1. A method for a refueling of a motor vehicle, comprising:
- transmitting by a data-transmission device information between an interface in the vehicle and an interface in a gas pump that includes a fuel delivery hose and a pistol-grip nozzle;
prior to a start of the refueling, transmitting in a wireless manner by the vehicle at least one item of information about one of a type of and a parameter relating to fuels allowed for an optimal operation of the vehicle;
receiving the at least one item of information at the gas pump;
evaluating the at least one item of information with respect to a parameter of a current fuel at the gas pump; and
converting the at least one item of information into an execution signal for a control of the refueling.

Abstract
In a method for the refueling of motor vehicles information, a device for data transmission transmits information between an interface in the vehicle and an interface in the gas pump having a fuel delivery hose and a pistol-grip nozzle, wherein, prior to the start of refueling, the vehicle transmits in at least one item of information about the type or the parameters of the fuels allowed for the optimal operation of the vehicle a wireless manner, which is received at the gas pump and evaluated with respect to the parameters of the current fuel at the gas pump and converted into execution signals for the control of the refueling operation.

7. A device for a refueling of a motor vehicle, comprising:
-
a data-transmission device for a data transmission between an interface of the vehicle and an interface of a gasoline pump having a fuel delivery hose and a pistol-grip nozzle;
a wireless transmitter situated in the vehicle and connected to the data-transmission device, the wireless transmitter transmitting information about one of a type and a parameter of fuels allowed for an optimal operation of the motor vehicle;
a first unit, situated at the fuel pump, for receiving the information about the one of the type and the parameter of the allowed fuels;
a second unit for analyzing the information about the at least one of the type and the parameter of the allowed fuels with respect to a parameter of a current fuel at the gas pump; and
a third unit for converting an output of the second unit into an execution signal for a control of the refueling. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)
