Service Station Procedures

Filling the Fuel Tank

1. Because the fuel fill cap is on the

driver's side of the vehicle, park

with that side closest to the

service station pumps.

2. Open the fuel fill door by pulling

on the handle at the outside of the

driver's seat.

3. Remove the fuel fill cap slowly.

You may hear a hissing sound as

pressure inside the tank escapes.

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.

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

283

).

6. Push the fuel fill door closed until

it latches.

Before Driving

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.
