WARNING!

Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the

vehicle when the gas cap is removed or the tank is
being filled.

Never add fuel to the vehicle when the engine is

running.

A fire may result if gasoline is pumped into a

portable container that is inside of a vehicle. You
could be burned. Always place gas containers on
the ground while filling.

Failure to follow this warning may result in serious

injury or death.

CAUTION!

Damage to the fuel system or emissions control

system could result from using an improper fuel
tank filler tube cap.

A poorly fitting fuel filler cap could let impurities

into the fuel system.

A poorly fitting fuel filler cap may cause the

“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” to turn on.

To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top

off” the fuel tank after filling. When the fuel
nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full.

NOTE:

• When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank

is full.

• Tighten the gas cap until you hear a “clicking” sound.

This is an indication that the gas cap is tightened
