3. Turn the power system off.
4. Press the fuel fill door release button.
u Please Wait appears for a few seconds
on the driver information interface.
5. When the message changes to Ready, the

u You can now unscrew the fuel cap and

6. Remove the fuel fill cap slowly. If you hear a
release of air, wait until this stops, then turn
the knob slowly to open the fuel fill cap.
1 How to Refuel
This vehicle has a pressurized fuel system.
When the fuel vapor pressure inside the fuel tank is
high, it takes about 10 seconds for the vehicle to vent
the fuel tank. Once the pressure is vented, the driver
information interface changes from Please Wait to
Ready.
If the filler nozzle keeps tu rning off when the tank is
not full, there may be a problem with the pump’s fuel
vapor recovery system. Try fi lling at another pump. If
this does not fix the problem, consult a dealer.
Do not continue to add fuel after the filler nozzle has
automatically stopped. Addi tional fuel can exceed
the full tank capacity.
The filler nozzle automatically stops to leave space in
the fuel tank so that fuel does not overflow as a result
of changes in air temperature.
3WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.
You can be burned or seriously injured
when handling fuel.
• Turn the power sy stem off, and keep
heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.

minutes from the moment y ou press the fuel fill door
release button. When it does, do not continue to
refuel as fuel may spill out.
When the fuel fill door auto matically opens, a vent
valve in the fuel system also opens to allow the air
and the vapors being displace d by the fuel to escape.
This valve automatically closes, however, if the
refueling is not completed within 30 minutes. If this
happens, reinstall the fuel cap, close the fuel fill door,
and then follow these steps again to restart the
system.
