180 Driving and operating
USE OF FUEL CONTAINING
ETHANOL (PETROL ENGINES)
When purchasing such fuel, we
recommend that the vehicle be
operated on fuel containing no
more than 10% ethanol.
Under no circumstances should
fuel containing more than this
percentage of ethanol be used.
Use of such fuels may result
in engine malfunction, starting
and operating difficulties and
materials degradation. These
adverse effects could result in
permanent damage to the vehicle
and personal injury.
It is also important to note
that when ethanol blends are
used, fuel consumption can be
expected to increase due to the
lower energy content of ethanol.

Caution
USE OF FUEL CONTAINING
ETHANOL (DIESEL ENGINES)
Under no circumstances should
you use diesel fuel containing
ethanol.
Use of such fuels may result
in engine malfunction, starting
and operating difficulties and
materials degradation.
These adverse effects could
result in permanent damage to
your vehicle and personal injury.
The use of fuel containing more
than this percentage of ethanol
may also affect your New Vehicle
Voluntary Warranty to the extent
that Holden considers that the
fuel affects the specifications and
quality of your vehicle.
The vehicle may be refuelled with
E10 and unleaded fuel containing
no ethanol. It is acceptable to mix
these fuels in any combination.
The use of any fuel, other than
the fuel specified, may seriously
damage the vehicle and may void
the warranty. See Fuel types on
page 181. Only clean fuel of good
quality should be used.
