NOTICE
Notice on fuel quality
Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be
damaged.
Do not use leaded gasoline.
Leaded gasoline will cause the three-way catalytic converter to lose its
effectiveness and the emission control system to function improperly.
EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under names such as “E50” or “E85” and
fuel containing a large amount of ethanol should not be used. The use of
these fuels will damage the vehicle’s fuel system. In case of any doubt,
ask any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
Except EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under names such as “E50” or
“E85” and fuel containing a large amount of ethanol should not be used.
Your vehicle can use gasoline mixed with 10% max ethanol. The use of
fuel with more than 10% ethanol content (E10) will damage the vehicle’s
fuel system. You must ensure that refueling is carried out only from a
source where fuel specification and quality can be guaranteed. In case of
any doubt, ask any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
