EASY FUEL® SYSTEM
To Use
» Put your vehicle into park (P) and
switch off the ignition.
» Open the fuel-filler door.
» Insert the nozzle.
» Begin fueling.
» Wait 5–10 seconds between the
time the refueling nozzle shuts off
and you remove the nozzle from the
vehicle. This allows residual fuel in
the nozzle to drain into the tank.
» When using a portable fuel
container, slowly insert the fuel
funnel (located in the glove box)
and pour the fuel into the funnel.
NOTE Do not use aftermarket
funnels as they will not work with
the Easy Fuel system and may cause
damage. Properly clean the funnel after
each use.
FUEL TANK CAPACITY AND
FUEL INFO

tank capacity. Use only UNLEADED fuel
with an octane rating of 87 or higher.
Do not use fuel
E20 - E85 ethanol (E85),
diesel fuel, fuel-methanol, leaded fuel or
any other fuel because it could damage
or impair the emission control system.
TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM
Your vehicle displays a low tire pressure
warning light
in your instrument

are significantly under-inflated. If this
happens, stop and check your tires as
soon as possible, then inflate them
