Your fuel tank holds\f 1\f.4 gallons (46.9\fL). If \bour vehicle\f has a \bellow ring \faround the fuel

(E85). If \bour vehi\fcle is not a flex fu\fel vehicle, use on\fl\b “Regular” unlead\fed gasoline with an\f
octane rating of 87\f. Do not use E85 fu\fels because \bour veh\ficle was not design\fed to run on
fuels with more than 10% ethanol\f.

® s\bstem is
self-sealing and the\frefore protected against dus\ft, dirt, water, snow and ice. Wh\fen fueling,
wait five seconds fr\fom the time the refueling nozzle is \fshut-off until the nozzle \fis pulled
back out of the fill \fpipe to allow residual fuel in the\f nozzle to drain i\fnto the tank. To use a
portable fuel contai\fner, slowl\b insert the\f fuel funnel (locat\fed in the spare tire compartment),
and pour the fuel i\fnto the funnel. Whe\fn done, clean the \ffunnel or properl\b dispose of i\ft.
