5. Remove funnel from filler pipe, clean off prior  to putting back in the spare tire storage area.
IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS 
If the vehicle is overheating, it will need to be 
serviced by an authorized dealer.
In any of the following situations, you can reduce 
the potential for overheating your engine by taking 
the appropriate action.
On highways — slow down.
In city traffic — while stopped, place the trans -
mission in NEUTRAL, but do not increase engine 
idle speed.
NOTE:There are steps that you can take to slow down an 
impending overheat condition: 
If your Air Conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The 
A/C system adds heat to the engine cooling 
system and turning the A/C off can help remove 
this heat.
You can also turn the temperature control to 
maximum heat, the mode control to floor and 
the blower control to high. This allows the heater 
core to act as a supplement to the radiator and 
aids in removing heat from the engine cooling 
system.
WARNING!
Never have any smoking materials lit in or 
near the vehicle when the fuel door is open 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 Malfunc -
tion Indicator Light 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.CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage 
your vehicle. If the temperature gauge reads
“H,” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the 
vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until 
the pointer drops back into the normal range. 
If the pointer remains on the “H” and you hear 
continuous chimes, turn the engine off 
immediately and call for service.WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine 
coolant (antifreeze) or steam from your radiator. 
If you see or hear steam coming from under the 
hood, do not open the hood until the radiator 
has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling 
system pressure cap when the radiator or 
coolant bottle is hot.
