Filling the Tank (Petrol)

An arrow on the fuel gauge indicates which
side of the vehicle the fuel door is on. See
Fuel Gauge 0 94.
Warning
Fuel vapours and fuel fires burn violently
and can cause injury or death.
Follow these guidelines to help avoid
injuries to you and others:
Read and follow all the instructions on
the fuel pump island.
Turn off the engine when refuelling.
Keep sparks, flames, and smoking
materials away from fuel.
Do not leave the fuel pump
unattended.
Avoid using electronic devices while
refuelling.
Do not re-enter the vehicle while
pumping fuel.
Keep children away from the fuel
pump and never let children
pump fuel.
Warning (Continued)
Before touching the fill nozzle, touch a
metallic object to discharge static
electricity from your body.
Fuel may spray out if the filler nozzle
is inserted too quickly. This spray can
happen if the tank is nearly full, and is
more likely in hot weather. Insert the
filler nozzle slowly and wait for any
hissing noise to stop before starting to
fill fuel.
To open the fuel filler flap, push and release
the rearward centre edge of the flap.
(Continued)
The capless refuelling system does not have
a fuel cap. Fully insert and latch the fill
nozzle, begin refuelling.
Warning
Overfilling the fuel tank by more than
three clicks of a standard fill nozzle may
cause:
Vehicle performance issues, including
engine stalling and damage to the fuel
system.
Fuel spills.
Under certain conditions, fuel ignites.
Be careful not to spill fuel. Wait five seconds
after you have finished refuelling before
removing the filler nozzle. Clean fuel from
painted surfaces as soon as possible. See
Exterior Care 0 315. Push the fuel door
closed until it latches.
Warning
If a fire starts while you are refuelling, do
not remove the fill nozzle. Shut off the
flow of fuel by shutting off the pump or
by notifying the station attendant. Leave
the area immediately.
