How to transfer spice model to spectre model

I got following spice model for external MOSFET from the vandor, how can I import this into spectre to get the right simulation results.

I added "simulator lang=spice" line at the top, but it doesn't give me the right result.

MODEL REMOVED BY MODERATOR BECAUSE VENDOR MODEL REQUEST PAGE MAKES IT CLEAR THAT THE MODEL MAY NOT BE DISTRIBUTED.

Hello Andrew,
excuse me if I bother you with a problem that was presented and apparently solved many times, but Spectre can't read the spice model of the component BF862. I followed in detail the post
How to Simulate a Subcircuit (Netlist) With Spectre in ADE
/blogs/rf/archive/2009/01/07/tip-of-the-week-how-to-simulate-a-subcircuit-netlist-with-spectre-in-ade.aspx
but when the simulation starts, this error message appears:
Error (SFE-874) : ".../spice_BF862.prm" Unexpected end of line. Expected equals sign, numeric value or string value.

The model of the device can be downloaded freely at
http://www.nxp.com/products/rf/transistors/mosfet/jfets/n_channel_junction_field_effect_transistors_for_general_rf_applications/BF862.html

Any suggestion would be really appreciated.

Best regards
