General information

3. Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turning the cap

anticlockwise.

4. To fill with fuel correctly depends mainly on correct han-

dling of the fuel filler gun. Do not tilt the gun. Insert the

gun in the tank port as far as it goes.

5. When the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel

any more.

6. To close, turn the fuel tank filler tube cap slowly clock-

wise until you hear clicking sounds, then gently push the

fuel tank filler door closed.

A- Remove

B- Close

CAUTION

●

Since the fuel system may be under pressure,

remove the fuel tank filler tube cap slowly. This
relieves any pressure or vacuum that might have

built up in the fuel tank. If the cap is venting vapor

or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops
before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray

out, injuring you or others.

CAUTION

●

A label which reads “UNLEADED FUEL ONLY” is

attached to the fuel tank filler lid of vehicles which

can only operate using unleaded petrol. Serious
engine and catalytic converter damage will result if

leaded petrol is filled into these vehicles, and conse-

quently, this must never be attempted.

CAUTION

●

To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top-

off” the fuel tank.

CAUTION

●

If you need to replace the fuel tank filler tube cap,

use only the cap specified for your model vehicle.
