Driving
How to RefuelUse the master door lock switch to unlock the fuel
fill door.
The vehicle doors and fuel fill door automatically
relock if the remote unlock function is used. This
can be deactivated by briefly opening then closing
the driver's door. NOTICE The fuel fill door and its latching mechanism can be
permanently damaged if the fuel fill door is forced
closed when the driver's door is locked.
The filler nozzle automatically stops to leave space
in the fuel tank so that fuel does not overflow as a
result of changes in air temperature.
If the fuel nozzle keeps turning off when the tank
is not full, there may be a problem with the pump's
fuel vapor recovery system. Try filling at another
pump. If this does not fix the problem, consult a
dealer.
Do not continue to add fuel after the nozzle has
automatically stopped. Additional fuel can exceed
the full tank capacity.
6. Place the fuel fill cap in the holder.
7. Insert the filler nozzle fully.
When the tank is full, the fuel nozzle will
click off automatically. This leaves space
in the fuel tank in case the fuel expands
with a change in the temperature.
8. After filling, replace the fuel fill cap,
tightening it until you hear it click at least
once. Shut the fuel fill door by hand.
4. Press the area indicated by the arrow to
release the fuel fill door. You will hear a
click
5. Remove the fuel fill cap slowly. If you hear
a release of air, wait until this stops, then
turn the knob slowly to open the fuel fill
cap.
