FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seriously
injured if it is misused or mishandled. Al-
ways stop the engine and do not smoke
or allow open flames or sparks near the
vehicle when refueling.
• Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off au-
tomatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
• Use only an original equipment type fuel-
filler cap as a replacement. It has a
built-in safety valve needed for proper
operation of the fuel system and emis-
sion control system. An incorrect cap can
result in a serious malfunction and pos-
sible injury. It could also cause the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to
come on. •
Never pour fuel into the throttle body to
attempt to start your vehicle.
• Do not fill a portable fuel container in the
vehicle or trailer. Static electricity can
cause an explosion of flammable liquid,
vapor or gas in any vehicle or trailer. To
reduce the risk of serious injury or death
when filling portable fuel containers:
– Always place the container on the
ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices when
filling.
– Keep the pump nozzle in contact with
the container while you are filling it.
– Use only approved portable fuel con-
tainers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
• Do not use a fuel containing more than
15% ethanol in your vehicle. For addi-
tional information, see “Fuel recommen-
dation” (P. 10-4). •
The Loose Fuel Cap warning message
will be displayed if the fuel-filler cap is
not properly tightened. It may take a few
driving trips for the message to be dis-
played. Failure to tighten the fuel-filler
cap properly after the Loose Fuel Cap
warning is displayed may cause the Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL) to
illuminate.
• Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap
properly may cause the
Malfunc-
tion Indicator Light (MIL) to illuminate.
If the
light illuminates because the
fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, tighten
or install the cap and continue to drive
the vehicle. The
light should turn off
after a few driving trips. If thelight
does not turn off after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
• For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)”
(P. 2-15).
• If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush
it away with water to avoid paint
damage.
