ADDING FUEL

Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap)

The gas cap is located behind the fuel filler door above
the rear tire on the passenger side of the vehicle. To access
the gas cap, grasp the finger pull (on the left side of the
fuel filler door) and pull it open. The door will pivot
toward the front of the vehicle.

NOTE:

• When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel

tank is full.

• The fuel tank filler tube has a restricting door about

2 inches (50 mm) inside the opening. If using a
portable container to add fuel, it must have a flexible
nozzle long enough to force open the restricting door.

CAUTION!

Damage to the fuel system or emission control

system could result from using an improper fuel
tank filler tube cap (gas cap).

A poorly fitting gas cap could let impurities into

the fuel system.

A poorly fitting gas cap may cause the Malfunc-

tion Indicator Light to turn on.

To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top

off” the fuel tank after filling. When the fuel
nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full.
