NOTE
The results given do not express or imply any guarantee of the fuel consumption of the particular vehicle.
The vehicle itself has not been tested and there are inevitably differences between individual vehicles of the same model. In addition, this vehicle may incorporate particu-
lar modifications. Furthermore, the driver’s style and road and traffic conditions, as well as the extent to which the vehicle has been driven and the standard of mainte-
nance, will all affect its fuel consumption.

Notes regarding diesel fuel
EP02A-F
Due to paraffin separation, the fluidity of diesel fuel decreases
remarkably as the temperature decreases. For this reason, die-
sel fuel is divided into two types,“summer”and“winter”.
The effective limit of“winter”diesel fuel during cold-weather peri-
ods is rated at -15°C. In extremely cold weather, it is recom-
mended that regular petrol (not premium or“high-test”petrol) be
mixed with the diesel fuel up to a maximum concentration of 30%.
In order to minimize the reduction in performance, be sure to mix
in only as much regular petrol as is absolutely necessary.
Temperature“Summer”diesel fuel“Winter”diesel fuel
0°C—-15°C max. 30%—
-15°C—-25°C—max. 30%
When travelling in a foreign country, be sure to obtain informa-
tion regarding the diesel fuel in general use in that locality.
Use of a“flow improver”, which can be obtained at most petrol
stations, is recommended.
CAUTION
(1) Because the fuel is highly flammable, mix the diesel
fuel and regular petrol only inside the vehicle’s fuel
tank.
(2) If possible, put the regular petrol into the fuel tank
before putting in the diesel fuel.Specifications
