When you put the fuel cap back on, turn it to the right
(clockwise) until you hear a clicking sound. Make
sure you fully install the cap.
The
diagnostic
system can
determine
if
the fuel cap has been left off
or
improperly
installed. This would
allow
fuel
to
evaporate into the
atmosphere. See
Malfunction Indicator Lamp on
page
3-50.
The CHECK GAS CAP message in the Driver
Information Center
(DIC)
will come
on
if
the fuel cap is
not properly reinstalled.
Notice:
If you need a new fuel cap, be sure to get the
right type. Your dealer can get one for you. If you get
the wrong type,
it
may not fit properly. This may
cause your malfunction indicator lamp to light and
may damage your fuel tank and emissions system.
See “Malfunction Indicator Lamp’’ in the Index.
