GENERAL INFORMATION
Your vehicle is designed to operate on gasoline or Com-
pressed Natural Gas (CNG). Compressed Natural Gas is
made up primarily of methane and is in a gaseous state at
all times.
The manufacturer’s built vehicles equipped with com-
pressed natural gas fueled engines are identified by the
character T in the eighth (engine) position of the Vehicle
Identification Number (V.I.N.).
SAFETY WARNINGS
Natural gas is safe and reliable, when used properly. For
safe operation of your vehicle, observe the following
precautions:
WARNING!
•
Your vehicle fuel system has a maximum capacity of
3,600 pounds per square inch gauge (24.8 MPa) com-
pensated to a temperature of 70° F (21° C). The vehicle
should only be filled from refueling equipment incor-
porating temperature compensation to 70° F (21° C).

WARNING! (Continued)
Exceeding the fuel system capacity may result in fuel
system damage and possibly cause injury.
•
Do not attempt to force open or tamper with the fuel
fill receptacle. A sudden release of natural gas may
occur, possibly causing injury.
•
Natural gas contains an odorant additive and persis-
tent natural gas odor may indicate a leak. If a
persistent natural odor is detected, the cause should
be located and corrected immediately by a qualified
technician.
•
Do not park or service your vehicle near any source
of excessive heat or open flame. Never use a paint
oven to cure any paint repairs. The natural gas
storage containers on this vehicle are equipped with
pressure relief devices which vent at 230° F (110° C).
•
Do not paint or under coat any natural gas fuel
system components. Unlike gasoline, a compressed
natural gas fuel system is under very high pressure
even when the engine is not running. To avoid risk of
personal injury, any repair to the fuel system should
be performed by a qualified technician.
