REFUELING THE VEHICLE
1. Push the fuel filler door release switch(located under the headlamp switch).
2. Open the fuel filler door. NOTE:
In certain cold conditions, ice may pre-
vent the fuel door from opening. If this
occurs, lightly push on the fuel door to
break the ice buildup and re-release the
fuel door using the inside release button.
Do not pry on the door.
3. There is no fuel filler cap. A flapper door inside the pipe seals the system. 4. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler
pipe, the nozzle opens and holds the flap-
per door while refueling.
5. Fill the vehicle with fuel, when the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off the fuel tank is
full.
6. Wait 5 seconds before removing the fuel nozzle to allow fuel to drain from nozzle.
7. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel door.
Emergency Gas Can Refueling
• Most gas cans will not open the flapper door.
• A funnel is provided to open the flapper door to allow emergency refueling with a
gas can.
• Retrieve funnel from the spare tire storage area.
• Insert funnel into same filler pipe opening as the fuel nozzle.

ning. This is in violation of most state

to turn on.
• A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always
place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.

To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do
not “top off” the fuel tank after filling.
