Note: Dispenser nozzles for leaded gasoline (old style speakers) had an increased diameter, therefore, to prevent accidental refueling with such gasoline, the diameter of the filler pipe neck is made smaller than that of the pistol tips of these dispensers.
Warning: Do not smoke or use open flames while refueling.
Helpful tips: If at the gas station where you expected to fill up the car, you have just drained fuel from a fuel truck, it is better to look for another dispenser or return to it in a few hours, since not all dispensers are equipped with good cleaning filters and it takes time to get all the dirt in the tank settled with gasoline. Refuel your car at trusted gas stations. The power and durability of the engine directly depend on the quality of the gasoline used.
The fuel cap is located on the right rear fender under a flap.
1. Press the rear edge of the fuel tank hatch cover - the cover will open slightly under the action of the spring.
Note: The fuel door can only be opened with the doors unlocked.
2. Open the fuel filler cap.
3. Turn the fuel tank cap counterclockwise...
4....and remove it.
Warning: Because fuel vapors can build up pressure inside the tank, open the filler cap slowly. This will equalize the pressure inside the tank with atmospheric. If you see steam coming out from under the plug or hear a hissing sound, stop loosening the plug and wait until the noise stops. Otherwise, fuel may splash out of the tank.
5. Attach the stopper to the holder on the inside of the lid.
Note: To eliminate the possibility of loss, the plug is attached to the tank neck with a plastic band. The tourniquet will also prevent the manhole cover from being closed if the plug is not screwed into the tank neck.
6. Insert the fuel dispenser gun into the fuel filler neck and refuel the vehicle. If you are refueling the car from a canister, then before refueling, insert a funnel into the fuel tank neck and fill in gasoline from the canister.
Warning: It is not allowed to refuel the fuel tank of the car after the automatic shutdown of the filling valve or after the appearance of gasoline in the filler neck of the fuel tank when refueling with a valve that is not equipped with an automatic shutdown system. Failure to follow this recommendation may result in excess gasoline spilling out of the fuel tank when the vehicle is parked.
7. After filling, turn the cap clockwise until it clicks into place. The cork is equipped with a tightening torque limiter, so after a click it will scroll.
8. Close the lid and remove gasoline spills with a rag.
