* The oil volume that should be added when an

engine has never been filled with oil, for example
after overhaul.
** The oil volume that is added when changing oil
without renewing the oil filter. Note: When an oil
filter is renewed, the oil filter volume must be
included.
Note: All values are approximate as the variation

between different engines is great. There can be a
difference of up to 2-3 litres on the same engine
type. The values are on the low side since it is
preferable to top up with engine oil rather than
drain it.

Only the product Scania coolant, or other products
tested to provide proper antifreeze and protection
against corrosion for Scania, may be used in
Scania engines. Products that do not satisfy the

Cooling system
Risk of freezing
IMPORTANT!
The engine should not be subjected to heavy

loads when ice starts to build up in the cooling
system.
As the coolant starts to freeze, the water in the

coolant starts to crystallise and the percentage of
ethylene glycol in the coolant therefore rises. If
freezing produces a great increase in the amount
of ice, circulation problems could arise. There is
no risk of damage by freezing if the content of
Scania antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor is at
least 35% by volume.
Minimal ice formation in the coolant sometimes
causes minor problems without any risk of
damage. For example, the auxiliary heater may
not work for up to 1 hour after the engine has
been started.

If the vehicle is to be driven in a climate which

If the current fuel is not suitable for the
expected temperature, and diesel that meets the
temperature requirements is not available, an
electric fuel heater may be installed as a
precaution. The fuel heater can raise the
temperature by approx. 5C. This is not always
enough if the tank is full of diesel intended for a

must be renewed since the fuel heater is not

Fuel
Fuel properties
Permissible limits for e.g. density, viscosity,
cetane rating and filtration ability of diesel are
indicated in the European standard EN 590.
Density
Fuel density is measured in kg/m3.

Warm fuel has a lower density than cold fuel.
This means that engine power falls as the fuel
temperature rises. Winter fuel generally has a
lower density than summer fuel. The lower
density of winter fuel can also cause a reduction
in engine power.
Viscosity
The viscosity is a measurement of how viscous
or fluid the fuel is. The density and viscosity
normally correspond to one another.
Cetane rating
The cetane rating is a measure of the ability of
the diesel to ignite. If the cetane rating is below
the recommended values according to EN 590,
the vehicle may be difficult to start. In extreme
cases, engine damage may occur.
Filtration ability
This refers to the lowest temperature at which
the diesel can be used without clogging the fuel
filter and fuel lines.
00:16-15
Fuel
Calculating engine power

The engines are factory tested using fuel with a
density of 840 kg/m3.
If fuel of a different density is used, the change
in power can be calculated using the following
formula:
Nekorr = Power with the fuel used

Ne = Specified power
P = Density of the current fuel in
kg/m3 at +15C

Biodiesel EN 14214
Use of biodiesel in Scania engines

Scania approves diesel in accordance with
standard EN 590 for all engines and vehicles.
EN 590 contains 8% Biodiesel EN 14214. Refer
to the Diesel section for more information about
EN 590.
Scania approves the following two options for the
use of fuel containing more than 8% Biodiesel
EN 14214:
1 Biodiesel in accordance with standard
EN 14214.
2 A mixture of EN 590 and EN 14214.
The following vehicles must not be run on
biodiesel in accordance with EN 14214 or a
mixture of EN 590 and EN 14214:
Emergency vehicles.
Vehicles that have downtimes greater than
two months.
Vehicles with low fuel consumption.
Industrial and marine engines.
Buses with HPI engines.
XPI engines that are not prepared for
biodiesel.
Note: Mixtures where more than 8% Biodiesel

EN 14214 is used must be strictly monitored.
Scania recommends that this type of operation
take place in partnership with a national
distributor.
Note: When a mixture of EN 590 and EN 14214

is used, it is important to cooperate with an
experienced fuel supplier. Additives in the various
fuels can give unwanted effects when mixed.

For more information about change
intervals for engine oil, engine oil filters
and fuel filters, refer to the preface of the
relevant inspection programme.
3 Engine oil viscosity grade and level
The viscosity grade of the oil should be
xW-40. However, xW-30 grade oils are
unsuitable due to the fuel dilution effect.
The engine oil level must be checked
regularly.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum level,
the oil must be changed.

Fuel
Properties Consumption, performance and

than diesel. This can affect performance, fuel
economy and exhaust emissions. Measurements

advises against its use. National requirements for
biodiesel EN 14214 can result in the fuel having
different low temperature characteristics in
different markets.
The characteristics of biodiesel EN 14214 start to
deteriorate at +10C. The fuel is more sensitive to
extended periods of cold weather than it is to an
occasional reduction in temperature. The fuel can
exhibit precipitation that blocks filters and fuel
systems. The recommendation is to switch to
diesel that complies with standard EN 590 when
temperatures are about 0C.
Scania recommends the installation of an engine-
customised fuel heater to improve the starting
characteristics. Mixing in diesel EN 590 also
improves cold-start properties.

they can be reported to the factory.

Fuel
Storage of biodiesel EN 14214

Biodiesel has a maximum storage life of
6 months from the date of production to the
expiry date. The fuel is affected by light,
temperature, water, etc. during storage, which
affects its characteristics and service life.
Biodiesel also has lower stability against
oxidation than diesel. This can result in a
thickening of the fuel and blocking of parts of
the fuel system, e.g. the fuel filter. Bacterial
growth can occur during storage in a tank under
unfavourable conditions. Storage in auxiliary
storage tanks should be avoided except when
fuel turnover rates are high, and the cleanliness
of the tank is checked whenever refuelling takes
place.
If the vehicle has been refuelled with Biodiesel
EN 14214 and is stationary for a long period,
condensation water can form in the fuel tank and
result in bacterial growth.

standards, depending on whether natural gas or
biogas is being used:

If the gas quality does not comply with the

specification above, Scania cannot guarantee that the
engine will work and produce the right performance
and emission level.
The engine can be operated with any mixture of
biogas and natural gas that complies with ISO/
