Fuel Information

■ Fuel recommendation

1Fuel Information

Unleaded gasoline, pump octane number 87 or higher

NOTICE

We recommend quality gasoline containing

detergent additives that help prevent fuel system and

engine deposits. In addition, in order to maintain

good performance, fuel economy, and emissions

control, we strongly recommend the use of gasoline

that does NOT contain harmful manganese-based

fuel additives such as MMT, if such gasoline is

available.

Use of a lower octane gasoline can cause a persistent, heavy metallic knocking noise

that can lead to engine damage.

■ Top tier detergent gasoline

Because the level of detergency and additives in gasoline vary in the market, Honda

endorses the use of “TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline” where available to help

maintain the performance and reliability of your vehicle. TOP TIER Detergent

Gasoline meets a new gasoline standard jointly established by leading automotive

manufacturers to meet the needs of today’s advanced engines.

Use of gasoline with these additives may adversely

affect performance, and cause the malfunction

indicator lamp on your instrument panel to come on.

If this happens, contact a dealer for service.

Some gasoline today is blended with oxygenates such

as ethanol. Your vehicle is designed to operate on

oxygenated gasoline containing up to 15% ethanol

by volume. Do not use gasoline containing methanol.

If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms, try

another service station or switch to another brand of

gasoline.

Qualifying gasoline retailers will, in most cases, identify their gasoline as having met

“TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline” standards at the retail location. This fuel is

guaranteed to contain the proper level of detergent additives and be free of metallic

additives. The proper level of detergent additives, and absence of harmful metallic

additives in gasoline, help avoid buildup of deposits in your engine and emission

control system.

For further important fuel-related information for your vehicle, or on information on

gasoline that does not contain MMT, visit www.hondacars.com. In Canada, visit

www.honda.ca for additional information on gasoline. For more information on top

tier gasoline, visit www.toptiergas.com.

How to Refuel

Your fuel tank is not equipped with a fuel filler cap. You can insert the filler nozzle

directly into the filler neck. The tank seals itself again when you pull out the filler

nozzle.

WARNING

1. Stop your vehicle with the service station

pump on the left side of the vehicle in the

rear.

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.

You can be burned or seriously injured

when handling fuel.

2. Turn off the engine.

3. Unlock the driver’s door.

vehicle will unlock.

4. Press and release the area indicated by the

arrow to release the fuel fill door. You will

here a click and the lid will open slightly.

5. Manually pull the fuel fill door to a fully

open position.

Press

The fuel filler opening is designed to accept only

service station filler nozzles for refueling. Use of

smaller diameter tubes (e.g., those used to siphon

fuel for other uses) or other non-service station

devices can damage the area in and around the filler

opening.

Use the master door lock switch to unlock the fuel fill

door.

The vehicle doors and fuel fill door automatically

relock if the keyless remote unlock function is used.

This can be deactivated by briefly opening then

closing the driver’s door.

6. Place the end of the filler nozzle on the

lower part of filler opening, then insert it

slowly and fully.

u Make sure that the end of the filler

nozzle goes down along with the filler

pipe.

u Keep the filler nozzle level.

u When the tank is full, the filler nozzle will

click off automatically.

1How to Refuel

If the filler nozzle keeps turning off when the tank is

not full, there may be a problem with the pump’s fuel

vapor recovery system. Try filling at another pump. If

this does not fix the problem, consult a dealer.

The filler nozzle automatically stops to leave space in

the fuel tank so that fuel does not overflow as a result

of changes in air temperature.

Do not continue to add fuel after the filler nozzle has

automatically stopped. Additional fuel can exceed

the full tank capacity.

1.5 L engine models

u If you do not fill up the tank to full,

always add a minimum of 1.3 US gal (5 L)

of fuel.

If you have to refuel your vehicle from a portable

container, use the funnel provided with your vehicle.

u After filling, wait about five seconds

before removing the filler nozzle.

7. Shut the fuel fill door by hand.

If you repeatedly fill the tank with less than the

specified minimum amount of fuel, the malfunction

indicator lamp may come on. If this happens, have

your vehicle checked by a dealer.

Fuel Economy and CO₂Emissions

Improving Fuel Economy and Reducing CO₂Emissions

Achieving fuel economy and reducing CO₂emissions is dependent on several

factors, including driving conditions, load weight, idling time, driving habits, and

vehicle condition. Depending on these and other factors, you may not achieve the

rated fuel economy of this vehicle.

You can optimize your fuel economy with proper maintenance of your vehicle.

Always maintain your vehicle in accordance with the messages displayed on the

driver information interface.

• Use engine oil with the viscosity recommended.

2 Recommended Engine Oil P. 551

In Canada, posted fuel economy numbers are

established following a simulated test. For more

information on how this test is performed, please visit

https://www.nrcan.gc.ca and search for “fuel

consumption testing” in the search field at the top of

the page.

• Maintain the specified tire pressure.

• Do not load the vehicle with excess cargo.

• Keep your vehicle clean. A buildup of snow or mud on your vehicle’s underside

adds weight and increases wind resistance.
