Use the following guidelines to avoid
electrostatic charge build-up, which can
produce a spark, when filling an ungrounded
fuel container:
•
Place approved fuel container on the
ground.
•
Do not fill a fuel container while it is in
the vehicle (including the cargo area).
•
Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact
with the fuel container while filling.
•
Do not use a device that would hold the
fuel pump handle in the fill position.

WARNING
The fuel system may be under
pressure. If you hear a hissing sound
near the fuel filler door, do not refuel until
the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel may spray
out, which could cause serious personal
injury.
When fueling your vehicle:
1. When your vehicle has stopped, shift into
park (P) and switch the ignition off.
2. Fully open the fuel tank filler door until it
engages.

close the fuel tank filler door.
Note: A fuel spillage concern may occur if
overfilling the fuel tank. Do not overfill the
tank. The fill pipe is equipped with a drain
hole. Excess fuel due to overfill may drain
through the drain hole and drip onto the
ground.
If the fuel fill inlet was not properly closed, a
service engine warning lamp may appear on
the instrument cluster.
