FUEL RECOMMENDATION

UNLEADED

FUEL ONLY

You must use unleaded petrol with an

octane number (RON) of 87 or higher. Your

vehicle is fitted with a restrictor in the fuel

filler pipe which will not allow the use of

large nozzle used for dispensing leaded fuel

at filling station. A label is also attached

near the fuel filler pipe of your vehicle that

states: "UNLEADED FUEL ONLY".

CAUTION

Use of leaded fuel in vehicle equipped

with catalytic converter is prohibited,

because leads deactivates the pollutant

reducing components of catalytic

converter and may result in permanent

damage to catalytic converter.
Petrol/Ethanol Blends

Blends of unleaded petrol and ethanol (grain

alcohol), also known as gasohol, are

commercially available in some areas.

Blends of this type may be used in your

vehicle if they are no more than 10%

ethanol. Make sure this petrol-ethanol blend

has octane ratings no lower than those

recommended for petrol.

Petrol/Methanol Blends

Blends of unleaded petrol and methanol (wood

alcohol) are also commercially

available in some areas. DO NOT USE

fuels containing more than 5% methanol

under any circumstances. Fuel system

damage or vehicle performance problems

resulting from the use of such fuels are not

the responsibility of MARUTI and may not

be covered under Warranty.

Fuels containing 5% or less methanol may

be suitable for use in your vehicle if they

contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors.

NOTE:

If you are not satisfied with the driveability

or fuel economy of your vehicle when you

are using a petmrol/alcohol blend, you should

switch back to unleaded petrol containing no

alcohol.
CAUTION

Be careful not to spill fuel containing

alcohol while refuelling. Fuels

containing alcohol can cause paint

damage, which is not covered under

Warranty.

CAUTION

The fuel tank has an air space to allow

for fuel expansion in hot weather. If you

continue to add fuel after the filler

nozzle has automatically shut off or an

initial blowback occurs, the air chamber

will become full. Exposure to heat when

fully fuelled in this manner will result

in leakage due to fuel expansion. To

prevent such fuel leakage, stop filling

after the filler nozzle has automatically

shut off, or when using an alternative

non automatic system, initial vent

blowback occurs.
