ADDING FUEL
LOCKING FUEL FILLER

versions/markets, where
provided)
The locking fuel filler cap is located
behind the fuel filler door, on the left
side of the vehicle. If the cap is lost or
damaged, be sure the replacement cap
has been designed for use with this
vehicle.
NOTE: The driver's side sliding
door cannot be opened while the
fuel door is open. This feature op-
erates only when the sliding door
is fully closed prior to opening the
fuel door.
1. Insert the fuel cap key into the key
cylinder and turn the key to the right
to unlock.
2. Turn the gas cap knob to the left to
remove the cap.
3. When tightening the filler cap,
tighten until two or three clicks are
heard to ensure that the cap is prop-
erly seated.
CAUTION!
Damage to the fuel system oremissions control system could
result from using an improper
fuel tank filler tube cap (gas cap).
A poorly fitting cap could let im-
purities into the fuel system and
may cause the “Malfunction Indi-
cator Light (MIL)” to turn on,
due to fuel vapors escaping from
the system.
To avoid fuel spillage and over- filling, do not “top off” the fuel
tank after filling.
WARNING!
Never have any smoking materi-als lit in or near the vehicle when
the gas cap is removed or the tank
is being filled.
Never add fuel when the engine is running. It may cause the MIL to
turn on and could cause a fire.
