NOTE:
Only the correct size nozzle opens the latches allowing the flapper door to open.
5. Fill the vehicle with fuel – when the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off the fuel tank is full.
6. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel door .
NOTE:
A funnel is provided (located in the trunk in the spare tire area) to open the flapper door
to allow for emergency refueling with a gas can.
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top off” the fuel tank after filling.
WARNING!
• Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the fuel door is
open or the tank is being filled.
• Never add fuel when the engine is running. This is in violation of most state and
federal fire regulations and may cause the “Malfunction Indicator Light” to turn on.
• A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always place fuel containers on the ground while
filling.
