the ice and release the door. Do not
pry on the door. If necessary, spray

icer fluid (do not use radiator anti-
freeze) or move the vehicle to a warm
place and allow the ice to melt.

driver's door is locked. If you lock the
driver's door while fueling, unlock it
before closing the fuel filler door.

indicator light will illuminate.
• There may be an intermittent noise near the refueling hole while the
engine is idling if the fuel cap is not

ly with the OBD system.
• When refueling on unleveled ground, the fuel gauge may not
point to the F position. It is not a
malfunction. If you move your vehi-
cle to a level ground, the fuel gauge
will move to the full position.
