Mazda 3 2018 - Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap

Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
WARNING
When removing the fuel-ller cap, loosen
the cap slightly and wait for any hissing to
stop, then remove it:
Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can burn skin
and eyes and cause illness if ingested. Fuel
spray is released when there is pressure in
the fuel tank and the
fuel-ller
cap is
removed too quickly.
Before refueling, stop the engine, and
always keep sparks and
ames
away from
the ller neck:
Fuel vapor is dangerous. It could be ignited
by sparks or ames causing serious burns
and injuries.
Additionally, use of the incorrect fuel-ller
cap or not using a fuel-ller cap may result
in a fuel leak, which could result in serious
burns or death in an accident.
Do not continue refueling after the fuel
pump nozzle shuts o automatically:
Continuing to add fuel after the fuel pump
nozzle has shut o automatically is
dangerous because overlling the fuel tank
may cause fuel overow or leakage. Fuel
overow and leakage could damage the
vehicle and if the fuel ignites it could cause
a re and explosion resulting in serious
injury or death.
CAUTION
(U.S.A. and Canada)
Always use only a genuine Mazda fuel-ller
cap or an approved equivalent, available at
an Authorized Mazda Dealer. The wrong
cap can result in a serious malfunction of
the fuel and emission control systems. It
may also cause the check engine light in
the instrument cluster to illuminate.
