General Information
Fuel Tank Cap
1. F u e l t a n k c a p
To open the fuel tank cap, rotate the cap
anti-clockwise and lift clear of the tank filler
neck.
To close the cap, align the cap to the tank
filler neck and rotate the cap clockwise until
the cap seals against the filler neck. In the
fully closed position, a ratchet mechanism
prevents over-tightening of the cap by
allowing the outer part of the cap to turn
independently of the internal part.
Caution
The use of leaded fuel is illegal in some
countries, states or territories. Use of
leaded fuel will damage the catalytic
converter.
Warning
To help reduce hazards associated with
refuelling, always observe the following
fuel safety instructions:
Petrol (fuel) is highly flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions. When
refuelling, turn the ignition switch to the
OFF position.
Do not smoke.
Do not use a mobile telephone.
Make sure the refuelling area is well
ventilated and free from any source of
flame or sparks. This includes any
appliance with a pilot light.
Never fill the tank until the fuel level rises
into the filler neck. Heat from sunlight or
other sources may cause the fuel to
expand and overflow creating a fire
hazard.
After refuelling always check that the fuel
filler cap is correctly closed.
Because petrol (fuel) is highly flammable,
any fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to
observe the safety advice given above will
lead to a fire hazard, which could cause
damage to property, injury to persons or
death.
