REFUELING THE VEHICLE
Push the fuel filler door release switch (located under the headlamp switch).
Open the fuel filler door.
NOTE:
In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent the fuel door from opening. If this occurs, lightly push on the fuel door to break the ice buildup and re-release the fuel door using the inside release button. Do not pry on the door.
There is no fuel filler cap. Two flapper doors inside the pipe seal the system.
Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe, the nozzle opens and holds the flapper doors while refueling.
Fill the vehicle with fuel, when the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full.
Wait five seconds before removing the fuel nozzle to allow fuel to drain from nozzle.
Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel door.
