Fuel specifications
Observe the following when refueling
Take all precautionary measures and observe all applicable regulations when handling fuel; otherwise, there is a danger of personal injury and property damage.<
Do not overfill the fuel tank; otherwise, overflowing fuel can cause damage to the
environment and the vehicle.< When refueling, insert the filler nozzle com- pletely into the filler pipe. Avoid lifting the filler nozzle while filling the tank, as that would lead to > Premature pump shutoff > Reduced efficiency of the fuel-vapor
recovery system.
The fuel tank is full when the filler nozzle clicks off the first time.
Fuel tank capacity
If the range displayed is less than 30 miles/50 km, be sure to refuel; other- wise, engine functions are not guaranteed and damage could occur.< Approx. 13.2 US gal/50 liters, including the reserve capacity of 2.1 US gal/8 liters.
Gasoline For optimum fuel efficiency, the gasoline should be free of sulfur or as low in sulfur as possible. Fuels that are labeled at the pump as containing metal may not be used.
Do not fill the tank with leaded gasoline or gasoline that contains metal additives,
such as manganese or iron; otherwise, long term damage to the catalytic converter or other components may result.< Fuels with a maximum ethanol content of up to 10%, that is, E10, can be used. The ethanol should meet the following quality standards: US: ASTM 4806-xx CAN: CGSB-3.511-xx xx: Always observe currently valid standards.
Do not fill the tank with E85, i.e. fuel con- taining 85% ethanol, nor with FlexFuel. Otherwise, the engine and fuel supply system will be damaged.< The engine is knocking regulated. Therefore, different grades of gasoline can be used for refueling.
Recommended gasoline grades The manufacturer of your MINI recommends: > AKI 91. > John Cooper Works AKI 93.

Refueling
Minimum grade The manufacturer of your MINI recommends AKI 89.
Do not use any gasoline below the speci- fied minimum fuel grade. Otherwise, the
engine could be damaged.< If you use gasoline with this minimum AKI rating, the engine may produce knocking sounds when starting at high external temperatures. This has no effect on the engine life.
The use of poor-quality fuels may result in harmful engine deposits or damage. Addi- tionally, problems relating to driveability, start- ing and stalling, especially under certain envi- ronmental conditions such as high ambient temperatures and high altitudes, may occur. If driveability problems are encountered, we recommend switching to a high quality gasoline brand and a higher octane grade - AKI number - for a few tank fulls. To avoid harmful engine deposits, it is highly recommended to purchase gasoline from BP or Top Tier retailers. Failure to comply with these recommendations may result in the need for unscheduled mainte- nance.<

Tire inflation pressures
Information for your safety It is not merely the tires' service life, but also driving comfort and, to a great extent, driving safety that depend on the condition of the tires and the maintenance of the specified tire pressure.
Checking pressure
Check the tire inflation pressure regularly and correct it, if necessary: at least twice a month and before starting long trips. If you fail to observe this precaution you may be driving on tires with incorrect tire pressures, a condition that can not only compromise your vehicle's driving stability, but also lead to tire damage and the risk of an accident. Do not drive with deflated, i.e. flat tires, except when using run- flat tires. A flat tire will seriously impair your vehicle's handling and braking response. Attempts to drive on a flat tire can lead to loss of control over the vehicle.< Check the tire inflation pressures only on cold tires. This means after a maximum of 1.25 miles/ 2 km driving or when the vehicle has been parked for at least 2 hours. When tires are warm, the tire inflation pressure is higher.
After adjusting the tire inflation pressure, reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor, page 87,
or reset the Tire Pressure Monitor, page 90.<
Checking the tire inflation pressure of the compact tire
A valve extension for checking the inflation pressure is located behind the bumper.
Inflation pressure specifications The tables below provide all the correct inflation pressures for the specified tire sizes at ambient temperature.
The tire inflation pressures apply to the tire sizes approved and the tire brands recommended by the manufacturer of your MINI. Your MINI dealer will be glad to advise you.< For correct identification of the right tire inflation pressures, observe the following: > Tire sizes for your vehicle > Maximum allowable driving speed
Tire inflation pressures for driving up to 100 mph or 160 km/h For normal driving up to 100 mph or 160 km/h and to achieve optimum driving comfort, adjust pressures to the respective tire inflation pres- sures listed on the following pages in the col- umns for traveling speeds up to a maximum of 100 mph or 160 km/h. These tire inflation pressures can also be found on the driver's side door pillar when the driver's door is open.

Uniform Tire Quality Grading Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: Tread wear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
DOT Quality Grades Tread wear Traction AA A B C Temperature A B C
All passenger car tires must conform to Federal Safety Requirements in addition
to these grades.<
Tread wear The tread wear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified gov- ernment test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1γ) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, how- ever, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement, as measured under con- trolled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead braking trac- tion tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.<
Temperature The temperature grades are A, the highest, B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sus- tained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent lev- els of performance on the laboratory test wheel that exceed the minimum required by law. The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.<
