CAUTION
(Continued)
Things you put inside your vehi-
cle can strike and injure people
in a sudden stop or turn, or in a
crash. Put things in the cargo
area of your vehicle and try to
spread the weight evenly.
Never stack things inside the
vehicle any higher than the
seatbacks. Do not leave unse-
cured child restraints inside the
vehicle. Try to secure anything
that is carried inside the vehicle.
Important Safety Precautions
Fuel and Other Flammable
Materials
CAUTION
Turn off the engine before
refueling.
When you open the fuel filler
cap, open it slightly at first to
release the pressure inside the
tank, then turn it all the way.
Never fill a portable fuel
container while it is in your
vehicle.
Dispense gasoline only into
approved containers.
Do not smoke while pumping
gasoline.
Do not carry combustible mate-
rials, such as gasoline, in the
vehicle.
CAUTION
(Continued)
Do not put paper or flammable
items in an ashtray. They may
catch fire from a cigarette.
To allow room for fuel expan-
sion in the fuel tank (caused by
heat from the engine), fill the
tank only until the pump's
automatic nozzle shuts off.
