Opening/closing the fuel filler door
The vehicle must be unlocked before the fuel filler door can be opened.
An arrow next to the fuel pump symbol in the instrument panel indicates the side of the vehicle where the fuel filler door is located.
Open the fuel filler door by pressing lightly on its rear edge.
After refueling, close the fuel filler door by pressing lightly.
Refueling from a service station pump
To refuel:
Open the fuel filler door. Do not refuel with the engine running1
Insert the pump's nozzle into the fuel filler pipe's opening as far as possible (see the illustration).
Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Do not press the handle on the filler nozzle after it has stopped pumping. Too much fuel in the tank in hot weather conditions can cause the fuel to overflow. Overfilling could also cause damage to the emission control systems.
Important
Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In addition to causing damage to the environment, gasolines containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
