NOTICE
Notice on fuel quality (diesel engine)
Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be
damaged.
Do not use a fuel that contains more than 50 ppm of sulfur.
Use of such a high sulfur fuel may damage the engine.
EU area: FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Ester) fuel sold under names such as
“B30” or “B100” and fuel containing a large amount of FAME should not be
used. The use of these fuels will damage the vehicle’s fuel system. In case
of any doubt, ask any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
Except EU area: FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Ester) fuel sold under names
such as “B30” or “B100” and fuel containing a large amount of FAME
should not be used. Your vehicle can use diesel mixed with 5% max bio-
diesel FAME (B5). The use of fuel with more than 5% FAME content (B5)
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 Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
