Fuel

Recommended Fuel

able from most service stations or oxy-
genated fuel containing a maximum
total of 10% of ethanol or methanol
or both. The gasoline used must have
the following recommended minimum
octane number.

OCTANE NUMBER

other fuels. The use of unrecom-
mended fuel can result in vehi-
cle performance deterioration and
damage to critical parts in the fuel
system and engine components.

Fuel Level

ƽ

WARNING

Always stop engine before refu-
eling. Open cap slowly. If a dif-
ferential pressure condition is no-
ticed (whistling sound heard when
loosening fuel tank cap) have ve-
hicle inspected and/or repaired
before further operation. Fuel is
flammable and explosive under
certain conditions. Never use an
open flame to check fuel level.
Never smoke or allow flame or
spark in vicinity. Always work in
a well-ventilated area. Never top
up the fuel tank before placing the
vehicle in a warm area. As tem-
perature increases, fuel expands
and may overflow. Always wipe
off any fuel or oil spillage from the
vehicle.

Engine/Transmission Oil

Recommended Oil

Use 4-stroke mineral-based engine oil
that meets or exceeds the require-
ments for API service classification
SG, SH or SJ. Always check the API
service label on the oil container to be
sure it includes the letters SG, SH or
SJ. Only use high-quality high-deter-
gent oil.
