Be sure to insert the funnel into the fuel-
filler opening slowly and fully. Insert the
nozzle of the portable fuel container into
the opening along the funnel and fill the
fuel tank.
Af ter refueling, remove the funnel from the
fuel-filler opening. Wipe the funnel clean
and return it to the tool bag.
CAUTION
• Do not insert the nozzle of the por-
table fuel container directly into the
fuel-filler opening. Doing so may
damage the opening and the fuel
system.
• Use only the funnel provided with
your vehicle. Otherwise the fuel-filler
opening and the fuel system may be
damaged.
WARNING
• Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose control
of your vehicle and cause an
accident.
• Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and com-
fort. The driver's air bag inflates with
great force. If you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways or
out of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive serious
or fatal injuries from the air bag if you
are up against it when it inflates. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback
and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat
belts.
MANUAL OPERATION (if so
equipped)
