the driver’s side sliding door
automatically locks so it cannot open
and interfere with the fuel door. If a
passenger attempts to unlock the
door by cycling the lock knob several

If a passenger needs to get out while
you are ref ueling, instruct that
person to exit on the passenger’s
side.
When you close the f uel f ill door, the
driver’s side sliding door unlocks if it
was unlocked when you opened the
fuel fill door.
If you open the f uel f ill door while
