The exception refers to the use of biodiesel and is only relevant to an M57 enigine vehicle if the vehicle has the SA201 option. All other M57 variants (inc. mine and probably yours) need cetane 51 and no biodiesel.

Here in NZ the minimum cetane rating is 50, although it is possible to get lower rated diesel fuel (marine diesel for instance).
