The fuel filler flap is locked and unlocked together with
the doors and liftgate using the electronic key.
Open flap by pulling at rear (arrow). Turn fuel cap to the

been released, then remove cap. Failure to remove

The fuel filler cap is tethered to the fuel filler neck. Do
not drop the cap. It could damage the vehicle paint
finish.
Manual release of fuel filler flap, see page 295.

When refueling vehicle make certain that no gasoline
comes into contact with plastic taillamp, to prevent
