Driving and Operating

9-41

To open the fuel door, push the
rearward center edge in and release
and it will open.

To remove the fuel cap, turn it
slowly counterclockwise. The fuel
cap has a spring in it; if the cap is
released too soon, it will spring back
to the right.

While refueling, hang the tethered
fuel cap from the hook on the
fuel door.

{

WARNING

Fuel can spray out on you if you
open the fuel cap too quickly.
If you spill fuel and then
something ignites it, you could
be badly burned. This spray can
happen if the tank is nearly full,
and is more likely in hot weather.
Open the fuel cap slowly and wait
for any hiss noise to stop. Then
unscrew the cap all the way.

Be careful not to spill fuel. Do not
top off or overfill the tank and wait a
few seconds after you have finished
pumping before removing the
nozzle. Clean fuel from painted
surfaces as soon as possible. See

Exterior Care on page 10

81

.

When replacing the fuel cap, turn
it clockwise until it clicks. Make
sure the cap is fully installed. The

diagnostic system can determine
if the fuel cap has been left off or
improperly installed. This would
allow fuel to evaporate into the
atmosphere. See

Malfunction

Indicator Lamp on page 5

{

WARNING

If a fire starts while you are
refueling, do not remove the
nozzle. Shut off the flow of fuel by
shutting off the pump or by
notifying the station attendant.
Leave the area immediately.

Notice:

If a new fuel cap is

needed, be sure to get the right
type of cap from your dealer. The
wrong type of fuel cap might not
fit properly, might cause the
malfunction indicator lamp to
light, and could damage the fuel
tank and emissions system. See
