FUEL RECOMMENDATION
84MM6-01E
Fuel Recommendation
68LMT0101
You must use unleaded gasoline with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher (or
RON of 95 or higher if it is stated on the
fuel filler lid). These vehicles are also iden-
tified by a label attached near the fuel filler
pipe that states: “UNLEADED FUEL
ONLY”, “NUR UNVERBLEITES BENZIN”,
“ENDAST BLYFRI BENSIN” or “SOLO
GASOLINA SIN PLOMO”.
If the “RON
95 ” label is attached, you must
use unleaded gasoline with an octane
number (RON) of 95 or higher.
Gasoline/Ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in some areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10% etha-
nol ( ). Make sure this gasoline-ethanol
blend has octane ratings no lower than
those recommended for gasoline.
Gasoline/Methanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and methanol
(wood alcohol) are also commercially
available in some areas. DO NOT USE
fuels containing more than 5% methanol
under any circumstances. Fuel system
damage or vehicle performance problems
resulting from the use of such fuels are not
the responsibility of SUZUKI and may not
be covered under the New Vehicle War-
ranty.
Fuels containing 5% or less methanol may
be suitable for use in your vehicle if they
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibi-
tors.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
are using a gasoline/alcohol blend, you
should switch back to unleaded gasoline
containing no alcohol.
EXAMPLE
NOTICE
The fuel tank has an air space to
allow for fuel expansion in hot
weather. If you continue to add fuel
after the filler nozzle has automati-
cally shut off or an initial blowback
occurs, the air chamber will become
full. Exposure to heat when fully
fuelled in this manner will result in
leakage due to fuel expansion. To
prevent such fuel leakage, stop filling
after the filler nozzle has automati-
cally shut off, or when using an alter-
native non-automatic system, initial
vent blowback occurs.
NOTICE
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alco-
hol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
