Before refueling the vehicle
■ Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline To help prevent incorrect fueling, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening that only accommodates the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.
WARNING
■ When refueling the vehicle Observe the following precautions while refueling the vehicle. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened. Wait until the sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap. In hot weather, pressurized fuel may spray out of the filler neck and cause injury.
Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible ignition hazard.
■ When refueling Observe the following precautions to prevent fuel overflowing from the fuel tank:

■ When refueling When refueling your vehicle, make sure that the fuel filler door lock is not pushed by the fuel nozzle boot, etc., as this may cause a valve to close, possibly resulting in a fuel spill.
If the fuel filler door lock has been pushed, operate the fuel filler door opener switch in the vehicle before continuing to refuel.
