Fuel Information
■Fuel recommendation
Use of lower octane gasoline can cause occasional metallic knocking noise in the 
engine and will result in decreased engine performance.
Use of gasoline with a pump octane less than 87 can lead to engine damage.
■Top tier detergent gasoline
Because the level of detergency and additive s in gasoline vary in the market, Honda 
endorses the use of “TOP TIER Deterg ent Gasoline” where available to help 
maintain the performance and reliability of your vehicle. TOP TIER Detergent 
Gasoline meets a new gasoline standard join tly established by leading automotive 
manufacturers to meet the need s of today’s advanced engines.
Qualifying gasoline retailers will, in most cases, identify their gasoline as having met 
“TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline” standards  at the retail location. This fuel is 
guaranteed to contain the proper level of  detergent additives and be free of metallic 
additives. The proper level of detergent a dditives, and absence of harmful metallic 
additives in gasoline, help avoid build-up  of deposits in your engine and emission 
control system.
For further important fuel-related informat ion for your vehicle, or on information on 
gasoline that does not contain MMT, visit www.hondacars.com. In Canada, visit 
www.honda.ca for additional information on gasoline. For more information on top 
tier gasoline, visit www.toptiergas.com .

1Fuel Information
NOTICE
We recommend quality ga soline containing 
detergent additives that help prevent fuel system and 
engine deposits. In  addition, in order to maintain 
good performance, fuel economy, and emissions 
control, we strongly reco mmend the use of gasoline 
that does NOT contain  harmful manganese-based 
fuel additives such as MMT, if such gasoline is 
available.
Use of gasoline with these additives may adversely 
affect performance, a nd cause the malfunction 
indicator lamp on your inst rument panel to come on. 
If this happens, contact a dealer for service. Some 
gasoline today is  blended with oxygenates such as 
ethanol. Your vehicle is  designed to operate on 
oxygenated gasoline containing up to 15% ethanol 
by volume. Do not use gaso line containing methanol. 
If you notice any undesira ble operating symptoms, try 
another service station or sw itch to another brand of 
gasoline.

4. Place the end of the filler nozzle on the 
lower part of filler opening, then insert it 
slowly and fully.
u Make sure that the end of the filler 
nozzle goes down along with the filler 
pipe.
u Keep the filler nozzle level.
u When the tank is full, the filler nozzle will 
click off automatically.
u After filling, wait about five seconds 
before removing th e filler nozzle.
5. Shut the fuel fill door by hand.1How to Refuel
If the fuel filler nozzle keeps turning off when the 
tank is not full, there ma y be a problem with the 
pump’s fuel vapor recovery  system. Try filling at 
another pump. If this  does not fix the problem, 
consult a dealer.
Do not continue to add fuel  after the filler nozzle has 
automatically stopped. Addi tional fuel can exceed 
the full tank capacity.
If you have to refuel y our vehicle from a portable 
container, use the funnel pr ovided with your vehicle.
