Fuel and Refueling
-Always keep the fi ller nozzle completely
inside the portable container before and
during filling.
- If filling a portable container made of
metal, the filler nozzle must always be in
contact with the container. This will help
prevent static electricity from discharging
and cause a fire .
-Never sp ill fuel inside the vehicle or lug­
gage compartment. Fuel vapors are highly
flammab le.
-Always observe local and state/provincia l
laws regarding the use, storage and trans­
portat ion of fuel containers.
- Make certain the fuel container meets in­
dustry standards (ANSI/ ASTM F852 -86) .
(D Note
If any fuel has spilled onto the car, it should
be removed immediately to prevent damage
to the paint .
@ For the sake of the environment
As soon as the correctly operated nozzle
switches off automatically for the first time,
the tank is full. Do not try to add more fuel
because fuel may spill out . In addition, the
expansion space in the fuel tank will be filled·
causing the fuel to overflow when it becomes
warm and pollute the environment.
(j) Tips
- Running your engine while refuelling may
cause vapors to escape or even cause fuel to
sp il l out of the tank . This wo uld then shut
off the fuel nozzle before the tank is full.
- Do not refuel your veh icle with the ignition
turned on. The fuel gauge may otherwise
not indicate the correct fuel level after refu­
elling.
- The fuel filler flap of your vehicle is not
l ocked when you lock the vehicle from the
inside .

its many systems.
Improper ma intenance, adjustments and repairs
can impair the operation and reliability of your
vehicle and even void your vehicle warranty .
Therefore, proof of se rv icing in accordance with
the m aintenance schedule may be a condi tion for
upho ld ing a possib le warranty cla im made w ith in
