NOTICE

■

Notice on fuel quality

●

Do not use improper fuels. If improper 

fuels are used, the engine will be dam-

aged.

●

Do not use gasoline with metallic addi-

tives, for example manganese, iron or 

lead, otherwise it may cause damage 

on your engine or emission control 

system.

●

Do not add aftermarket fuel additives 

which contain metallic additives.

●

EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under 

names such as “E50” or “E85” and 

fuel containing a large amount of etha-

nol should not be used. The use of 

these fuels will damage the vehicle’s 

fuel system. In case of any doubt, ask 

any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus 

authorized repairer, or any reliable 

repairer.

●

Except EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold 

under names such as “E50” or “E85”

ethanol should not be used. Your vehi-

cle can use gasoline mixed with 10% 

max ethanol. The use of fuel with more 

than 10% ethanol content (E10) will 

damage the vehicle’s fuel system. You 

must ensure that refueling is carried 

out only from a source where fuel 

specification and quality can be guar-

anteed. In case of any doubt, ask any 

authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus 

authorized repairer, or any reliable 

repairer.

●

Do not use the methanol blended gas-

oline such as M15, M85, M100.
