568 STARTING AND OPERATING
Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap)
NOTE:
• In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent the fuel
door from opening. If this occurs, lightly push on the
fuel door to break the ice buildup and re-release the
fuel door using the inside release button. Do not pry
on the door.
• When the fuel nozzle "clicks" or shuts off, the fuel tank
is full.
• Tighten the gas cap about one quarter turn until you
hear one click. This is an indication that the cap is
properly tightened.
• If the gas cap is not tightened properly, the MIL will
come on. Be sure the gas cap is tightened every time
the vehicle is refueled.
CAUTION!
• Damage to the fuel system or emission control
system could result from using an improper fuel
filler cap. A poorly fitting cap could let impurities
into the fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting aftermar-
ket cap can cause the "Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)" to illuminate, due to fuel vapors escaping
from the system.
