1-1FUEL RECOMMENDATION
75RM4-01E
Fuel recommendationGasoline engine
75RM304
To avoid damaging the catalytic converter,
you must use unleaded gasoline with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher (or
95 or higher if it is stated on the fuel filler
lid), which comply with the European stan-
dard EN228. These vehicles are also iden-
tified by a label attached near the fuel filler
pipe that states: “UNLEADED FUEL
ONLY”, “NUR UNVERBLEITES BENZIN”,
“ENDAST BLYFRI BENSIN” or “SOLO
GASOLINA SIN PLOMO”.
If a “RON 95” label is attached, you must
use unleaded gasoline with an octane
number (RON) of 95 or higher. Gasoline-ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in certain areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10% etha-
nol ( ). Check that this gasoline-ethanol
blend has octane ratings no lower than
those recommended for the gasoline.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
use a gasoline-alcohol blend, you should
switch back to unleaded gasoline contain-
ing no alcohol.
Gasoline containing MTBE
(where legally available)
Unleaded gasoline containing MTBE
(methyl tertiary butyl
ether) may be used in
your vehicle if the MTBE content is not
greater than 15%. This oxygenated fuel
does not contain alcohol.
NOTE:
• For the fuel recommendation of Chile andPanama models, refer to “For Chile and
Panama” in the “SUPPLEMENT” section.
• For the fuel recommendation of Mexico models, refer to “For Mexico” in the
“SUPPLEMENT” section.
• For the fuel recommendation of Argen- tina models, refer to “For Argentina” in
the “SUPPLEMENT” section.EXAMPLE

NOTICE
The fuel tank has an air space to allow
for fuel expansion in hot weather. If
you continue to add fuel after the filler
nozzle has automatically shut off or
an initial blowback occurs, the air
chamber will become full. Exposure
to heat when fully fuelled in this man-
ner will result in leakage due to fuel
expansion. To prevent such fuel leak-
age, stop filling after the filler nozzle
has automatically shut off, or when
initial vent blowback occurs, if using
an alternative non-automatic system.
NOTICE
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alco-
hol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

When the driver and/or passenger(s)
do(does) not buckle his or her seat belt,
the seat belt reminder light will come on or
blink and a buzzer will sound as a
reminder to the driver and/or passenger(s)
to buckle his or her seat belt. For more
details, refer to the explanation below.
NOTE:
The driver’s seat belt reminder light / front
passenger’s seat belt reminder light is for
both the driver and front passenger. Driver’s seat belt reminder
If the driver’s seat belt remains unbuckled
when the ignition switch is turned to “ON”
position or the engine switch is pressed to
change the ignition mode to ON, the
reminder works as follows:
1) The seat belt reminder light will come
on.
2) After the vehicle’s speed has reached
about 15 km/h, the seat belt reminder
light will blink and a buzzer will sound
for about 95 seconds.
3) The reminder light will remain on until the driver’s seat belt is buckled.
If the driver has buckled his or her seat belt
and later unbuckles the seat belt, the
reminder system will be activated from
Step 1) or 2) according to the vehicle’s
speed. When the vehicle’s speed is less
than 15 km/h, the reminder will start from
Step 1). When the vehicle’s speed is more
than 15 km/h, the reminder will start from
Step 2).
The reminder will be automatically can-
celed when the driver’s seat belt is buckled
or the ignition switch is turned off, or the
engine switch is pressed to change the
ignition mode to LOCK (OFF). Front passenger’s seat belt reminder
(if equipped)
The front passenger’s seat belt reminder
will activate only when there is a passen-
ger sitting in the front seat. In some situa-
tions, however, such as when you place
heavy objects in the front seat, the seat
belt reminder can be activated as if a pas-
senger was present. The front passenger’s
seat belt reminder wo
rks in the same man-
ner as the driver’s seat belt reminder.
Rear passenger’s seat belt reminder
(if equipped)
If a rear seat belt is not fastened when the
engine is started, all the rear passenger’s
seat belt reminder lights will come on for
about 35 seconds and then go out.
Within this 35 seconds;
• For the instrument c luster with tachome-
ter, the corresponding reminder is high-
lighted. The reminder fades when the
seat belt is fastened.
• For the instrum ent cluster without
tachometer, the corresponding reminder
comes on with the frame. The reminder
goes off with leaving the frame when the
seat belt is fastened.
The rear passenger’s seat belt reminder
lights will also come on for about 35 sec-
onds in the following conditions.
• If a seat belt is unfastened when the vehicle speed is less than 15 km/h, the
corresponding light will come on.
WA R N I N G
It is absolutely essential that the
driver and passengers fasten their
seat belts at all times. Persons who
are not fastening seat belts have a
much greater risk of injury if an acci-
dent occurs. Make a regular habit of
buckling your seat belt before putting
the key in the ignition or pressing the
engine switch.
2-39BEFORE DRIVING
75RM4-01E
• If a seat belt is unfastened when thevehicle speed is more than 15 km/h, the
corresponding light will come on and a
buzzer will sound.
The reminder will be automatically can-
celed when the rear seat belt is buckled or
the ignition switch is turned off, or the
engine switch is pressed to change the
ignition mode to LOCK (OFF).
Shoulder anchor height adjuster (if equipped)
64J198
Adjust the shoulder anchor height so that
the shoulder belt rides on the center of the

the anchor up. To move downward, slide
the anchor down while pulling the lock
knob out. After adjustment, check that the
anchor is securely locked.
Rear outside seat belt guide
75RM007
When you move a seatback, make sure
the belt webbing and the latch plate are
hooked in the seat belt hangers.
WA R N I N G
Check that the shoulder belt is posi-
tioned on the cent er of the outside
shoulder. The belt should be away
from your face and neck, but not fall-
ing off your shoulder. Misadjustment
of the belt could reduce the effective-
ness of the seat belt in a crash.
