The rear vision camera system display in the rearview
mirror may turn off or not appear as expected due to one
of the following conditions. If this occurs the left indicator
light on the mirror will ash.
A slow ash may indicate a loss of video signal, or no
video signal present during the reverse cycle.
A fast ash may indicate that the display has been on
for the maximum allowable time during a reverse
cycle, or the display has reached an Over
Temperature limit.
The fast ash conditions are used to protect the video
device from high temperature conditions. Once
conditions return to normal the device will reset and
the green indicator will stop ashing.

blank and the indicator will continue to ash as long
as the vehicle is in R (Reverse) or until the conditions
return to normal.

The tethered fuel cap is located behind a hinged
fuel door on the passenger side of the vehicle. If the
vehicle has E85 fuel capability, the fuel cap will be
yellow and state that E85 or gasoline can be used.
SeeFuel E85 (85% Ethanol) on page 5-7.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 the 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. SeeWashing
