Information on low outside temperatures

Refuel your vehicle with as much winter diesel as possible at the beginning of winter.

Before changing over to winter diesel, the fuel tank should be empty, if possible. When refilling with winter diesel for the first time, keep the fuel level low, for example at reserve level. The fuel tank can be filled as usual at the next refuelling.
