Essence détergente Top Tier

Volvo endorses the use of "TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline" where available to help maintain engine performance and reliability. TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline meets a new standard jointly established by leading automotive manufactures to meet the needs of today's advanced engines. Qualifying gasoline retailers (stations) will, in most cases, identify their gasoline as having met the "TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline" standards.

Compositions du carburant

Do not use gasoline that contains lead or manganese as a knock inhibitor, and do not use lead additives. Besides damaging the exhaust emission control systems on your vehicle, lead has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer.

De nombreux carburants contiennent du benzène comme solvant. Le benzène non brûlé est fortement associé à certaines formes de cancer. Si vous vivez dans une région où vous devez faire le plein vous-même, prenez des précautions. Celles-ci peuvent comprendre :

  • vous tenir à l'écart de l'orifice de remplissage pendant le ravitaillement
  • refueling only at gas stations with vapor recovery systems that fully seal the mouth of the filler neck during refueling
  • Portez des gants en néoprène pour manipuler le pistolet de remplissage.

Utilisation d'additifs

With the exception of gas line antifreeze during winter months, do not add solvents, thickeners, or other store-bought additives to your vehicle's fuel, cooling, or lubricating systems. Overuse may damage your engine, and some of these additives contain organically volatile chemicals. Do not needlessly expose yourself to these chemicals.

Nécessite une conduite

In demanding driving conditions, such as when towing a trailer or driving in hot weather or for prolonged periods at high altitudes, it may be a good idea to switch to a higheroctane fuel (AKI1 91 or higher) or to switch to another brand of gasoline in order to fully utilize the vehicle's engine capacity and optimize traction.

1 AKI (Anti Knock Index) is an average value of RON (Research Octane Number) and MON (Motor Octane Number) - (RON)+(MON)/2
