opener)
1. To open the fuel filler door, insert
the key and turn it counterclockwise.
When refueling, turn off the engine.
CAUTION
Do not smoke, cause sparks or al-
D
low open flames when refueling.
The fumes are flammable.
When opening the cap, do not re-
D
move the cap quickly. In hot weath-
er, fuel under pressure could cause
injury by spraying out of the filler
neck if the cap is suddenly re-
moved.

the cap slowly counterclockwise,
then pause slightly before removing

It is not unusual to hear a slight swoosh
when the cap is opened. When installing,
turn the cap clockwise till you hear a
click.
