become brittle and crack, especially when mixed with gasoline. Special

materials and procedures have been developed for flexible fuel vehicles

and the dispensers used by ethanol fuel providers.

Flexible fuel components and standard unleaded gasoline fuel

components are not interchangeable. If your vehicle is not

serviced in accordance with flexible fuel vehicles procedures, damage

may occur and your warranty may be invalidated.

When refueling always shut the engine off and never allow

sparks or open flames near the filler neck. Never smoke while

refueling. Fuel vapor is extremely hazardous under certain conditions.

Care should be taken to avoid inhaling excess fumes.

The flow of fuel through a fuel pump nozzle can produce static

electricity, which can cause a fire if fuel is pumped into an

ungrounded fuel container.

Use the following guidelines to avoid static build-up when filling an

ungrounded fuel container:

• Place approved fuel container on the ground.

• DO NOT fill a fuel container while it is in the vehicle (including the

cargo area).

• Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact with the fuel container while

filling.

• DO NOT use a device that would hold the fuel pump handle in the fill

position.

Choosing the right fuel

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

and could damage your vehicle.

If your vehicle is a flexible fuel vehicle (FFV), use only UNLEADED

FUEL and (E85) FUEL ETHANOL. 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 additives.
