HONDA OWNERS
FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Visit owners.honda.com and register to explore features and technologies specific to
your vehicle, obtain and update maintenance and service records, manage your
financial services account, and access other useful information. For added convenience,
Honda Owners can also be accessed on a mobile device.
SAFETY REMINDER
Your vehicle is equipped with airbags. Airbags do not replace seat belts; they add to
the protection offered by seat belts. Airbags can help protect you in some types of
collisions, but they do not provide protection in all collisions.
Use of unleaded gasoline of 87 octane or higher is recommended.
• Honda recommends TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline where available.
• Do NOT use gasoline containing more than 15% ethanol.
• Do NOT use gasoline containing methanol.
• Do NOT use gasoline containing MMT.
See your Owner’s Manual for more information.
Some gasoline in North America contains MMT, a manganese-based fuel additive.
Prolonged and consistent use of gasoline containing MMT can deteriorate your
vehicle’s performance, fuel economy, and the emission control system. Always use
MMT-free gasoline if available. Failures caused by use of gasoline containing MMT may
not be covered under your new vehicle warranty.
TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline (recommended) never contains MMT and has
detergent additives to keep your engine clean. For further information on fuel and
lubricants for your car and information on gasoline that does not contain MMT,
contact your dealer or visit owners.honda.com.
HONDA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
24-hour emergency road service is available to you in the United States throughout
your 3-year/36,000-mile warranty term. Services include jump starting, flat tire and
lockout assistance, towing, and more (limitations apply). Call (866) 864-5211.
Always make sure you and your passengers wear seat belts, and that young children

infant seat in the front passenger’s seat as the force of a deploying airbag can
seriously injure an infant.
