CAUTION

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 that stated here.
Other gasohol may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance
problems.

Using unleaded gasoline with an octane number or rating lower than the
level previously stated will cause persistent heavy knocking.
At worst, this will lead to engine damage.

Fuel-related poor driveability

If after using a different type of fuel, poor driveability is encountered (poor
hot starting, vaporization, engine knocking, etc.), 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.
