Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline
To help prevent incorrect fueling, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening that
only accommodates the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.
■ If the fuel level gauge is malfunctioning
The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate if the fuel level gauge is mal-
functioning. (A malfunction may be detected and the malfunction indicator
lamp may illuminate erroneously in some situations, such as when the vehicle
is refueled repeatedly when the fuel tank is nearly full.)
