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 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 Toyota 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 Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-

fied and equipped professional.

●Do not use the methanol blended gasoline such as M15,M85,M100. The

use of gasoline containing methanol may cause engine damage or failure.

(CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious

health hazard.

ating while customizing features.
