Additional Information
Fuel
• 2.5 liter DOHC Non-turbo models use regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of
87 AKI or higher. Consult the Owner’s Manual for more detailed information.
• 2.0 liter DOHC Turbo model’s engine is designed to operate at maximum performance
using unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 93 AKI or higher. If 93 AKI fuel is
not readily available, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 AKI or h\
igher may
be temporarily used. However, you may notice a slight decrease in maximum engine
performance while using 91 AKI fuel.
Regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI or higher may \
also be
used. Using regular unleaded gasoline will not be detrimental to engine durability, nor
will it affect your warranty coverage. However, depending on your driving habits and
conditions, you may notice a decrease in maximum engine performance, fuel economy
or slight engine vibration or knocking. It is not recommended to use 87 AKI when towing.
Consult the Owner’s Manual for more detailed information.
Fuel Capacity
• 15.9 US gal (60 liters, 13.2 lmp gal)
• When the low fuel indicator light is displayed on the instrument panel, \
approximately
2.6 US gallons of fuel remain.
• If you have recently fueled your vehicle, the Check Engine light on the instrument pa\
nel
may stay on due to a missing or loose fuel filler cap (the cap should\
be tightened until a
click is heard).
