Open the fuel fill door by pulling
on the handle to the left of the
driver’s seat.

Because the fuel fill cap is on the
driver’s side of the car, park with
that side closest to the service
station pumps.

Remove the fuel fill cap slowly.
You may hear a hissing sound as
pressure inside the tank escapes.
Put the attachment on the fuel fill
cap into the slit on the fuel fill door.

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.

Your car has an on-board refueling
vapor recovery system to help keep
fuel vapors from going into the
atmosphere. If the fuel nozzle keeps
clicking off even though the tank is
not full, there may be a problem with
this system. Consult your dealer.
