Convenient features of your vehicle
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refuel-
ing. You can generate a build-
up of static electricity by
touching, rubbing or sliding
against any item or fabric
capable of producing static
electricity. Static electricity
discharge can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire. If you
must re-enter the vehicle, you
should once again eliminate
potentially dangerous static
electricity discharge by touch-
ing a metal part of the vehicle,
away from the fuel filler neck,
nozzle or other gasoline
source, with your bare hand.
When using an approved
portable fuel container, be
sure to place the container on
the ground prior to refueling.
Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire.
Do not over-fill or top-off your
vehicle tank, which can cause
gasoline spillage.
If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station and then contact the
local fire department. Follow
any safety instructions they
provide.
If pressurized fuel sprays out,
it can cover your clothes or
skin and thus subject you to
the risk of fire and burns.
Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap
is venting fuel or if you hear a
hissing sound, wait until the
condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.
Once refueling has begun,
contact between your bare
hand and the vehicle should
be maintained until the filling
is complete.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers designed
to carry and store gasoline.
When refueling, always move
the shift lever to the P (Park)
position (for automatic trans-
mission/dual clutch transmis-
sion), set the parking brake,
and place the ignition switch
to the LOCK/OFF position.
Sparks produced by electrical
components related to the
engine can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
Do not use matches or a
lighter and do not smoke or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle while at a gas station,
especially during refueling.

mination setting on your audio dis-
play, refer to the "Setup" section of
your Audio or Navigation manual.
Never adjust the instrument
cluster while driving. Doing so
could lead to driver distraction
which may cause an accident
and lead to vehicle damage,
serious injury, or death.
