Filling Your Tank The cap is behind the fuel door on the left side of
your vehicle.
1 A CAUTION:
Gasoline vapor is highly flammable. It burns
violently, and that can cause very bad injuries.
Don’t
smoke if you’re near gasoline or refueling
your vehicle. Keep sparks, flames and
smoking
materials away from gasoline.
While refueling, hang the cap by the tether from the pin
on the fuel door.
To remove the cap, turn it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise). The cap
has a spring in it; if you let
go of the cap too soon, it will spring back to the right.

At Least Twice a Year
Restraint System Check
Make sure the safety belt reminder light and all your
belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors and anchorages are working properly. If your vehicle has
a built-in child
restraint, also periodically make sure the harness straps, latch plates, buckle, clip, retractors and anchorages
are
working properly. Look for any other loose or damaged
safety belt and built-in child restraint system parts. If
you see anything that might keep a safety belt or built-in
child restraint system from doing its job, have it
repaired. Have any torn or frayed safety belts or harness
straps replaced.
Also look for any opened or broken air bag coverings,
and have them repaired or replaced. (The air bag system
does not need regular maintenance.)
Wiper Blade Check
Inspect wiper blades for wear or cracking. Replace blade
inserts that appear
worn or damaged or that streak or
miss areas of the windshield. Also see “Wiper Blades,
Cleaning” in the Index.
Automatic Transaxle Check
Check the transaxle fluid level; add if needed. See
“Automatic Transaxle” in the Index. A fluid loss may
indicate a problem. Check the system and repair if needed.
At Least Once a Year
