Your FlexFuel vehicle automatically
detects the current fuel mixture in the
fuel tank and adjusts engine settings
accordingly. You can fill up with gasoline
or E85, regardless of which fuel is
already in the tank.
E85 is not yet available at all gas sta-
tions. E85 holds less energy per gallon
than gasoline, so drivers will experience
lower miles per gallon and cruising
range when running on E85.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.

Note: If your vehicle does not have the
yellow gas cap, do not use E85.

life based on vehicle use and displays
