Refueling – opening/closing fuel
filler door
The fuel filler door is located on the right rear
fender (indicated by an arrow beside the fuel
tank symbol on the information display
)
With the ignition switched off, press and release
the button on the lighting panel to unlock the fuel
filler door. Please note that the fuel filler door will
remain unlocked until the vehicle begins to move
forward. An audible click will be heard when the
fuel filler door relocks.
•
If you intend to leave your vehicle while it is
being refueled, this feature enables you to
lock the doors/trunk while leaving the fuel
filler door unlocked.
•
You can also keep the vehicle locked if you
remain inside it during refueling. The central
locking button does not lock the fuel filler
door.
•
Be sure the fuel filler door is not obstructed
and is completely closed after refueling.
•
Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot
weather.
Close the fuel filler door by pressing it; a click
indicates that it is closed.
CAUTION
Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In
addition to causing damage to the environ-
ment, gasolines containing alcohol can cause
damage to painted surfaces, which may not
be covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Manually opening the fuel filler door
1. Open the side hatch in the trunk (on the
same side as the fuel filler door).
2. Grasp the handle on the green cord.
3. Gently pull the cord straight rearward until
the fuel filler door clicks open.
