Fuel requirements
Diesel engine
Diesel fuel
Diesel engines must be operated
only on commercially available diesel
fuel that complies with EN 590 or
comparable standard. (EN stands
for "European Norm"). Do not use
marine diesel fuel, heating oils, or
non-approved fuel additives, as this
will increase wear and cause dam
-
age to the engine and fuel system.
The use of non-approved fuels and /
or fuel additives will result in a lim
-
itation of your warranty rights.
Diesel fuel of above cetane 51 is
used in your vehicle. If two types of
diesel fuels are available, use sum
-
mer or winter fuel properly accord
-
ing to the following temperature
conditions.
䳜Above -5 C (23 F) ... Summer
type diesel fuel.
䳜Below -5 C (23 F) ... Winter type
diesel fuel.
Watch the fuel level in the tank very
carefully: If the engine stops
through fuel failure, the circuits
must be completely purged to
restart.
Vehicle handling instructions
As with other vehicles of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle cor
-
rectly may result in loss of control,
an accident or vehicle rollover.
Specific design characteristics
(higher ground clearance, track,
etc.) give this vehicle a higher centre
of gravity than other types of vehi
-
cles. In other words they are not
designed for cornering at the same
speeds as conventional 2-wheel
drive vehicles.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt
manoeuvres. Again, failure to oper
-
ate this vehicle correctly may result
in loss of control, an accident or
vehicle rollover.
Be sure to read the "Reducing the
risk of a rollover" on page 6-63".
