Fuels are highly inflammable.
Fuels are poisonous and harmful to your health
If you or other people come into contact with fuel, observe the following:
Electrostatic charge can cause sparks and thereby ignite fuel vapours.
This discharges any electrostatic charge that may have built up.
Vehicles with a diesel engine:
If you mix diesel fuel with petrol, the flash point of the fuel mixture is lower than that of pure diesel fuel.
While the engine is running, component parts in the exhaust system may overheat without warning.
Fuel that does not conform to the required quality can lead to increased wear as well as damage to the engine and exhaust system.
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.

Paraffin
Kerosene
The vehicle must be unlocked.
Do not get into the vehicle again during the refuelling process. Otherwise, electrostatic charge could build up again.
Observe the notes on operating fluids More.
The filler neck is designed for refuelling at diesel filling pumps.
When the fuel tank is completely empty, refuel with at least 5 litres of diesel.
