Remove the cover inside the
luggage compartment by
inserting a screwdriver.
When removing the cover, to pre-
vent damage, cover the tip of the
screwdriver with a rag.

filler door may not allow for an ade-
quate reduction in fuel tank pres-
sure before refueling. To prevent
fuel from spilling out, turn the cap

During refueling, fuel may spill out
from the filler opening due to air
being discharged from inside the
fuel tank. Therefore, fill the fuel tank
