Vehicle specifications
■Gasoline quality
In very few cases,  driveability prob-
lems may be caused by the brand of 
gasoline you are using. If driveability 
problems persist, try changing the 
brand of gasoline. If this does not 
correct the problem, consult your 
Toyota dealer.
■Recommendation of the use of 
gasoline containing detergent 
additives
●Toyota recomme nds the use of 
gasoline that contains detergent 
additives to avoid build-up of 
engine deposits.
●All gasoline sold in the U.S.A. con-
tains minimum detergent additives 
to clean and/or keep clean intake 
systems, per EPA’s lowest addi-
tives concentration program.
●Toyota strongly recommends the 
use of Top Tier Detergent Gaso-
line. For more information on Top 
Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list 
of marketers, please go to the offi-
cial 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 avail-
able in some cities. These fuels are 
typically acceptable for use, provid-
ing they meet other fuel require-
ments.
Toyota recommends these fuels, 
since the formulations allow for 
reduced vehicle emissions.
■Non-recommendation of the 
use of blended gasoline
●Use only gasoline containing up to 
15% ethanol.
DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gas-
oline that could contain more than 
15% ethanol, including from any 
pump labeled E30 (30% ethanol  ), E50 (50% ethanol  ), E85 
(85% ethanol  ) (which are only 
some examples of f uel containing 
more than 15% ethanol).
●If you use gasohol in your vehicle, 
be sure that it has an octane rat-
ing no lower than 87.
●Toyota does not recommend the 
use of gasoline containing metha-
nol.
Fuel infor mation
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 knock-
ing. Persistent knocking 
can lead to engine damage.
At minimum, the gasoline you 
use should meet the specifi-
cations of ASTM D4814 in the 
U.S.A.

■Non-recommendation of the 
use of gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains an octane 
enhancing additive called MMT 
(Methylcyclopentadienyl Manga-
nese Tricarbonyl).
Toyota does not recommend the use 
of gasoline that contains MMT. If 
fuel containing MMT is used, your 
emission control system may be 
adversely 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 while 
accelerating or dr iving uphill. This 
is normal and there is no need for 
concern.
NOTICE
■Notice on fuel quality
●Do not use impro per 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 caus-
ing 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 per-
formance problems.
●Using unleaded gasoline with 
an octane number or rating 
lower than the l evel previously 
stated will cause persistent 
heavy knocking.
At worst, this will lead to engine 
damage.
■Fuel-related poor driveability
If poor driveability (poor hot start-
ing, vaporization, engine knock-
ing, etc.) is encountered after 
using a different type of fuel, dis-
continue the use  of that type of 
fuel.
■When refueling with gasohol
Take care not to spill gasohol. It 
can damage your vehicle’s paint.
