Filling Your Tank The cap is behind a hinged door on the left side of
your vehicle.
Gasoline vapor is highly flammable. It burns
violently, and that can cause very bad injuries.
Don’t smoke if you’re near gasoline or refueling
your vehicle. Keep sparks, flames and smoking
materials away from gasoline.
The remote fuel door release can help keep your fuel
tank from being siphoned. Always be sure the fuel door
is closed and latched after refueling.
To open the fuel door
(on
the left of the vehicle), press
the button next to the
trunk
release button, to the right
of the steering column. The
ignition does not need to be
on. The remote fuel door
release will work
in all
transaxle positions.

The fuel door can be opened
manually in case
of an
electrical power failure. To
do
so, first open the trunk.
The release mechanism
is
on the driver’s side of the
vehicle, at the top of
the
trunk compartment. Pull the
tab toward you to release
the fuel door.
I NOTICE:
Prying on a locked fuel filler door could damage
it. Use the remote fuel
door manual release
located in the trunk.
While refueling, hang the cap inside the fuel door. Twist
it clockwise to secure
it, if necessary.
To take
off the cap, turn it slowly to the left
(counterclockwise).
