Your vehicle is designed to use unleaded gas-
oline only. It is equipped with a fuel tank
filler pipe specifically designed to accept only
a small diameter unleaded gasoline dispens-
ing nozzle.
In the United States, fuel suppliers are
required by law to add detergents to their gas-
oline to minimize fuel-injector clogging and
minimize intake-valve deposits. Detergent
gasoline helps keep your engine in tune and
your emission-control system working prop-
erly.
Your vehicle is designed to operate on
unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane
number of 87 [(MON+RON)/2] or 91 RON.
Gasoline sold at some service stations con-
tains oxygenates such as ethanol, although
the oxygenates may not be identified by those
names. Oxygenates are required in some
areas of the country. Oxygenated fuel can be
used in your vehicle.
A mixture of up to 10 % ethanol (grain alco-
hol) and 90 % unleaded gasoline may be used
in your vehicle, provided the octane number
is at least as high as that recommended for
unleaded gasoline.
Do not operate your vehicle on gasoline con-
taining methanol (wood alcohol). Using this
type of alcohol could adversely affect the

ation mode of the power switch in OFF
and keep flames, sparks, and smoking
materials away from the vehicle. Always
handle fuel in well-ventilated outdoor
areas.
CAUTION
 Using leaded gasoline in your vehicle will
damage the engine, catalytic converter, and
the oxygen sensors. Also, using leaded gaso-
line is illegal, and will void your warranty
coverage of the engine, catalytic converter,
and oxygen sensors.
