AKENG44_Escalade Page 292 Wednesday, July 16, 2008 12:22 PM Service and Maintenance CAUTION Some additives are not compatible with E-85 fuel and may harm your fuel system. Damage caused by the use of additives may not be covered by your new vehicle warranty. Do not use additives with E-85 fuel. You may use either regular unleaded gasoline or ethanol fuel up to 85% (E-85). E-85 fuel is a blend of approximately 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline. E-85 is a highoctane, renewable fuel made primarily from corn. At a minimum, ethanol fuel should meet ASTM D 5798 specifications. Fuel labeled E-85 that meets the ASTM D 5798 specifications will contain 70% to 85% ethanol. Note: Filling the fuel tank with fuel mixtures that do not meet ASTM specifications can affect driveability and could cause the malfunction indicator light to come on. See "Malfunction Indicator Light" under "Indicator and Warning Lights" in Section 1 for more information. Because your vehicle's fuel system is compatible with ethanol fuel, the fuel cap will be yellow with "E-85 or gasoline" (E-85 or gasoline) printed on it. Your vehicle automatically detects the current fuel mixture in the fuel tank and adjusts the engine settings accordingly. You can fill the tank with gasoline or E-85, regardless of which fuel is already in the tank. . . . 292
AKENG44_Escalade Page 293 Wednesday, July 16, 2008 12:22 PM Section 4 E-85 fuel offers less energy than gasoline, so you will need to refill your tank more often when using E-85.If you have trouble starting your vehicle while using E-85 fuel, switch to regular gasoline or add gasoline to the ethanol fuel in your fuel tank. When switching between gasoline and E-85 fuel, add at least 11 L (2.9 U.S. gallons) of fuel. Drive the vehicle immediately after fueling for a minimum of 11 km (7 miles). Switching repeatedly between gasoline and E-85 fuel is not recommended. To ensure quick starts in cold weather, the E-85 fuel should be formulated properly for your climate. For good starting and heater efficiency at temperatures below 0°C, the fuel mix in your vehicle should contain a maximum of 70% ethanol.

Service and Maintenance<br />
CAUTION<br />
Some additives are not compatible<br />
with E-85 fuel and may<br />
harm your fuel system. Damage<br />
caused by the use <strong>of</strong> additives<br />
may not be covered by your<br />
new vehicle warranty. Do not<br />
use additives with E-85 fuel.<br />
You may use either regular<br />
unleaded gasoline or ethanol fuel<br />
up to 85% (E-85).<br />
E-85 fuel is a blend <strong>of</strong><br />
approximately 85% ethanol<br />
and 15% gasoline. E-85 is a highoctane,<br />
renewable fuel made<br />
primarily from corn.<br />
At a minimum, ethanol fuel should<br />
meet ASTM D 5798 specifications.<br />
Fuel labeled E-85 that meets the<br />
ASTM D 5798 specifications will<br />
contain 70% to 85% ethanol.<br />
Note:<br />
Filling the fuel tank with fuel<br />
mixtures that do not meet<br />
ASTM specifications can affect<br />
driveability and could cause the<br />
malfunction indicator light to<br />
come on.<br />
See "Malfunction Indicator<br />
Light" under "Indicator and<br />
Warning Lights" in Section 1 for<br />
more information.<br />
Because your vehicle's fuel system<br />
is compatible with ethanol fuel,<br />
the fuel cap will be yellow with<br />
"E-85 or gasoline" (E-85 or<br />
gasoline) printed on it.<br />
Your vehicle automatically detects<br />
the current fuel mixture in the fuel<br />
tank and adjusts the engine<br />
settings accordingly. You can fill<br />
the tank with gasoline or E-85,<br />
regardless <strong>of</strong> which fuel is already<br />
in the tank.<br />
