FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
Fuel quality and additives contained in
fuel have a significant effect on power
output, driveability, and life of the engine.
Fuel with too low an Octane number can
cause engine knock. Use of 87 or higher
Octane rating fuel is recommended.
The use of gasoline with an Octane rat-
ing lower than 87 may cause engine to
knock. Continued use may cause engine
damage and manufacturer warranty
stands void. Contact your CHEVROLET
retailer to fix your car, incase of usage of
lower or higher Octane rating fuel other
than General Motors India recommenda-
tion.
CAUTION
• Use of fuel with low quality or too low
octane number may damage the en-
gine.
• Use of leaded fuel in our unleaded
vehicles will damage exhaust system
and invalidate the warranty.
