Fuel consumption information
The correct fuel grade for your engine is shown on a sticker located on the inside of the fuel filler flap
⇒ fig. 162.
Bad or poor quality fuel reduces operating performance, efficiency and service life of the engine. If you
notice any symptoms like rough engine idle or performance or “bucking”, immediately reduce the
vehicle speed, accelerate slowly and keep the engine speed in the middle of the rpm range. Avoid
high rpm and rapid acceleration. If these symptoms should appear right after refueling, switch off the
engine. In both cases contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service
Facility to have the engine checked.

WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fuel can cause fire, explosion, and severe burns.
x Fuel is highly explosive and flammable and can cause severe burns and other injuries.
x Heed applicable safety warnings and obey local fuel handling regulations.
x Always make sure the fuel cap is screwed on all the way. This keeps fuel from spilling out
and from evaporating.
x Failure to shut the engine off while refueling and/or to insert the pump nozzle fully into the
vehicle's filler neck could cause fuel overflow and fuel spray. Fuel spray and overflowing fuel
are dangerous because they can cause fire or serious injury.
x For safety reasons, the engine must be turned off when refueling.
x Never get back into your vehicle while refueling. If in exceptional circumstancesyo u must
get back in your vehicle while refueling, make certain that you close the door and touch metal
to discharge static electricity before touching the filler nozzle again. Static electricity can
cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors released during refueling.

consumption and prevent engine damage.
