Refueling

1. Park with the driver's side closest

to the service station pump.

2. Open the fuel fill door by pressing

the button in the driver's door. (To
open the fuel fill door manually,
see page 568.)

3. Remove the fuel fill cap slowly.

You may hear a hissing sound as
pressure inside the tank equalizes.
Place the cap in the holder on the
fuel fill door.

4. Stop filling the tank after the fuel

nozzle automatically clicks off. Do
not try to

‘‘top off’’ the tank. Leave

some room for the fuel to expand
with temperature changes.

If the fuel nozzle keeps clicking off

even

though the tank is not full, there may
be a problem with your vehicle's fuel
vapor recovery system. The system
helps keep fuel vapor from going into
the atmosphere. Try filling at another
pump. If this does not fix the
problem, consult your dealer.

Gasoline is highly flammable
and explosive. You can be
burned or seriously injured
when handling fuel.

Stop the engine, and keep
heat, sparks, and flame
away.

Handle fuel only outdoors.

Wipe up spills immediately.
