Fuel information
■Gasoline quality
In very few cases, driveability problems may be caused by the b rand of gaso-
line  you  are  using.  If  driveability  problems  persist,  try  changing  the  brand  of
gasoline. If this does not correct the problem, consult your To yota dealer.
■ Recommendation of the use of gaso line containing detergent additives
● Toyota recommends the use of gasoline that contains detergent a dditives to
avoid build-up of engine deposits.
● All  gasoline  sold  in  the  U.S.A.  contains  minimum  detergent  addi tives  to
clean and/or keep clean intake systems, per EPA’s lowest additi ves concen-
tration program.
● Toyota  strongly  recommends  the  use  of  Top  Tier  Detergent  Gasoli ne.  For
more  information  on  Top  Tier  Detergent  Gasoline  and  a  list  of  m arketers,
please go to the official website www.toptiergas.com.
■ Recommendation of the use  of low emissions gasoline
Gasolines  containing  oxygenates  such  as  ethers  and  ethanol,  as  well  as
reformulated gasolines, are available in some cities. These fue ls are typically
acceptable for use, providing they meet other fuel requirements .
Toyota  recommends  these  fuels,  since  the  formulations  allow  for   reduced
vehicle emissions.
You must only use unleaded gasoline.
Select octane rating 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher.
Use  of  unleaded  gasoline  with  an  octane  rating  lower  than  87
may  result  in  engine  knocking.  Persistent  knocking  can  lead  to
engine damage.
At minimum, the gasoline you use should meet the specifications  of
ASTM D4814 in the U.S.A. 

5528-1. Specifications
■Non-recommendation of the use of blended gasoline
●If  you  use  gasohol  in  your  vehicle,  be  sure  that  it  has  an  octa ne  rating  no
lower than 87.
● Toyota does not recommend the use of gasoline containing methan ol.
■ Non-recommendation of the use of gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains an octane enhancing additive called MMT  (Methylcy-
clopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl).
Toyota  does  not  recommend  the  use  of  gasoline  that  contains  MMT.  If  fuel
containing  MMT  is  used,  your  emission  control  system  may  be  adv ersely
affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp on the instrument cluster may come on. If this
happens, contact your Toyota dealer for service.
■ If your engine knocks
●Consult your Toyota dealer.
● You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time whi le accelerat-
ing or driving uphill. This is normal and there is no need for  concern.
●
Use  only  gasoline  containing  up  to  15%
ethanol.
DO  NOT  use  any  flex-fuel  or  gasoline
that  could  contain  more  than  15%  etha-
nol,  including  from  any  pump  labeled
E30,  E50,  E85  (which  are  only  some
examples  of  fuel  containing  more  than
15% ethanol).
DO NOT use gasoline contain-
ing more than 15% ethanol.
(30% ethanol)
(50% ethanol)
(85% ethanol)

NOTICE
■Notice on fuel quality
● Do  not  use  improper  fuels.  If  improper  fuels  are  used,  the  engi ne  will  be
damaged.
● Do not use leaded gasoline.
Leaded  gasoline  can  cause  damage  to  your  vehicle’s  three-way  ca talytic
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  performan ce
problems.
● Using  unleaded  gasoline  with  an  octane  number  or  rating  lower  than  the
level previously stated will cause persistent heavy knocking.
At worst, this will lead to engine damage.
■ Fuel-related poor driveability
If poor driveability (poor hot starting, vaporization, engine k nocking, etc.) is
encountered  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.
