Refilling With a Portable Fuel Container
WARNING: Do not insert the nozzle of portable fuel containers
or aftermarket funnels the fuel system. This could damage the
fuel system and its seal, and may cause fuel to run onto the ground
instead of filling the tank, which could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING: Do not try to pry open or push open the fuel system
with foreign objects. This could damage the fuel system and its
seal and cause injury to you or others.
Use the following directions when filling from a portable fuel container:
1. Remove the fuel cap by rotating it counter clockwise.
2. Slowly insert the portable fuel container into the fuel filler opening.
3. Fill the vehicle with fuel from the portable fuel container.
4. When done, remove the portable fuel container nozzle and reinstall
fuel cap. Insert fuel cap into fuel filler opening and turn clockwise until a
click is heard.

• Turn off your engine when you are refueling.
• Do not smoke if you are near fuel or refueling your vehicle.

Use the following guidelines to avoid electrostatic charge build-up when
filling an ungrounded fuel container:
• Place approved fuel container on the ground.
