Fuel can spray out if the fuel
cap is opened too quickly.
This spray can happen if the
tank is nearly full, and is
more likely in hot weather.

then unscrew the cap all
the way
The tethered fuel cap is located
behind a hinged fuel door on the
passenger side of the vehicle. To
open the fuel door, push the
rearward center edge in and release
and it will open.
To remove the fuel cap, turn it
slowly counterclockwise.

lamp could turn on. See Malfunction
Indicator Lamp on page 5-17.

pumping before removing the
nozzle. Clean fuel from painted
