26nFuel specifications
Tire inflation pressure
The engine uses lead-free gasoline
only.
Check tire inflation pressures
regularly – at least every two
weeks and before beginning a longer
trip. Incorrect tire pressure can other-
wise lead to tire damage and acci-
dents.<
Required fuel:
> Premium Unleaded Gasoline,
min. 91 AKI
AKI = Anti Knock Index
Do not use leaded fuels. The use
of leaded fuels will cause perma-
nent damage to the system's oxygen
sensor and the catalytic converter.<
The inflation pressures are indicated on
a label attached to the B-pillar behind
the driver's door (visible with door
open).
Check tire pressures
All pressure specifications are indicated
in psi (kilopascal) for tires at ambient
temperature (refer also to the next
page).
After you have corrected the tire
inflation pressure, reactivate the
Tire Pressure Warning (RDW) system.
Refer to page 88.<
