lightly or push on the door to break the
ice and release the door. Do not pry on the
door. If necessary, spray around the door
with an approved de-icer fluid (do not use
radiator anti-freeze) or move the vehicle to
a warm place and allow the ice to melt.

Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive. Failure to follow these
guidelines may result in SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH:
Read and follow all warnings posted
at the gas station.
Before refueling, note the location of
the Emergency Gasoline Shut-Off, if
available, at the gas station.
Before touching the fuel nozzle, you
should eliminate the potential build-
