methanol (also known as wood alcohol)
are being marketed along with or instead
of leaded or unleaded gasoline.Do not use gasohol containing more than10% ethanol, and do not use gasoline or
gasohol containing any methanol. Either
of these fuels may cause drivability prob-lems and damage the fuel system.
Discontinue using gasohol of any kind if
drivability problems occur. Vehicle dam-
age or driveability problems may not be
covered by the manufacturer’s warranty if

containing MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl
Ether) over 15.0% vol. (Oxygen Content
2.7% weight) in your vehicle.
Fuel containing MTBE over 15.0% vol.
(Oxygen Content 2.7% weight) may
reduce vehicle performance and produce
vapor lock or hard starting.

hol) should not be used in your vehicle.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle per-
formance and damage components ofthe fuel system.
CAUTION

shift lever is in P (Park, for auto-
matic transaxle vehicle ) or neutral
(for manual transaxle vehicle), and
the parking brake is securely
applied whenever loading or
unloading cargo. Failure to take
these steps may allow the vehicle
to move if the shift lever is inadver-
tently moved to another position.
