Recommendation of the use of cleaner burning gasoline
Cleaner burning gasoline, including reformul ated gasoline that contains oxygenates
such as ethanol or MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) is ava ilable in many areas.
Lexus recommends the use of cleaner bu rning gasoline and appropriately blended
reformulated gasoline. These types of gaso line provide excellent vehicle performance,
reduce vehicle emissions and improve air quality. ■
Non-recommendation of the use of blended gasoline
●
If you use gasohol in your vehicle, be sure th at it has an octane rating no lower than 87.●
Lexus does not recommend the use of gasoline containing methanol.■
Non-recommendation of the use of gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains an octane enhancing additive called MMT
(Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl).
Lexus does not recommend the use of gasolin e that contains MMT. If fuel containing
MMT is used, your emission control system may be adversely affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp on the instru ment cluster may come on. If this happens,
contact your Lexus dealer for service. ■

ing uphill. This is normal and there is no need for concern. ●

nol.

could contain more than 15% ethanol, includ-
ing from any pump labeled E30, E50, E85

taining more than 15% ethanol). DO NOT use gasoline
