Choosing the right fuel
Use only UNLEADED FUEL. The
use of leaded fuel is prohibited by
law and could damage your vehicle.
Your vehicle was not designed to
use fuel or fuel additives with
metallic compounds, including
manganeseĆbased compounds
containing (MMT).
Vehicles certified to meet California
emission standards (indicated on
the underhood Vehicle Emission
Control Information label) are
designed to operate on California
reformulated gasolines. If California
reformulated gasoline is not
available when you refuel, your
vehicle can be operated on
nonĆCalifornia fuels. However, even
though your engine will perform
adequately on other gasolines, the
performance of the emission
control devices and systems may be
adversely affected.
Repair of damage caused by using a
fuel for which your vehicle was not
designed may not be covered by
your warranty.
