By repositioning the octane corrector connector, the engine can be adapted to the quality of the fuel used. On other engines, this is done automatically by means of detonation control. To reposition the ignition timing, the octane corrector connector, located in the engine compartment near the left shock absorber strut, is repositioned to match the fuel used.

Changing the factory setting is only advisable if it is not possible to fill the car with fuel specified by the Specifications, for example, when abroad. Do not operate the car on fuel with an octane number lower than the value set on the corrector. In this case, it is necessary to reposition the plug, otherwise the engine may be damaged.
