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

compounds, including manganese-based additives.

Note: Use of any fuel other than those recommended may cause

powertrain damage, a loss of vehicle performance, and repairs may not

be covered under warranty.

Octane recommendations

Your vehicle is designed to use

“Regular” unleaded gasoline with a

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

Some stations offer fuels posted as

“Regular” with an octane rating

below 87, particularly in high altitude areas. Fuels with octane levels

below 87 are not recommended.

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 authorized dealer to

prevent any engine damage.

Fuel quality

If you are experiencing starting, rough idle or hesitation driveability

problems during a cold start, try a different brand of “Regular” unleaded

gasoline. Premium unleaded gasoline is not recommended for vehicles

designed to use “Regular” unleaded gasoline because it may cause these

problems to become more pronounced. If the problems persist, see your

authorized dealer.

Do not add aftermarket fuel additive products to your fuel tank. It

should not be necessary to add any aftermarket products to your fuel

tank if you continue to use high quality fuel of the recommended octane

rating. These products have not been approved for your engine and

could cause damage to the fuel system. Repairs to correct the effects of

using an aftermarket product in your fuel may not be covered by your

warranty.

Many of the world’s automakers approved the World-Wide Fuel Charter

that recommends gasoline specifications to provide improved

performance and emission control system protection for your vehicle.

Gasolines that meet the World-Wide Fuel Charter should be used when

available. Ask your fuel supplier about gasolines that meet the

World-Wide Fuel Charter.
