PRE-DRIVING OPERATIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Fuel Tank Filler Cap
WARNING
• Be sure to switch the power mode to "ACC" or "OFF" (models with passive entry
and start system) or to turn the starter switch to the "ACC" or "LOCK" position
(models without passive entry and start system) to stop the engine before
refueling the vehicle. Refueling while the engine is running could cause a fire in
your vehicle.
• Open the fuel tank filler cap slowly. If you open it quickly, the fuel tank pressure
may cause fuel to spurt out.
• When refueling, never smoke or place any ignition source nearby. There is a risk
of fire.
• After refueling, make sure that the fuel tank filler cap is tightly closed.
• Do not use any fuel tank filler cap that is not an Isuzu genuine part.
The use of an improper fuel tank filler cap could cause fuel spillage in the event
of an accident. The use of an improper fuel tank filler cap could also affect the
fuel system and the emission control system.
• Be sure to wipe off the fuel that is spilled at refueling.
• Use diesel fuel that is specified by the relevant vehicle emission standards.
For specified diesel fuel, check "Recommended Fluids, Lubricants and Diesel
Fuels".
• Do not add or mix in poor quality fuels, or gasoline, kerosene, alcohol-based
fuels, or any fuels that are not diesel, or water removing agents or other
fuel additives. Starting the engine with inappropriate fuel in the tank is very
dangerous because it may adversely affect the fuel filter and cause poor
movement of fuel-lubricated parts in the injectors, in addition to adversely
affecting engine components, and could possibly result in a breakdown or even
a fire.
• If inappropriate fuel is accidentally added to the tank, drain it out completely.
