Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)

The ABS system in your car performs a self-diagnostic test when the vehicle first reaches the speed of approximately
12 mph (20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from the ABS control
module. This is normal.

Fuel filler door

Press the button on the light switch panel (see

page 37

) when the car is at a standstill to unlock the fuel filler door.

Please note that the fuel filler door will remain unlocked until the car begins to move forward. An audible click will be
heard when the fuel filler door relocks.

Fuel filler cap

After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place. If this cap is not closed tightly
or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp ("Check Engine" light) may
indicate a fault.

WARNING! If your vehicle is involved in an accident, unseen damage may affect your vehicle's driveability and
safety.
