{CAUTION:
Fuel vapor burns violently and a fuel re can
cause bad injuries. To help avoid injuries to you
and others, read and follow all the instructions
on the pump island. Turn off your engine when

CAUTION: (Continued)
you are refueling. Do not smoke if you are near
fuel or refueling your vehicle. Keep sparks,
ames and smoking materials away from fuel.
Do not leave the fuel pump unattended when
refueling your vehicle — this is against the law
in some places. Keep children away from the
fuel pump; never let children pump fuel.
The fuel ller cap is located behind a hinged door on
the passenger’s side of your vehicle. It is tethered to the
door to prevent loss while refueling. Make sure that
water, snow, and dirt are kept away from the ller cap
and ller pipe nozzle.
To remove the fuel cap, turn it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise). It will require about 1/2 of a turn
to remove the cap. The fuel cap has a spring in it; if you
let go of the cap too soon, it will spring back to the
right (clockwise).

The coolant level should be at the cold ll line. If it isn’t,
you may have a leak at the radiator hoses, heater
hoses, radiator, water pump or somewhere else in the
cooling system.

Heater and radiator hoses, and other engine
parts, can be very hot. Do not touch them.
If you do, you can be burned.

CAUTION: (Continued)
Do not run the engine if there is a leak. If you
run the engine, it could lose all coolant. That
could cause an engine re, and you could be
burned. Get any leak xed before you drive the
vehicle.
If there seems to be no leak, with the engine on, check
to see if the electric engine cooling fans are running.
If the engine is overheating, both fan should be running.
If it isn’t, your vehicle needs service. Turn off the
engine.

without coolant is not covered by your warranty.
