FUEL FILLER CAPThe fuel filler cap is a ratcheting type. Tighten the
cap clockwise until ratcheting clicks are heard.
Hang the string of the cap on the hook as shown
while refueling.
WARNING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seri-
ously injured if it is misused ormishandled. Always stop the engine
and do not smoke or allow open
flames or sparks near the vehicle
when refueling.

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 possible per-
sonal injury. Then remove the cap.

Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle shutsoff 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 emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury. It
could also cause the
malfunc-
tion indicator lamp to come on.

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
while filling.
