314 STARTING AND OPERATING
REFUELING THE VEHICLE
The Capless Fuel System uses a flapper placed at the filler
pipe of the fuel tank; it opens and closes automatically upon
insertion/extraction of the fuel nozzle. The Capless Fuel
System is designed so that it prevents the filling of an incor
-
rect type of fuel.
1. Open the fuel filler door by pushing on the outer edge of
the fuel door.

2. There is no fuel filler cap. A flapper door inside the pipe
seals the system.
3. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe; the nozzle
opens and holds the flapper door while refueling.
4. Fill the vehicle with fuel, and when the fuel nozzle
“clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full.
5. Wait 10 seconds before removing the fuel nozzle to allow
fuel to drain from nozzle.
6. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel door.
