Additional Information
Fuel
Use regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI or higher. Consult the Owner’s
Manual for more detailed information.
Fuel Capacity
• 16.6 US gal (63 liters, 13.9 lmp gal)
• When the low fuel indicator light is displayed on the instrument panel, approximately
2.5 US gallons (9.5 liters, 2.1 Imp gal) of fuel remain.
• If you have recently fueled your vehicle, the Check Engine light on the instrument panel
may stay on due to a missing or loose fuel filler cap (the cap should be tightened until
a click is heard).
Fuel Filler Lid Release
To unlock the fuel filler lid, unlock your vehicle with the key fob or
power door lock switch, or turn the ignition switch to ACC or
LOCK/OFF. Push the rear side of the fuel filler lid to open it, then
open it fully by hand. To close the fuel door, press on the door until
you hear it latch.
