Fuel recommendation
EXAMPLE
K12M engine models
You must use unleaded gasoline with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher.
These vehicles are also identified by a
label attached near the fuel filler pipe that
states: "UNLEADED FUEL ONLY", "NUR
UNVERBLEITES BENZIN", "ENDAST
BLYFRI BENSIN" or "SOLO GASOLINA
SIN PLOMO".

Gasoline-ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline 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% etha-
nol.
Check that this gasoline-ethanol blend has
octane ratings no lower than those recom-
mended for gasoline.
Gasoline-methanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and methanol
(wood alcohol) are also commercially avail-
able 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 SUZUKI and may not be
75RM172
covered under the New Vehicle Warranty.
Fuels containing 5% or less methanol may
be suitable for use in your vehicle if they
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibi-
tors.
NOTE:
If you are not satisfied with the driveability
or fuel economy of your vehicle when you
use a gasoline-alcohol blend, you should
switch back to unleaded gasoline contain-
ing no alcohol.
NOTICE
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 automati-
cally 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 automati-
cally shut off, or when initial vent
blowback occurs, if using an alterna-
tive non-automatic system.
NOTICE
Be careful not to spill fuel containing
alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it up
immediately. Fuels containing alco-
hol can cause paint damage, which is
not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
