greater than 15% ethanol by
volume, such as mid-level
ethanol blends (16 –50%

federal specifications, but emission
control system performance may be
affected. The malfunction indicator

See

occurs, return to your authorized
dealer for diagnosis. If it is
determined that the condition is
caused by the type of fuel used,
repairs may not be covered by the
vehicle warranty.

fuel octane ratings in anti-knock
index (AKI). For fuel not to use in a
foreign country, see “Prohibited
Fuels” inFuel 0201.
