2018 Honda Fit Owners Manual - Refueling



Refueling

Use the proper fuel and refueling procedure to ensure the best performance and safety of your vehicle.

Fuel Information

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.
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.

How to Refuel

  1. The fuel fill door is located at the left rear of the vehicle. Park next to the service pump that is most accessible.
  2. Turn off the engine.
  3. Pull the fuel fill door release handle under the lower left corner of the dashboard. The fuel fill door opens.
     
  4. Turn the fuel fill cap slowly to open. Place the fuel fill cap in the holder.
     
  5. Insert the filler nozzle fully. When the tank is full, the fuel nozzle clicks off automatically.
  6. Replace the fuel fill cap. Tighten it until you hear at least one click. Close the fuel fill door.

WARNING

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.

  • Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
  • Handle fuel only outdoors.
  • Wipe up spills immediately.
