jury or death.
NOTE: This section specifies the rec-
ommended liquids and procedures to
check their levels. Refer to MAIN-

dures to replace the liquids.

able from most service stations or oxy-
genated fuel containing a maximum
total of 10% of ethanol or methanol
or both. The gasoline used must have
the following recommended minimum
octane number.

CAUTION: Never experiment with
other fuels. The use of unrecom-
mended fuel can result in vehi-
cle performance deterioration and
damage to critical parts in the fuel
system and engine components.
Fuel Level
WARNING
Always stop engine before refu-
eling. Open cap slowly. If a dif-
ferential pressure condition is no-
ticed (whistling sound heard when
loosening fuel tank cap) have ve-
hicle inspected and/or repaired

flammable and explosive under
certain conditions. Never use an
open flame to check fuel level.
Never smoke or allow flame or
spark in vicinity. Always work in
a well-ventilated area. Never top
up the fuel tank before placing the
vehicle in a warm area. As tem-
perature increases, fuel expands
and may overflow. Always wipe
off any fuel or oil spillage from the
vehicle.

exceeds the requirements for API ser-
vice classification SM, SL or SJ. Al-
ways check the API service label cer-
tification on the oil container it must
contain at least one of the above stan-
dards.
