1. To open the fuel filler door, pull the
door toward out as shown.
When refueling, turn off the engine.
CAUTION
Do not smoke, cause sparks or al-
low open flames when refueling.
The fumes are flammable.
When opening the cap, do not re-
move the cap quickly. In hot weath-
er, fuel under pressure could cause
injury by spraying out of the filler
neck if the cap is suddenly re-
moved.
Do not fill a fuel container in the
bed under any circumstances. A
static electricity charge could cause
a spark and fire hazard. The proper
procedure is to place an approved
fuel container on the ground away
from the truck for filling.

2. To remove the fuel tank cap, turnthe cap slowly counterclockwise,
then pause slightly before removing
it. After removing the cap, hang it
on the cap hanger.
It is not unusual to hear a slight swoosh
when the cap is opened.
When installing the cap, turn it clock-
wise until one click is heard, in order
to fully close it. The cap returns slight-
ly when your hand is released from the
cap after closure, however this does
not cause any problems.
If the cap is not tightened securely, the
malfunction indicator lamp comes on.
Make sure the cap is tightened securely.

OPERATING FROM OUTSIDE
The moon roof can be opened and closed
with the key operation in the driver’s door
keyhole.
To open: Turn the key fully backward and
hold it.
After the door is unlocked, the moon roof
begins to open. To stop in the middle,
return the key.
To close: Turn the key fully forward and
hold it.
After the door is locked, the moon roof
begins to close. To stop in the middle,
return the key.
CAUTION
To avoid death or serious personal
injury, you must do the following.
While the vehicle is moving, always
keep the heads, hands and other
parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Other-
wise, they could be killed or seri-
ously injured if the vehicle stops
suddenly or if the vehicle is in-
volved in an accident.
Before you close the moon roof,
always make sure there is nobody
around the moon roof. You must
also make sure nobody places his
or her head, hands and other parts
of the body in the roof opening. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get
caught in the closing roof, it could
result in death or serious injury.
When anyone closes the moon roof,
first make sure it is safe to do so.
Be sure to remove the key when
you leave your vehicle.
Never leave anyone (particularly a
small child) alone in your vehicle,
especially with the key still in-
serted. Otherwise, he/she could use
the moon roof switch and get
trapped in the roof opening. Unat-
tended person (particularly a small
child) can be involved in a serious
accident.
Never sit on top of the vehicle
around the roof opening.
Never try jamming any part of your
body to activate the jam protection
function intentionally, as it could re-
sult in death or serious injury.

Front passenger seats
CAUTION
The SRS front passenger airbag also
deploys with considerable force, and
can cause death or serious injury es-
pecially if the front passenger is very
close to the airbag. The front passen-
ger seat should be as far from the
airbag as possible with the seatback
adjusted, so the front passenger sits
upright.
Front seats
CAUTION
The SRS side airbags are installed in
the driver and front passenger seats.
Observe the following precautions.
Do not lean against the front door
when the vehicle is in use, since
the side airbag inflates with consid-
erable speed and force. Otherwise,
you may be killed or seriously in-
jured.
Do not use seat accessories which
cover the area where the side air-
bags inflate. Such accessories may
prevent the side airbags from acti-
vating correctly, causing death or
serious injury.
Do not modify or replace the seats
or upholstery of the seats with side
airbags. Such change may prevent
the side airbag system from activat-
ing correctly, disable the system, or
cause the side airbags to inflate ac-
cidentally, resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the seat while the
vehicle is moving as the seat may
unexpectedly move and cause the
driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Be careful that the seat does not
hit a passenger or luggage.
After adjusting the seat position, re-
lease the lever and try sliding the
seat forward and backward to make
sure it is locked in position.
After adjusting the seatback, push
your body back against the seat to
make sure the seat is locked in
position.
Do not put objects under the seats.
Otherwise, the objects may interfere
with the seatlock mechanism or
unexpectedly push up the seat posi-
tion adjusting lever and the seat
may suddenly move, causing the
driver to lose control of the vehicle.

When returning the seatback to the
upright position, observe the follow-
ing precautions in order to prevent
death or serious injury in a colli-
sion or sudden stop:
Make sure the seatback is securely
locked by pushing forward and rear-
ward on the top of the seatback.
Failure to do so will prevent the
seat belt from operating properly.
Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught in the seatback
and are arranged in their proper
position and are ready to use.
Folding down the rear seatbacks will en-
large the luggage compartment. See

Do not allow the child to lean his/
her head or any part of his/her
body against the door or the area
of the seat, front or rear pillar or
roof side rail from which the side
airbags or curtain shield airbags
deploy even if the child is seated in
the child restraint system. It is dan-
gerous if the side airbag and cur-
tain shield airbag inflate, and the
impact could cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child.
XS13065
Do not install a child restraint sys-
tem on the rear seat if it interferes
with the lock mechanism of the
front seats. Otherwise, the child or
front seat occupants may be killed
or seriously injured in case of sud-
den braking or a collision.
If the driver ’s seat position does
not allow sufficient space for safe
installation, install the child re-
straint system on the rear right
seat. Child restraint system
installed on the rear seat should
not contact the front seatbacks.
XS13194
Same angle
Same position
Crew Max models: When installing
a child restraint system in the rear
seat center position, adjust both
seat cushions to the same position
and align both seatbacks at the
same angle. Otherwise, the child re-
straint system cannot be securely
restrained and this may cause death
or serious injuries in a collision.
