Octane requirements
Premium unleaded gasoline with a CLCor AKI
octane rating of 90 or 92 (95 or 96 RON)
should be used whenever possible. However,
lower octane fuels can be used but
IMPORTANTINFORMATION
DONOTuse leaded fuel! Your engine is
designed to use unleaded fuel ONLY.
Unleaded fuel is essential for proper
operation of the emission control system.
performance and economy may be reduced.
Even a verysmallquantity of leaded fuel will
damage your vehicle’s emission control
system and could invalidate the emissions
warranty. In addition, leaded fuel will damage
the oxygen sensors in the fuel injection
system and also seriouslydamage the catalyst
in the catalytic converter.
NOTE: Federal law requires that gasoline
octane ratings be posted on the pumps. The
Cost of Living Council (CLC) octane rating or
Anti Knock Index (AKI) octane rating shown is
an average of Research Octane Number (RON)
and Motor Octane Number (MON).
Reformulated gasolines and gasolines that
contain detergents, anti-corrosion and
stabilityadditives are recommended - they will
help your vehicle maintain the correct levelof
emissions and engine performance.
Using unleaded fuel with an octane rating
lower than that recommended, can cause
persistent heavy’engine knock’(a metallic
rapping sound). If severe, this can lead to
engine damage.
Fuel system cleaning agents should be
avoided, as many of these products can be
harmful to gaskets and other materials used in
fuel system components.
If heavyengine knock is detected when using
recommended octane rated fuel, or if steady
engine knocking is present whilst maintaining
a steady speed on levelroads, contact your
retailer for advice as soon as possible. Failure
to take measures to eliminate either condition
constitutes misuse of the vehicle!
Driveability
If you encounter driveability, starting and
stalling problems, especiallyin high ambient
temperatures or at high altitude when the
engine is cold, it may be caused by poor
qualityfuel. Try an alternative brand, and if the
problem persists, seek advice from your
retailer.
NOTE: An occasional, light, engine knock
experienced ONLYfor short periods whilst
accelerating or climbing hills is acceptable.
