NOTICE
Notice on fuel quality
Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be dam-
aged.

tiveness and the emission control system to function improperly.
Gasoline engine (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 Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional.
Gasoline engine (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 Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
