fuel tank is full.

the fuel door.NOTE: A funnel is provided (lo-
cated in the trunk in the spare tire
area) to open the flapper door to
allow for emergency refueling with
a gas can.CAUTION!

ing, do not “top off” the fuel tank
after filling.
WARNING!

als lit in or near the vehicle when
the fuel door is open or the tank is
being filled.
