LOOSE FUEL FILLER CAP MESSAGE
If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the
fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged,
the word “gASCAP” will display in the odometer. If this
occurs, tighten the fuel filler cap until a “clicking” sound
is heard and press the TRIP ODOMETER button to
turn off the message. If the problem persists, the
message will appear the next time the vehicle is
started.
A loose, improperly installed, or damaged fuel filler cap
may also turn on the MIL.POWER STEERING
The standard power steering system will give you good
vehicle response and increased ease of maneuverability
in tight spaces. The system will provide mechanical
steering capability if power assist is lost.
If for some reason the power assist is interrupted, it
will still be possible to steer your vehicle. Under these
conditions, you will observe a substantial increase in
steering effort, especially at very low vehicle speeds
and during parking maneuvers.
NOTE:
• Increased noise levels at the end of the steering
wheel travel are considered normal and do not indicate
that there is a problem with the power steering system.
• Upon initial start-up in cold weather, the power
steering pump may make noise for a short amount of
time. This is due to the cold, thick fluid in the steering
system. This noise should be considered normal, and it
does not in any way damage the steering system.
WARNING!
Continued operation with reduced
power steering assist could pose a safety
risk to yourself and others. Service should be
obtained as soon as possible.

5. To replace the cap, insert it into the filler neck andtighten to the right until at least three clicks are
heard.
 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 gas cap could let impurities into
the fuel system.
 A poorly fitting gas cap may cause the “Mal-
function Indicator Light” to turn on.
 To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top
off ” the fuel tank after filling. When the fuel
nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full.
NOTE: When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off,
the fuel tank is full.
WARNING!
 The volatility of some gasoline may
cause a buildup of pressure in the fuel
tank that may increase while you drive. This
pressure can result in a spray of gasoline and/or
vapors when the cap is removed from a hot
vehicle. Removing the cap slowly allows the pres-
sure to vent and prevents fuel spray.
(Continued)(Continued)
 Remove the fuel cap (gas cap) slowly to prevent
fuel spray from the filler neck which may cause
injury.
 Never have any smoking materials lit in or near
the vehicle when the fuel cap is removed or the
tank is being filled.
 Never add fuel to the vehicle when the engine is
running.
 A fire may result if gasoline is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a vehicle.You
could be burned. Always place gas containers on
the ground while filling.
LOOSE FUEL FILLER CAP MESSAGE
If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the
fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged,
the word “gASCAP” will display in the odometer. If this

WARNING!
 Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating
other than that specified for your ve-
hicle. Some combinations of unapproved tires
and wheels may change suspension dimensions
and performance characteristics, resulting in
changes to steering, handling, and braking of your
vehicle. This can cause unpredictable handling
and stress to steering and suspension compo-
nents.You could lose control and have a collision
resulting in serious injury or death. Use only the
tire and wheel sizes with load ratings approved
for your vehicle.
 Never use a tire with a smaller load index or
capacity, other than what was originally
equipped on your vehicle. Using a tire with a
smaller load index could result in tire overloading
and failure. You could lose control and have a
collision.
 Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having
adequate speed capability can result in sudden
tire failure and loss of vehicle control.Replacing original tires with tires of a
different size may result in false speed-
ometer and odometer readings. FUEL REQUIREMENTS — DIESEL ENGINE
Use Premium Quality Diesel fuels with a Cetane rating
of 50 or higher, and meeting the EN590 standard are
highly recommended. See your authorized dealer for
further information regarding fuels available in your
area.
