The fuel-filler cap is a ratcheting type. Turn the
cap counterclockwise to remove. To tighten, turn

while
refueling.
WARNING
Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the
cap a third of a turn, and wait for any
“hissing” sound to stop to prevent fuel
from spraying out and possibly causing
personal injury. Then remove the cap.
Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has a
built-in safety valve needed for proper
operation of the fuel system and emis-
sion control system. An incorrect cap
can result in a serious malfunction and
possible injury. It could also cause the
malfunction indicator lamp to come on.
Never pour fuel into the throttle body to
attempt to start your vehicle.
Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable fuel
containers:
Always place the container on the
ground when filling.
Do not use electronic devices when
filling.
Keep the pump nozzle in contact
with the container while you are fill-
ing it.
Use only approved portable fuel con-
tainers for flammable liquid.
