If you do not use the proper fuel filler cap, excessive pressure or

vacuum in the fuel tank may damage the fuel system or cause

the fuel cap to disengage in a collision, which may result in possible

personal injury.

Choosing the right fuel

Use only UNLEADED FUEL. The use of leaded fuel is prohibited by law

and could damage your vehicle.

Do not use fuel containing methanol. It can damage critical fuel system

components.

Your vehicle was not designed to use fuel or fuel additives with metallic

compounds, including manganese-based compounds containing MMT.

Repairs to correct the effects of using a fuel for which your vehicle was

not designed may not be covered by your warranty.

Octane recommendations

Your vehicle is designed to use

“Regular” unleaded gasoline with

pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.

We do not recommend the use of

gasolines labeled as “Regular” that

are sold with octane ratings of 86 or lower in high altitude areas.

Do not be concerned if your engine sometimes knocks lightly. However, if

it knocks heavily under most driving conditions while you are using fuel

with the recommended octane rating, see your dealer or a qualified

service technician to prevent any engine damage.

Supercharged engines

Your vehicle is designed to use

“Premium” unleaded gasoline with

an (R+M)/2 octane rating of 91 or

higher for optimum performance.

The use of gasolines with lower

octane ratings may degrade performance. We do not recommend the use

of gasolines labeled as “Premium” in high altitude areas that are sold

with octane ratings of less than 91.

If your engine knocks under any driving conditions while you are using

fuel with the recommended octane rating, see your dealer or a qualified

service technician to prevent any engine damage.
