FUEL INFORMATION
CAUTION
Do not use leaded gasoline. using leaded
gasoline will damage the three-way
catalyst.
For Mexico
Use UNLEADED PREMIUM gasoline with
an octane rating of at least 91AKI (Anti-
Knock Index) number (Research octane num-
ber 96).
If unleaded premium is not used, UN-
LEADED REGULAR gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
number (Research octane number of 91) may
be used at slightly reduced performance.
However, for maximum vehicle performance
and the best driveability, the use of unleaded
premium is recommended. Except for Mexico
Use UNLEADED PREMIUM gasoline with
an octane rating of
at least 95(RON)
If unleaded premium is not used, UN-
LEADED REGULAR gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 91 (RON) may be used at
slightly reduced performance. However, for
maximum vehicle performance and the best
driveability, the use of unleaded premium is
recommended.

AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM
REFRIGERANT AND OIL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioner system in your INFINITI
vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant
HFC-134a (R-134a) and the oil, NISSAN
A/C system oil DH-PS or the exact equiva-
lents.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or oil will
cause severe damage to the air condition-
ing system and will require the replacement
of all air conditioner system components.
The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your
INFINITI vehicle does not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does
not affect the earth’s atmosphere, certain
government regulations require the recovery
and recycling of any refrigerant during auto-
motive air conditioner system service. An
INFINITI retailer has the trained technicians
and equipment needed to recover and recycle
your air conditioner system refrigerant. It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer when servicing your air conditioner
system.

Technical and consumer information9-7

When planning to drive your INFINITI ve-
hicle in another country,you should first find
out if the fuel available is suitable for your
vehicle's engine.
Using fuel with an octane rating that is too
low may cause engine damage. All gasoline
vehicles must be operated with unleaded
gasoline. Therefore, avoid taking your vehicle
to areas where appropriate fuel is not avail-
able.
When transferring the registration of your
vehicle to another country, state, province
or district, it may be necessary to modify the
vehicle to meet local laws and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle
emission control and safety standards vary
according to the country, state, province or
district; therefore, vehicle specifications may
differ.
When any vehicle is to be taken into another
country, state, province or district and reg-
istered, its modifications, transportation,
and registration are the responsibility of the
user. INFINITI is not responsible for any in-
convenience that may result.
