been specially designed to work safely with
your vehicle.

The funnel is located in the rear of the
vehicle, inside the load compartment,
underneath the load floor carpet and is
accessible from the trunk.

seal, and may cause fuel to run onto the
ground instead of filling the tank, which
could result in serious personal injury.
