CAUTION!

Damage to the fuel system or emission control
system could result from using an improper fuel
tank filler tube cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap
could let impurities into the fuel system.

WARNING!

Remove the fuel tank filler tube cap (gas cap)

slowly to prevent fuel spray from the filler neck
which may cause injury.

The volatility of some fuels may cause a buildup

of pressure in the fuel tank that may increase
while you drive. This pressure can result in a
spray of fuel and/or vapors when the cap is
removed from a hot vehicle. Removing the cap
slowly allows the pressure to vent and prevents
fuel spray.

Never have any smoking materials lit in or near

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

Never add fuel to the vehicle when the engine is

running.
