Service Station Procedures

3. Remove the fuel fill cap slowly.

You may hear a hissing sound as

pressure inside the tank escapes.

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.

Your car has an on-board refueling

vapor recovery system to help

keep fuel vapors from going into

the atmosphere. If the fuel pump

keeps clicking off even though the

tank is not full, there may be a

problem with this system. Consult

your dealer.

5. Screw the fuel fill cap back on,

tighten it until it clicks several

times. If you do not properly

tighten the cap, the Malfunction

Indicator Lamp may come on (see

page

311

).

6. Push the fuel fill door closed until

it latches.

Before Driving

FUEL FILL CAP

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.
