal running-in of new brake pads occurs over a 300 km run, during which you should brake smoothly and with moderate intensity if possible.
Do not change the engine oil before the interval or mileage recommended in the maintenance schedule has elapsed.
Do not tow a trailer.
After repairing or replacing the engine, as well as after replacing the brake pads or brake linings, similar restrictions and recommendations must be observed.
Fuel (cars with gasoline engines)
The vehicle's engine runs on high-quality unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 95 or higher (by research method).
In some countries, it is difficult to find gasoline with the required octane rating. In this case, short-term use of gasoline with a lower octane rating is allowed if it does not cause detonation in the engine. This reduces the power and shortens the life of the engine.
Using leaded gasoline will damage the catalytic converter and engine. In addition, such gasoline has a negative impact on the environment.
Fuel (cars with diesel engines)
The car engine runs only on diesel fuel.
Use of RME type fuel (methyl ester derived from rapeseed oil) is prohibited.
Different countries have different quality diesel fuel. Use only clean, high quality diesel fuel.
You can use fuel that meets EN590 and change the fuel according to the season. Choose fuel that suits local conditions and climate. Using unsuitable fuel will shorten the engine life. In this case, the glow plug indicator will flash.
To prevent errors when filling the fuel tank, there is an inscription on the filler cap "DIESEL" ("Diesel").
Warning! Using gasoline on a vehicle equipped with a diesel engine will cause serious damage to the engine.
