Filling Your Tank
{CAUTION:
Fuel vapor burns violently and a fuel fire can
cause bad injuries. To help avoid injuries to
you and others, read and follow all the
instructions on the pump island. Turn off your
engine when you are refueling. Do not smoke
if you are near fuel or refueling your vehicle.
Keep sparks, flames and smoking materials
away from fuel. Do not leave the fuel pump
unattended when refueling your vehicle — this
is against the law in some places. Keep
children away from the fuel pump; never let
children pump fuel.
The fuel filler cap is
located behind a hinged
door on the passenger’s
side of your vehicle. It
is tethered to the door to
prevent loss while
refueling. Make sure that
water, snow, and dirt
are kept away from the
filler cap and filler
pipe nozzle.
To remove the fuel cap, turn it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise). It will require about 1/2 of a turn to
remove the cap. The fuel cap has a spring in it; if
you let go of the cap too soon, it will spring back to the
right (clockwise).
{CAUTION:
If you get fuel on yourself and then something
ignites it, you could be badly burned. Fuel can
spray out on you if you open the fuel cap too
quickly.
CAUTION: (Continued)
