Refueling
Fuel filler door
Always switch off the engine 
before refueling, as it is not possi-
ble to add fuel with the engine running, 
and attempts may also trigger the 
SERVICE ENGINE SOON lamp.
<
Press on the rear edge of the fuel filler 
door to open and close it.
If an electrical malfunction occurs, you 
can unlock the fuel filler door manually:
1. Release the side trim on the right-
hand sidewall of the cargo area
2. Pull the knob with the fuel pump 
symbol.
Always observe all safety precau-
tions posted at the service station 
when handling fuel. Never carry spare 
fuel containers in your vehicle. Whether 
empty or full, these containers can leak, 
cause an explosion, or lead to fire in the 
event of a collision.
<
Simple and environmentally 
friendly
Open the gas cap carefully to pre-
vent fuel from spraying out. Fuel 
spray may cause injury.
<
Keep the gas cap in the bracket 
attached to the fuel filler door.
When refueling, insert the filler nozzle 
completely into the filler pipe. Lifting the 
nozzle during refueling
> results in premature pump shutoff
> and will reduce the effectiveness of 
the vapor recovery system on the 
pump.
The fuel tank is full when the filler noz-
zle shuts off the first time.
