All-wheel drive vehicles: 15.8 gal (60 L) Front-wheel drive vehicles: 16.6 gal (63 L) 1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine. 2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear driver side of your vehicle. The fuel tank filler door can be openedfrom inside the vehicle with the fuel tank filler door release le
ver located at the left
side of the driver’s seat.
3. Open the fuel tank filler pipe by slowly turning the fuel tank filler cap counter- clockwise.
4. Fueling correctly depends mainly on cor- rect handling of the fuel filler nozzle. Do not tilt the nozzle. Insert the nozzle in thefuel tank filler port as far as it goes. 5. When the nozzle stops automatically, do not add more fuel.
 Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel contains toxic substances. Keep the doors and windows closed while refueling the vehicle. If they were open,fuel vapor could get into the cabin.

WA R N I N G
1- Remove 2- CloseWA R N I N G Since the fuel system may be under pres- sure, remove the fuel tank filler cap slowly. This relieves any pressure or vac- uum that might have built up in the fueltank. If the cap is venting vapor or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until the sound stops before removing the cap. Otherwise,fuel may spray out, injuring you or others.
NOTE
 While filling with fuel, store the fuel cap in the cap holder (A) or hang it on the hook (B) located on the inside of the fuel tank filler door.CAUTION Your vehicle can only be operated using unleaded gasoline. Serious engine and cata- lytic converter damage will result if leadedgasoline is filled into these vehicles, and consequently, this must never be attempted.

ing precautions during
the first 300 miles (500 km).Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during the break-in period.  Avoid revving the engine.  Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden acceleration, prolonged high- speed driving and sudden braking. These actions would have a detrimental effect onthe engine and lead to increased fuel andoil consumption; this could ultimately result in the malfunction of engine com- ponents. Be particularly careful to avoidfull acceleration while in low shift posi- tion (low gears).  Do not overload the vehicle. Stay within the seating capacity. Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-10. Refrain from towing a trailer or other vehicle. Refer to “Trailer towing” on page 6-11.

N00401601277
Your vehicle has seat belts and other safety
features that help protect you and your pas-
sengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety
device. When worn properly, seat belts can
reduce the chance of serious injury or death
in various types of crashes. For added protec-
tion during a severe frontal collision, your
vehicle has a Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen-
gers. The seats, head restraints, and door
locks also are safety equipment, which must
be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:  That everyone in your vehicle is properly
wearing their seat belt.
 That infants and small children are prop-
erly secured in an appropriate child
restraint system in the rear seat.
 That all doors are fully closed and locked.
 That seatbacks are upright, with head
restraints properly adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or
death in all motor vehicle accidents. How-
ever, you can help reduce the risk of injury or
death, by following the instructions in this
manual.
