CAUTION!
(Continued)
To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must
be driven slowly when using ParkView to
be able to stop in time when an obstacle is
seen. It is recommended that the driver
look frequently over his/her shoulder when
using ParkView.
NOTE:
If snow, ice, mud or any foreign substance
builds up on the camera lens, clean the lens,
rinse with water and dry with a soft cloth. Do
not cover the lens.
ADDING FUEL
Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap)
The gas cap is behind the fuel filler door, on the
left side of the vehicle. If the gas cap is lost or
damaged, be sure the replacement cap is for
use with this vehicle.
After removing the gas cap, place the gas cap
tether cable over a hook on the inside of the fuel
door. This keeps the gas cap suspended away
from and protects the vehicle’s surface.
CAUTION!
Damage to the fuel system or emission
control system could result from using an
improper fuel tank filler cap. A poorly fitting
cap could let impurities into the fuel sys-
tem.
A poorly fitting fuel filler cap may cause the
“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” to turn
on.
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 gas cap is
removed 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 MIL to
turn on.
A fire may result if gasoline is pumped into
a portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned.Always place
gas containers on the ground while filling.
NOTE:
When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off,
the fuel tank is full.
Tighten the gas cap about ¼ turn until you
hear one click. This is an indication that
cap is properly tightened.
If the gas cap is not tightened properly,
the MIL will come on. Be sure the gas cap
is tightened every time the vehicle is
refueled.
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message
If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that
the fuel filler cap is loose or improperly installed,
a “gASCAP” message will be displayed in the
Odometer/Trip Odometer in the instrument clus-
ter. Refer to “Warning And Indicator Lights” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information. Tighten the fuel filler cap
