REFUELING IN EMERGENCY

Refueling Funnel
Emergency Gas Can Refueling:
Most gas cans will not open the flapper doors. A funnel is
provided to allow emergency refueling with a gas can.
See the following steps for refueling:
1. Retrieve funnel from under the rear cargo load floor.
2. Insert funnel into same filler pipe opening as the fuel
nozzle.
Inserting Funnel
3. Ensure funnel is inserted fully to hold flapper doors
open.
4. Pour fuel into funnel opening.
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not "top off" the
fuel tank after filling.
5. Remove funnel from filler pipe, clean off prior to
putting back in the spare tire storage area.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
6. Close the fuel door making sure the latch is engaged
by pushing on the rear outer edge near the center.
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 countries regulations and may
cause the Malfunction Indicator Light to turn on.
 Do not apply any object/cap to the end of the filler which
is not provided for the car. The use of non-compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure increase inside the
tank, resulting in dangerous situations.
 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.
