MEMO

FUEL RECOMMENDATION:
Use unleaded premium gasoline with an oc-
tane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock
Index) number (Research octane number 96).
If unleaded premium gasoline is not available,
unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rat-
ing of at least 87 AKI number (Research oc-
tane number 91) may be temporarily used,
but only under the following precautions:∙ Have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regular gasoline, and fill up
with unleaded premium gasoline as soon
as possible.
∙ Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt ac- celeration.
Use unleaded premium gasoline for maxi-
mum vehicle performance.
CAUTION
∙ Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect the emission con-
trol system, and may also affect the war-
ranty coverage.
∙ Under no circumstances should a leaded gasoline be used, because this will dam-
age the three-way catalyst. ∙ Do not use a fuel containing more than
15% ethanol in your vehicle. Your vehicle
is not designed to run on a fuel containing
more than 15% ethanol. Using a fuel con-
taining more than 15% ethanol in a ve-
hicle not specifically designed for a fuel
containing more than 15% ethanol can
adversely affect the emission control de-
vices and systems of the vehicle. Damage
caused by such fuel is not covered by the
INFINITI New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
∙
Do not use fuel that contains the octane
booster methylcyclopentadienyl manga-
nese tricarbonyl (MMT). Using fuel con-
taining MMT may adversely affect vehicle
performance and vehicle emissions. Not all
fuel dispensers are labeled to indicate MMT
content, so you may have to consult your
gasoline retailer for more details. Note that
Federal and California laws prohibit the use
of MMT in reformulated gasoline.
∙U.S. government regulations require etha-
nol dispensing pumps to be identified by a
small, square, orange and black label with
the common abbreviation or the appropri-
ate percentage for that region.
For additional information, refer to “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities” in
the “Technical and consumer information”
section of this manual.
