MSEL setup with Cyclone III part

Hi, We are working on a board including a Cyclone III FPGA. The MSEL pin belong to bank 6 which VCCIO in our design is 1.8V. Is it still valid to use a 2.5V voltage with this configuration ? If...

I did'nt find this quote in the document you linked.

On the other hand the signals to the configuration device use the VCCIO levels of the bank they are in.
