NOTICE:
If you need a new cap, be sure to get the right
type. Your dealer can get one for you. If you get
the wrong type, it may not fit properly. This may
cause your malfunction indicator lamp to light
and your fuel tank and emissions system may be
damaged. See ªMalfunction Indicator Lampº in
the Index.
Fuel Door Lock (Option)
On models equipped with the theft-deterrent system,
the fuel door is locked and unlocked together with the
driver's power door lock. Therefore, to unlock the fuel
filler door, you may use the inside power door lock
button or the remote keyless entry transmitter
(if equipped). To unlock the fuel door, unlock the
driver's door.
If your vehicle has a fuel
door lock, the fuel door
can be opened manually
in case of an electrical
power failure.
Open the trunk. The release mechanism is on the
driver's side of the vehicle, at the top of the trunk
compartment. Pull the tab to release the fuel door.
NOTICE:
Prying on a locked fuel filler door can damage it.
Use the remote fuel door manual release located
in the trunk.
