Carbon Monoxide
Warnings
Warning!Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is
deadly. Follow the precautions below to
prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:
Do not inhale exhaust gases. They
contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and
odorless gas, which can kill. Never run the
engine in a closed area, such as a garage,
and never sit in a parked vehicle with the
engine running for an extended period. If
the vehicle is stopped in an open area with
the engine running for more than a short
period, adjust the ventilation system to
force fresh, outside air into the vehicle.
Guard against carbon monoxide with
proper maintenance. Have the exhaust
system inspected every time the vehicle is
raised. Have any abnormal conditions
repaired promptly. Until repaired, drive with
all side windows fully open.
Refueling Procedure
Fuel Filler Door
Note: Always use only a designated
FCA fuel filler cap or an approved
equivalent, available at your authorized
dealer. The wrong cap can result in a
serious malfunction of the fuel and
emission control systems. When the fuel filler door end is pressed
with the doors unlocked, the fuel filler
door rises.
The fuel filler door operates in
conjunction with the door
locking/unlocking mechanism.
To close, press the fuel filler door until a
click sound is heard.
Note:
Make sure to lock both the doors
when leaving the vehicle.
Lock the doors after closing the fuel
filler door. If the fuel filler door is closed
after locking the doors, the fuel filler
door cannot be locked.
Fuel Filler Cap
To remove the fuel filler cap, turn it
counterclockwise. Attach the removed
cap to the inner side of the fuel filler
door. To close the fuel filler cap, turn it
clockwise until a click is heard.
Warning! Never have any smoking materials 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. This is in violation of most state
and federal fire regulations and may cause
the MIL to turn on.
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. 04040201-12A-002AB
