In order to satisfy the exhaust gas legislation, diesel engines that are equipped with an exhaust aftertreatment system may only be operated with a sulphurfree diesel fuel. The operational reliability and durability of the individual exhaust aftertreatment technologies cannot be assured upon failure to comply.

If other fuels are used which do not meet the requirements of the operating manual, the warranty will be voided. The certification measurements for compliance with the legal emission values are made with the test fuels specified in the laws. These correspond to the diesel fuels in accordance with EN590 and ASTMD975 described in the operation manual. No emission values are guaranteed with the other fuels described in this operation manual. The respective fuels prescribed by law must be used to comply with the national emission regulations (e.g. sulphur content). Please contact your DEUTZ partner or see www.deutz.com

Special demands are placed on the cold behaviour (temperature limit value of the filtrability) for winter operation. Suitable fuels are available at filling stations in winter.
For engines with common rail injection, the mixing of petroleum and adding of extra low additives is not permissible.
At low ambient temperatures paraffin discharges can lead to blockages in the fuel system and cause operating faults. Below 0°C ambient temperature use winter diesel (down to -20°C) (filling stations provide this in good time before the cold season starts). ●Special diesel fuels can be used for arctic climates to -44 °C.
