Thanks Tom for Your help! What does it mean: Kraftwagen Betriebs Stoff? Maybe it was Kanister supposed to be a part of equipment of Kraftwagen, like a tank?

My first thought was engine oil or similat, but than have seen the answer on the canister itself.

It is simply gasoline . Marked so because the canister is originaly a water canister. So stecil marked to avoid 'drinking' gasoline.
