Fuel Recommendation - Suzuki NEXA BALENO Owner's Manual & Service Booklet

Fuel Recommendation

Gasoline Engine
To avoid damaging the catalytic converter,
you must use unleaded petrol with an
octane number (RON) of 91 or higher.
Gasoline-ethanol blends
Blends of unleaded gasoline and ethanol
(grain alcohol), also known as gasohol, are
commercially available in certain 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
recommended for the gasoline.
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.
Gasoline containing MTBE
Unleaded gasoline containing
(methyl tertiary butyl ether) may be used in
your vehicle if the MTBE content is not
greater than 15%. This oxygenated fuel
does not contain alcohol.
Use of spurious, low quality, adulter-
ated fuel can cause damage to the
engine and engine auxilliaries, affect
functioning of engine and degrade
engine performance including but
not limited to engine seizure.
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
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 fill-
ing after the filler nozzle has auto-
matically shut off, or when initial
MTBE
vent blowback occurs, if using an
alternative non-automatic system.
• Be careful not to spill fuel contain-
ing alcohol while refueling. If fuel is
spilled on the vehicle body, wipe it
up immediately. Fuels containing
alcohol can cause paint damage,
which is not covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
