What fuel does my camper need / vehicle refueled incorrectly

To find out what fuel the camper needs, just take a look inside the tank cap.

  • The fuel required by the vehicle is indicated on the cap:

  • Only fill in the requested fuel !!!

What do I do if I have filled up incorrectly !?

In the case of incorrect refueling, the following points must be strictly observed!

  • Never operate the ignition! (Not even in ignition position 1 or 2)
    Once the ignition is activated, part of the fuel is sucked in for the upcoming engine start, which means that the incorrectly filled fuel is already in the engine compartment
  • Leave the vehicle in front of the gas station pump! (Even if this means blocking access to the pump for others)
  • Inform the gas station staff that you have to leave the vehicle in front of the gas pump due to an incorrect refueling.
  • You will find the further procedures in this article under "Assistance in the event of reduced mobility"

This applies to any type of contaminated liquid in the wrong tank, such as AdBlue/DEF in the diesel tank, windshield wiper fluid in the AdBlue/DEF tank etc.
