FUEL RECOMMENDATION S35-D-110201-A221234C-A924-408C-86C4-B0AED0C6451C Use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research octane number 91). identified by a small, square, orange and black label with the common abbreviation or the appropriate percentage for that region. determined. If in doubt, ask your service station manager. If you use oxygenate-blend gasoline, please take the following precautions as the usage of such fuels may cause vehicle performance problems and/or fuel system damage. . The fuel should be unleaded and have an octane rating no lower than that recommended for unleaded gasoline. If an oxygenate-blend, other than methanol blend is used, it should contain no more than 10% oxygenate. (MTBE may, however, be added up to 15%.) E-15 fuel contains more than 10% oxygenate. E-15 fuel will adversely affect the emission control devices and systems of the vehicle and should not be used. Damage caused by such fuel is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty. If a methanol blend is used, it should contain no more than 5% methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol) . It should also contain a suitable amount of appropriate cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. If not properly formulated with appropriate cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors, such methanol Technical and consumer information 9-3 CAUTION . Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect the emission control system, and may also affect warranty coverage. Under no circumstances should a leaded gasoline be used, because this will damage the three-way catalyst. Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your vehicle.

FUEL RECOMMENDATION
S35-D-110201-A221234C-A924-408C-86C4-B0AED0C6451C
Use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
number (Research octane number 91).
CAUTION
.
Using a fuel other than that speci-
fied could adversely affect the emis-
sion control system, and may also
affect warranty coverage.
.
Under no circumstances should a
leaded gasoline be used, because
this will damage the three-way cat-
alyst.
.
Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your
vehicle. Your vehicle is not designed
to run on E-15 or E-85 fuel. Using E-
15
or
E-85
fuel
in
a
vehicle
not
specifically designed for E-15 or E-
85
fuel
can
adversely
affect
the
emission control devices and sys-
tems of the vehicle. Damage caused
by such fuel is not covered by the
NISSAN

war-
ranty.
.
U.S. government regulations require
ethanol
dispensing
pumps
to
be
identified by a small, square, orange
and black label with the common
abbreviation or the appropriate per-
centage for that region.
Gasoline specifications
GUID-FB0FC0E7-207A-41F4-86F5-B3D4696C057C
NISSAN recommends using gasoline that meets
the World-Wide Fuel Charter (WWFC) speci-
fications
where
it
is
available.
Many
of
the
automobile manufacturers developed this spe-
cification to improve emission control system
and
vehicle
performance.
Ask
your
service
station
manager
if
the
gasoline
meets
the
WWFC specifications.
Reformulated gasoline
GUID-7B630239-6E8B-4DD6-A634-A7A85BD8A7F4
Some fuel suppliers are now producing refor-
mulated gasolines. These gasolines are specially
designed to reduce vehicle emissions. NISSAN
supports efforts towards cleaner air and sug-
gests that you use reformulated gasoline when
available.
Gasoline containing oxygenates
GUID-ACAFD4CF-3803-48B3-AB06-1F34D57C0C20
Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing
oxygenates such as ethanol, MTBE and metha-
nol with or without advertising their presence.
NISSAN does not recommend the use of fuels
of which the oxygenate content and the fuel
compatibility for your NISSAN cannot be readily
determined. If in doubt, ask your service station
manager.
If you use oxygenate-blend gasoline, please take
the following precautions as the usage of such
fuels may cause vehicle performance problems
and/or fuel system damage.
.
The fuel should be unleaded and have
an octane rating no lower than that
recommended for unleaded gasoline.
.
If
an
oxygenate-blend,
other
than
methanol
blend
is
used,
it
should
contain no more than 10% oxygenate.
(MTBE may, however, be added up to
15%.)
.
E-15
fuel
contains
more
than
10%
oxygenate.
E-15
fuel
will
adversely
affect
the
emission
control
devices
and systems of the vehicle and should
not be used. Damage caused by such
fuel is not covered by the NISSAN new
vehicle limited warranty.
.
If a methanol blend is used, it should
contain
no
more
than
5%
methanol
(methyl
alcohol,
wood
alcohol).
It
should also contain a suitable amount
of appropriate cosolvents and corro-
sion inhibitors. If not properly formu-
lated with appropriate cosolvents and
corrosion
inhibitors,
