WARNING
If the fuel tank is accidentally filled with the
wrong fuel, it is ESSENTIALthat you contact
your Land Rover dealer BEFOREattempting
to start the engine.
Serious damage to the catalyst will occur if
leaded fuel is used!
USEONLYRECOMMENDEDFUEL
The RONvalue (octane rating) of petroleum
commonly available at garage forecourts will
varyin different countries. The RONvalues
quoted in ’Generaldata’are MINIMUM
requirements and, while they can be safely
exceeded, no advantage is gained (either in
fuel economy or performance) by using a
higher octane fuel.
Using petrol with a lower octane rating,
however, can cause persistent, heavy’engine
knock’(a metallic rapping noise). If severe,
this can lead to engine damage.
If heavyengine knocking is detected when
using the recommended octane rated fuel, or
if steady engine knocking is present while
maintaining a steady road speed on level
roads, contact your Land Rover dealer for
advice.
FUELFILLER FLAP
The fuel filler is located in the rear right-hand
wing. Press the fuel filler switch (shown in
illustration) to open the filler flap.
The fuel filler switch may only be operated
with the starter key turned to position ’0’; it
will not operate when the engine is running.
NOTE: An occasional, light, engine knock
while accelerating or climbing hills is
acceptable.
