If you did not close the fuel fill inlet
properly, a Check Fuel Fill Inlet message
may appear on the information display. At
the next opportunity, do the following:
1. Safely pull off the road.
2. Put the vehicle in park (P) and switch
the ignition off.
3. Open the fuel filler door and remove
any visible debris from the fuel fill
opening.
4. Insert the fuel fill nozzle or the fuel fill
funnel, provided with the vehicle,
several times to dislodge any debris
and allow the inlet to close properly.
If this action corrects the problem, the
message may not reset immediately. It
may take several driving cycles for the
message to turn off. A driving cycle
consists of an engine start-up (after four
or more hours with the engine off) followed
by city or highway driving. Continuing to
drive with the message on may cause the
service engine soon lamp to turn on as
well.
Using the manual override lever
WARNING
The fuel system may be under
pressure. Insert the fuel nozzle
slowly. If you hear a hissing sound
near the fuel filler door, do not refuel until
the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel may spray
out, which could cause serious personal
injury.
Note: The vehicle must be in park (P) when
using the manual override feature.
The manual override lever is located inside
of the luggage compartment on the right
rear side panel.
When using the fuel door manual override
to access the fuel fill inlet:
1. Switch the ignition on prior to using the
manual override.
2. Remove the panel located in luggage
compartment on the right rear area of
the vehicle hatch.
