FUEL FILLER CAP
The fuel filler cap is a ratcheting type. Tighten the
cap clockwise until ratcheting clicks are heard.Put the fuel filler cap on the cap holder
j1 while
refuelling.
WARNING
•Fuel is extremely flammable and highly explo-
sive under certain conditions. Always stop the
engine and do not smoke or allow open flames
or sparks near the vehicle when refuelling.
•Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the cap half
a turn and wait for any hissing sound to stop,
in order to prevent fuel from spraying out and
causing possible personal injury.
•Use only a NISSAN fuel filler cap or exact
equivalent as a replacement. It has a built-in
safety valve needed for proper operation of
the fuel system and emission control system.
An incorrect cap can result in a serious mal-
function and possible injury.
CAUTION
If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it away
with water to avoid paint damage.To apply:Pull the lever up
j1.
To release:Pull the lever up slightly, push the but-
ton
j2 and lower completely.
Before driving, check that the brake warning light
goes out. For additional information, see “Warn-
ing/indicator lights and audible reminders” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section.
NOTE
A buzzer will sound if the vehicle is driven with-
out releasing the handbrake.
