easy Fuel® systeM
With this system, you simply open the fuel
door, insert the nozzle and begin fueling.
It is self-sealing and therefore protected
against dust, dirt, water, snow and ice. Wait
10 seconds from the time the refueling
nozzle is shut-off until you remove the
nozzle from the vehicle to allow residual
fuel in the nozzle to drain into the tank.
Note When refilling with a portable
container, only use the funnel that comes
with your vehicle. Do not use aftermarket
funnels as they will not work with the
Easy Fuel
system and may cause damage.
Extra funnels can be purchased from your
authorized dealer.
