Fuel Requirements
NOTICE
Always use fresh gaso-
line. Gasoline will oxidize; the re-
sult is loss of octane, volatile com-
pounds, and the production of gum
and varnish deposits which can
damage the fuel system.
Alcohol fuel blending varies by coun-
try and region. Your vehicle has been
designed to operate using the recom-
mended fuels, however, be aware of
the following:
– Use of fuel containing alcohol above
the percentage specified by gov-
ernment regulations is not recom-
mended and can result in the fol-
lowing problems in the fuel system
components:
• Starting and operating difficul-
ties.
• Deterioration of rubber or plastic
parts.
• Corrosion of metal parts.
• Damage to internal engine parts.
– Inspect frequently for the presence
of fuel leaks or other fuel system
abnormalities if you suspect the
presence of alcohol in gasoline ex-
ceeds the current government reg-
ulations.
– Alcohol blended fuels attract and
hold moisture which may lead to
fuel phase separation and can result
in engine performance problems or
engine damage.

XIMUM 10% ethanol. The gasoline

tane requirements:
