Refueling
Vehicle features and options
This chapter describes model-specific equip-
ment, systems, and functions that are currently
available, or may become available in the fu-
ture, even if they are not present in the vehicle.
Additional information:
Vehicle equipment, refer to page 8.
Follow the following when
refueling
General information
Follow the fuel recommendation prior to refuel-
ing.
To also ensure all engine functions under un-
favorable conditions, for instance steep vehi-
cle inclinations, at least 3 US gal/10 liters fuel
should be refueled.
When refueling, hook the filler nozzle com-
pletely into the filler pipe. Lifting up the filler
nozzle while refueling causes:
▷
Premature switching off.
▷ Reduced return of the fuel vapors.
The fuel tank is full when the filler nozzle clicks
off the first time.
Make sure that the fuel cap is closed properly
after refueling, otherwise the emissions warn-
ing light may illuminate.
Follow safety regulations posted at the filling
station.
Additional information:
Fuel quality, refer to page 365.
Safety information
Warning
Simultaneous charging and refueling poses a
risk of fire if a sufficient safety distance from
easily flammable materials is not maintained.
There is a risk of injury or risk of damage to
property. Do not refuel and charge the vehicle
at the same time.
NOTICE
With a range below 30 miles/50 km, the
engine may no longer have sufficient fuel.
Engine functions are not ensured anymore.
There is a risk of damage to property. Refuel
promptly.
NOTICE
Fuels are toxic and aggressive. Overfilling of
the fuel tank can damage the fuel system.
Painted surfaces may be damaged by con-
tact with fuel. Escaping fuel can harm the
environment. There is a risk of damage to
property. Avoid overfilling.
Tank ventilation system
Principle
The vehicle is equipped with a special fuel
tank. The fuel tank is designed for special re-
quirements that arise from hybrid operation of
the vehicle, i.e., alternating drive with combus-
tion engine or electric motor.
