FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Gasoli\fe e\fgi\fe (\bodel with three–way
catalyst)
CAUTION:
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gaso-
line will damage the three-way catalyst.
Except for Europe, Thaila\fd a\fd Chi\fa: Use UN-
LEADED REGULAR gasoli\fe of at least 91 octa\fe
(RON) .
For Europe: Use UNLEADED PREMIUM gasoli\fe of at
least 95 octa\fe (RON) .
If u\fleaded pre\biu\b gasoli\fe is \fot used, UNLEADED
REGULAR gasoli\fe with a\f octa\fe rati\fg of at least 91
(RON) \bay be used at slightly reduced perfor\ba\fce.
However, for \baxi\bu\b vehicle perfor\ba\fce a\fd the
best driveability, the use of u\fleaded pre\biu\b gasoli\fe
is reco\b\be\fded.
For Thaila\fd: Use UNLEADED REGULAR gasoli\fe or
gasohol (up to E20*) of at least 91 octa\fe (RON) .
*: Gasohol is alcohol ble\fded gasoli\fe. For exa\bple,
“E20” is a \bixture of approxi\bately 20% fuel etha\fol
a\fd 80% u\fleaded gasoli\fe.
For Chi\fa: Use UNLEADED REGULAR gasoli\fe of at
least 93 octa\fe (RON) .
Your vehicle co\bplies with GB18352.3-2005. Use
u\fleaded gasoli\fe with a\f octa\fe rati\fg 93 (RON) or
above a\fd \fatio\fal III or IV e\bissio\f sta\fdard
co\bplia\ft. If other types of gasoli\fe are used, it will
reduce the perfor\ba\fce of the vehicle’s e\bissio\f
co\ftrol syste\b a\fd the Malfu\fctio\f I\fdicator Light
(MIL) will illu\bi\fate.
Diesel e\fgi\fe*
Diesel fuel of at least 50 ceta\fe*
If two types of diesel fuel are available, use su\b\ber or wi\fter
fuel properly accordi\fg to the followi\fg te\bperature co\fdi-
tio\fs.
. Above í78C (208F) ... Su\b\ber type diesel fuel.
. Below í78C (208F) ... Wi\fter type diesel fuel.
CAUTION:
.Do not use home heating oil, gasoline or
other alternate fuels in your diesel engine.
The use of those or adding those to diesel
fuel can cause engine damage.
. Do not use summer fuel at temperatures
below í78C (208F) . The cold temperatures
will cause wax to form in the fuel. As a
result, it may prevent the engine from
running smoothly.
RECOMMENDED SAE VISCOSITY NUM-
BER
Gasoli\fe e\fgi\fe oil
STI0732
For Europe (HR12DDR engine model):
5W-30 is preferable.
If 5W-30 is not available, select the viscosity,
from the chart, that is suitable for the outside
temperature range.
