Your vehicle is designed to use unleaded gas-

oline only. It is equipped with a fuel filler

tube especially designed to accept only a

small diameter unleaded gasoline dispensing

nozzle.

In the United States, fuel suppliers are

required by law to add detergents to their gas-

oline to minimize fuel-injector fouling and

minimize intake-valve deposits. Detergent

gasoline helps keep your engine in tune and

your emission-control system working prop-

erly.

Your vehicle is designed to operate on

unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane

number of 87 [(MON+RON)/2], or 91 RON.

Your vehicle is designed to operate on pre-

mium grade unleaded gasoline having a mini-

mum octane number of 93 [(MON+RON)/2]

or higher for optimum performance. In case

premium grade unleaded gasoline 93

[(MON+RON)/2] is not available, unleaded

gasoline number of 91 [(MON+RON)/2] can

be used. However, the performance level is

reduced.

In order to maintain exhaust system durabil-

ity, premium unleaded gasoline having an

octane number of at least 91

[(MON+RON)/2] must be used.

If the premium grade unleaded gasoline num-

ber of 91 [(MON+RON)/2] or higher is not

available on journey, etc., regular unleaded

gasoline having an octane number of 87

[(MON+RON)/2] can be used temporarily as

an emergency measure.

MON: Motor Octane Number

RON: Research Octane Number

Gasoline sold at some service stations con-

tains oxygenates such as ethanol, although

the oxygenates may not be identified by those

names. Oxygenates are required in some

areas of the country. Such fuel can be used in

your vehicle.

A mixture of up to 10 % ethanol (grain alco-

hol) and 90 % unleaded gasoline may be used

in your vehicle, provided the octane number

is at least as high as that recommended for

unleaded gasoline.

WARNING

 Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-

sive. You could be burned, seriously

injured or killed when handling it. When-

ever you refuel your vehicle, stop the

engine and keep flames, sparks, and

smoking materials away from the vehicle.

Always handle fuel in well-ventilated out-

door areas.

CAUTION

 Using leaded gasoline in your vehicle will

damage the engine, catalytic converter, and

the oxygen sensors. Also, using leaded gaso-

line is illegal, and will void your warranty

coverage of the engine, catalytic converter,

and oxygen sensors.
