If your fuel fill cap is loose or
missing, a ‘‘CHECK FUEL CAP’’
message appears in the odometer
display after you start the engine.
The message goes from CHECK to
FUEL CAP repeatedly. You will also
hear a beep.
Turn the engine off, and confirm the
fuel fill cap is installed. If it is, loosen
the cap, then retighten it at least 3
clicks. When you restart the engine,
the message appears again. To clear
the message, press and hold the
RESET button until the odometer
display returns.
If the system still detects a loose or
missing fuel fill cap, the malfunction
indicator lamp (MIL) comes on.
Turn the engine off, and check or
retighten the fuel fill cap at least 3
clicks. The MIL goes out after 3 days
of normal driving once the cap is
tightened or replaced. If it does not
go out, have your dealer inspect the
vehicle. For more information, see
page .
The information display in the
instrument panel shows you the
engine oil life and maintenance
service items when the ignition
switch is in the ON (II) position. This
information helps to keep you aware
of the periodic maintenance your
vehicle needs for continued trouble-
free driving. Refer to page for
more information.
