•
Operation in Foreign Countries
Your Monte Carlo is designed
to operate on fuel of approximately
91 research octane number or
higher, sold in the United States
and Canada.
If you plan to operate your
Monte Carlo outside the continen-
tal limits of the United States or
Canada, there is a possibility that
the best fuels available in some
countries are so low in anti-knock
quality that excessive knocking and
serious engine damage may result
from their use. To minimize this
possibility, write to Chevrolet Divi-
sion, Service Department, Detroit,
Michigan 48202, (or in Canada
write to General Motors of Can-
ada Limited, Owner Relations De-
partment, Oshawa, Ontario),
giving:
• The vehicle identification num-
ber ( on plate on instrument
panel ahead of the steering
wheel and visible through the
windshield, or from registration
slip or title).
• The country or countries in
which you plan to traveL
You will be furnished informa-

tion on the quality of fuels avail-
able in the countries in which you
plan to traveL
It
is recommended
that you not operate your Monte
Carlo in any country not having
fuels meeting the requirements of
your Chevrolet engine. Engine
modifications are not available to
compensate for low anti-knock
quality fuels. Operation of your car
under conditions of continuous or
excessive knocking constitutes mis-
use of the engine for which the
Chevrolet Division is not responsi-
ble under the terms of the Chev-
rolet New Vehicle Warranty.
