NOTICE
Notice on fuel quality
Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be damaged.
Do not use leaded gasoline.
Leaded gasoline can cause damage to your vehicle’s three-way catalytic converters
causing the emission control system to malfunction.
Do not use gasohol other than the type previously stated.
Other gasohol may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems.
Using unleaded gasoline with an octane number or rating lower than the level previ-
ously stated will cause persistent heavy knocking.
At worst, this will lead to engine damage.
Fuel-related poor driveability
If poor driveability (poor hot starting, vaporization, engine knocking, etc.) is encoun-
tered after using a different type of fuel, discontinue the use of that type of fuel.
When refueling with gasohol
Take care not to spill gasohol. It can damage your vehicle’s paint.
