2007 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN open gas tank

NOTE: The driver’s side sliding door cannot be opened
while the fuel door is open. This feature operates only
when the sliding door is fully closed prior to opening the
fuel door.
As a reminder, a fuel icon with an arrow “
”
indicating which side of the vehicle the fuel filler
door is located on, is located in the instrument
cluster, just below the Fuel Gage.
The fuel tank filler tube has a restricting door about 2
inches (50 mm) inside the opening. If using a portable
fuel container, it should have a flexible nozzle long
enough to force open the restricting door. CAUTION!Damage to the fuel system or emission control
system could result from using an improper fuel
tank filler tube cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap
could let impurities into the fuel system and may
cause the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to turn
on due to fuel vapors escaping from the system.
CAUTION!To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top
off” the fuel tank after filling.358 STARTING AND OPERATING

cause serious personal injury. Never have any smok-
ing materials lit in or near the vehicle when remov-
ing the fuel filler tube cap (gas cap) or filling the
tank. Do not use E-85 as a cleaning agent and never
use it near an open flame.
