Filling Your Tank
The fuel cap is behind
a hinged door
on
the
driver's side o f
your vehicle.
Gasoline vapor is highly flammable. It burns
violently, and that can cause very bad injuries.
Don't smoke if you're near gasoline or refueling
your vehicle. Keep sparks, flames and smoking
materials away from gasoline.
To take
off the cap, turn
it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise).
The
cap has
a
spring in it: if
you let go of the cap
too soon,
it
will spring
back to the right.
A
CAUTION:
I
If you get gasoline on yourself and then
something ignites it, you could be badly burned.
Gasoline can spray out on you if you open the
fuel filler cap too quickly. This spray can happen
if your tank is nearly full, and is more likely in
hot weather. Open the fuel filler cap
slowly and
wait for any "hiss" noise to stop. Then unscrew
the cap all the way.
