• If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid
paint damage.
HOW TO REFUEL
The fuel tank is not equipped with a fuel
filler cap. Af ter opening the fuel-filler door,
insert the fuel pump nozzle directly into the
fuel-filler opening. When the fuel pump
nozzle is pulled out, the fuel filler opening
will be sealed.
To refuel:
Be sure to insert the fuel pump nozzle
slowly in to the fuel-filler opening as far as it
will go before fueling.
Never move the nozzle during the
refueling. Pull out the nozzle approximately 5 sec-
onds af ter the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically (initial shut-off ).
Close the fuel-filler door af ter refueling.
If you need to refuel from a portable fuel
container, use the funnel supplied with your
vehicle. (see “When refueling from a por-
table fuel container” (P. 3-33).
CAUTION
• Do not attempt to open the flaps on
the fuel-filler opening using any tool
other than the fuel pump nozzle.

formable to normal fuel pump
nozzles at gas stations. Using a
nozzle with a small diameter may
damage the opening and the fuel
system.
• If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid
paint damage.

can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable
fuel containers:
– Always place the container on the
ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices
when filling.

WHEN REFUELING FROM A
PORTABLE FUEL CONTAINER
If you need to refuel from a portable fuel
container, use the funnel
OAstored in the
tool bag (located under the luggage
board).
LPD3275
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-33

Be sure to insert the funnel into the fuel-
filler opening slowly and fully. Insert the
nozzle of the portable fuel container into
the opening along the funnel and fill the
fuel tank.
Af ter refueling, remove the funnel from the
fuel-filler opening. Wipe the funnel clean
and return it to the tool bag.
CAUTION
• Do not insert the nozzle of the por-
table fuel container directly into the
fuel-filler opening. Doing so may
damage the opening and the fuel
system.
• Use only the funnel provided with
your vehicle. Otherwise the fuel-filler
opening and the fuel system may be
damaged.
WARNING
• Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose control
of your vehicle and cause an
accident.
• Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and com-
fort. The driver's air bag inflates with
great force. If you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways or
out of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive serious
or fatal injuries from the air bag if you
are up against it when it inflates. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback
and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat
belts.

3-34Pre-driving checks and adjustments

•Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
• Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite compared
to when viewed in the rearview and
outside mirrors.
• Use the displayed lines as a refer-
ence. The lines are highly affected by
the number of occupants, fuel level,
vehicle position, road conditions and
road grade.
• Make sure that the lif tgate is securely
closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled in the rear bumper.
• When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing
water condensation on the lens, a
malfunction, fire or an electric shock.
• Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage result-
ing in a fire or an electric shock. The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
• When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not clearly display
objects.
• When strong light directly shines on the camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
• Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the screen. This is due to strong reflected
light from the bumper.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light.
• The colors of objects on the RearView Monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects.
• Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark environment.
• There may be a delay when switching between views.
• If dirt, rain or snow accumulate on the camera, the RearView Monitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the camera.
• Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thin-
ner to clean the camera. This will
cause discoloration.
• Do not damage the camera as the
monitor screen may be adversely
affected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera
O1, the RearView Monitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the camera
by wiping it with a cloth dampened with a
diluted mild cleaning agent and then wip-
ing it with a dry cloth.

WARNING
• The distance guide lines and the ve-
hicle width lines should be used as a
reference only when the vehicle is on
a paved, level surface. The apparent
distance viewed on the monitor may
be different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects.
• Use the displayed lines and the
bird’s-eye view as a reference. The
lines and the bird’s-eye view are
greatly affected by the number of oc-
cupants, cargo, fuel level, vehicle po-
sition, road condition and road
grade.
• If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines
and the bird's-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly. •
When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are fur-
ther than they appear. When driving
the vehicle down a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are closer than
they appear.
• Objects in the rear view will appear
visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the monitor and outside
mirrors.
• Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other
objects.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predicted course lines and the
actual course line.
• The vehicle width and predicted
course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
