When fueling your vehicle:
1. Put the vehicle in P (Park) and turn the ignition off.
2. Press the fuel button located on
the instrument panel.
3. Wait up to 15 seconds before
opening the fuel filler door. During
this time a Please Wait to Refuel
message will appear in the
information display screen.
Note: When the door is open a Ready to Refuel message will appear in
the information display screen indicating that the vehicle is ready to be
filled. The vehicle will remain ready to refuel for approximately
15 minutes. If more than 15 minutes is exceeded, the refueling button
will need to be pressed again. (You may experience the fuel pump
shutting off if the refuel button is not pressed again).
4. Slowly insert the fuel filler nozzle
fully into the fuel system, and leave
the nozzle fully inserted to open
both doors until you are done
pumping. Hold handle higher during
insertion for easier access.
5. After you are done pumping fuel,
slowly remove the fuel filler
nozzle—allow about five to ten
seconds after pumping fuel before
removing the fuel filler nozzle. This
allows residual fuel to drain back
into the fuel tank and not spill onto
the vehicle.
