If you are taking the medication “Antabuse” or
other forms of disulfiram for the treatment of
alcoholism, vapor or skin contact with a
gasoline-methanol blend, may cause the same kind
of adverse reaction as drinking an alcoholic
beverage. In sensitive individuals, serious personal
injury or sickness could result. Consult a physician
promptly if you experience an adverse reaction.
Running Out of Fuel
NOTE: Avoid running out of fuel because this
situation may have an adverse effect on modern
powertrain components.
You may need to crank the engine several times
before the fuel system starts to pump fuel from the
tank to the engine.
If the engine does not start, check the fuel pump
shut-off switch and reset as required. See
Fuel
pump shut-off switch in the Index.
WARNING
Never pour fuel in the throttle body or
attempt to start the engine with the air
cleaner removed. Doing so could result
in fire and personal injury.
Fuel Economy
Fuel economy is an estimate of the efficiency of
your vehicle and can be calculated as Miles Per
Gallon (MPG) or Liters Per 100 Kilometers
(L/100K).
Do not calculate fuel economy during your vehicle’s
break-in period. This would not be an accurate
estimate of how much fuel your vehicle will
normally use.
