regular-grade unleaded gasoline and fill
the rest with premium-grade unleaded
gasoline as soon as possible.

• avoid sudden acceleration.
• if the vehicle is carrying a light load, e.g. two passengers without luggage,
do not

• if the vehicle is fully loaded or is being
operated in mountainous terrain, do not
depress the accelerator pedal further
than 2/3 of the pedal travel.
