RX350/RX350L_U NOTICE ■
Notice on fuel quality ●
Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be damaged. ●
Do not use leaded gasoline.
Leaded gasoline can cause damage to your vehicle’s three-way catalytic converters
causing the emission control system to malfunction. ●
Do not use gasohol other than the type previously stated.
Other gasohol may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems. ●
Using unleaded gasoline with an octane numb er or rating lower than the level previ-
ously stated will cause pe rsistent heavy knocking.
At worst, this will lead to engine damage. ■
Fuel-related poor driveability
If poor driveability (poor hot starting, vaporization, engine knocking, etc.) is encoun-
tered after using a different type of fuel, discontinue the use of that type of fuel.■
When refueling with gasohol
Take care not to spill gasohol. It can damage your vehicle’s paint.
