FUEL FILLER CAP fig. 58
The cap B is provided with a loss
prevention device C which secures
it to the lid A.
Using the ignition key, undo the cap B
turning it counterclockwise. The sealing
may cause a slight pressure increase
in the tank. A little breathing off, while
slackening the cap is absolutely normal.
When refuelling, fasten the cap to
the device inside the flap as shown
in the diagram.
