Refueling
Always observe all safety notices
posted at the service station when
refueling. 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 filler cap carefully to
prevent fuel from spraying out. Fuel
spray may cause injury. Do not attempt
to continue adding fuel to the last drop,
as this practice can cause fuel to spill.<
Keep the filler cap in the bracket
attached to the fuel filler door.
When refueling, insert the filler nozzle
completely into the filler pipe. Pulling the
nozzle out of the pipe during refueling
> results in premature pump shutoff
> and will reduce the effect of the vapor
recovery system on the pump.
As long as the filler nozzle is used prop-
erly, the fuel tank is full whenever the
nozzle shuts off the first time.

Refill early to avoid damaging the
catalytic converter; never attempt
to drive to the last drop of fuel in the
tank.<
Tank capacity: approximately 18.5 gal.
(70 liters), with reserve of approximately
2.5 gal. (10 liters).
Close the filler cap carefully after
refueling, continuing until you hear
the detent engage. While closing, be
sure not to squeeze the strap which is
fastened to the cap. A loose or missing
cap will activate the message "CHECK
FILLER CAP" in the Check Control or
the Service Engine Soon lamp.<
