FUEL RECOMMENDATION
UNLEADED
FUEL ONLY
You must use unleaded petrol with an
octane number (RON) of 87 or higher. Your
vehicle is fitted with a restrictor in the fuel
filler pipe which will not allow the use of
large nozzle used for dispensing leaded fuel
at filling station. A label is also attached
near the fuel filler pipe of your vehicle that
states: "UNLEADED FUEL ONLY".
CAUTION
Use of leaded fuel in vehicle equipped
with catalytic converter is prohibited,
because leads deactivates the pollutant
reducing components of catalytic
converter and may result in permanent
damage to catalytic converter.
Petrol/Ethanol Blends
Blends of unleaded petrol and ethanol (grain
alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in some areas.
Blends of this type may be used in your
vehicle if they are no more than 10%
ethanol. Make sure this petrol-ethanol blend
has octane ratings no lower than those
recommended for petrol.
Petrol/Methanol Blends
Blends of unleaded petrol and methanol (wood
alcohol) are also commercially
available in some areas. DO NOT USE
fuels containing more than 5% methanol
under any circumstances. Fuel system
damage or vehicle performance problems
resulting from the use of such fuels are not
the responsibility of MARUTI and may not
be covered under Warranty.
Fuels containing 5% or less methanol may
be suitable for use in your vehicle if they
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
are using a petmrol/alcohol blend, you should
switch back to unleaded petrol containing no
alcohol.
CAUTION
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refuelling. Fuels
containing alcohol can cause paint
damage, which is not covered under
Warranty.
CAUTION
The fuel tank has an air space to allow
for fuel expansion in hot weather. If you
continue to add fuel after the filler
nozzle has automatically shut off or an
initial blowback occurs, the air chamber
will become full. Exposure to heat when
fully fuelled in this manner will result
in leakage due to fuel expansion. To
prevent such fuel leakage, stop filling
after the filler nozzle has automatically
shut off, or when using an alternative
non automatic system, initial vent
blowback occurs.
