To remove the fuel cap, turn it slowly counterclockwise.
The fuel cap has a spring in it; if the cap is released
too soon, it will spring back to the right.
While refueling, hang the tethered fuel cap from the
hook on the fuel door.
{CAUTION:
Fuel can spray out on you if you open the
fuel cap too quickly. If you spill fuel and then
something ignites it, you could be badly burned.
This spray can happen if your tank is nearly full,
and is more likely in hot weather. Open the fuel
cap slowly and wait for any hiss noise to stop.
Then unscrew the cap all the way.
Be careful not to spill fuel. Do not top off or overll the
tank and wait a few seconds after you have nished
pumping before removing the nozzle. Clean fuel
from painted surfaces as soon as possible.

When replacing the fuel cap, turn it clockwise until it
clicks. Make sure the cap is fully installed. The diagnostic
system can determine if the fuel cap has been left off or
improperly installed. This would allow fuel to evaporate
into the atmosphere. SeeMalfunction Indicator Lamp
on page 3-48.
If your vehicle has a Driver Information Center (DIC),
the TIGHTEN GAS CAP message will be displayed if the
fuel cap is not properly installed.
{CAUTION:
If a re starts while you are refueling, do not
remove the nozzle. Shut off the ow of fuel by
shutting off the pump or by notifying the
station attendant. Leave the area immediately.
Notice:If you need a new fuel cap, be sure to get
the right type. Your dealer/retailer can get one
for you. If you get the wrong type, it may not t
properly. This may cause your malfunction indicator
lamp to light and may damage your
fuel tank and emissions system. SeeMalfunction
Indicator Lamp on page 3-48.
Filling a Portable Fuel Container
{CAUTION:
Never ll a portable fuel container while it is in
your vehicle. Static electricity discharge from
the container can ignite the fuel vapor. You can
be badly burned and your vehicle damaged if
this occurs. To help avoid injury to you and
others:
Dispense fuel only into approved
containers.
Do not ll a container while it is inside a
vehicle, in a vehicle’s trunk, pickup bed,
or on any surface other than the ground.
Bring the ll nozzle in contact with the
inside of the ll opening before operating
the nozzle. Contact should be maintained
until the lling is complete.
Do not smoke while pumping fuel.
Do not use a cellular phone while
pumping fuel.

cooling system, including the upper radiator hose,
is no longer hot. Turn the pressure cap slowly
counterclockwise about one full turn. If you hear a
hiss, wait for that to stop. A hiss means there is still
some pressure left.3. Keep turning the
pressure cap slowly,
and remove it.
4. Fill the radiator with the proper DEX-COOL®
coolant mixture, up to the base of the ller
neck. SeeEngine Coolant on page 5-20for

The tire valve stem must be positioned between the
3 and 9 o’clock positions.
4. Remove the valve stem cap from the at tire by
turning it counterclockwise.
5. Attach the sealant/air hose (F) onto the tire valve
stem. Turn it clockwise until it is tight.
6. Unwrap and plug the air compressor accessory
plug (E) into an accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. SeeAccessory Power Outlet(s) on
page 3-21.
{CAUTION:
Overination could cause the tire to rupture,
and you or others could be injured. Be sure to
read the inator instructions, and inate the
tire to its recommended pressure. Do not
exceed 35 psi (248 kPa).
7. Start the vehicle. SeeStarting the Engine on
page 2-27. The vehicle must be running while using
the air compressor.
{CAUTION:
Overination could cause the tire to rupture,
and you or others could be injured. Be sure to

9. Push the On/Off button (B).
The tire sealant and compressor kit will inject
sealant and air into the tire. Sealant may leak from
the puncture until the vehicle is driven and the
hole has sealed.
The pressure gage (C) will initially show a high
pressure while the compressor pushes the sealant
into the tire. Once the sealant is completely
dispersed into the tire, the pressure will quickly drop
and start to rise again as the tire inates with air only.
10. Inate the tire to the recommended ination
pressure using the air pressure gage (E) on the top
of the unit. The recommended ination pressure
can be found on the Tire and Loading Information
label. SeeInflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-56.
The pressure gage reading is slightly high while the
compressor is on. Turn the compressor off to get
an accurate reading. The compressor may be turned
on and off until the correct pressure is reached.
Notice:If the recommended pressure cannot be
reached after 20 minutes, the vehicle should not
be driven farther. Damage to the tire is severe and
the sealant will not be effective. Remove the air
compressor plug from the accessory power outlet
and unscrew the inating hose from the tire valve.
SeeRoadside Assistance Program on page 7-7for
more information.11. Turn the compressor off by pushing the On/Off
switch (B).
Steps 12 through 20 must be done immediately
after Step 11.

is distributed in the tire.
Be careful while handling the tire sealant and
compressor kit as they could be hot after usage.
12. Unplug the air compressor accessory plug (E) from
the accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
13. Disconnect the sealant/air hose (F) from the tire
valve stem by turning it counterclockwise and
replace the tire valve stem cap.
14. Wrap the sealant/air hose (F) around the air
compressor channel to stow it in its original location.
15. Stow the air compressor accessory plug (E)
back into place.

17. Place it in a highly visible location such as the
inside of the upper left corner of the windshield
or to the face of the radio/clock.
The maximum speed label reminds you to drive
cautiously and not to exceed 55 mph (90 km/h) until
you have the damaged tire inspected and repaired.
