Ethanol is more chemically active than gasoline. It corrodes some metals

and causes some plastic and rubber components to swell, break down or

become brittle and crack, especially when mixed with gasoline. Special

materials and procedures have been developed for flexible fuel vehicles

and the dispensers used by ethanol fuel providers.

Flexible fuel components and standard unleaded gasoline fuel

components are not interchangeable. If your vehicle is not

serviced in accordance with flexible fuel vehicles procedures, damage

may occur and your warranty may be invalidated.

When refueling always shut the engine off and never allow

sparks or open flames near the filler neck. Never smoke while

refueling. Fuel vapor is extremely hazardous under certain conditions.

Care should be taken to avoid inhaling excess fumes.

The flow of fuel through a fuel pump nozzle can produce static

electricity, which can cause a fire if fuel is pumped into an

ungrounded fuel container.

Use the following guidelines to avoid static build-up when filling an

ungrounded fuel container:

• Place approved fuel container on the ground.

• DO NOT fill a fuel container while it is in the vehicle.

• Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact with the fuel container while

filling.

• DO NOT use a device that would hold the fuel pump handle in the fill

position.

Fuel Filler Cap

Your fuel tank filler cap has an indexed design with a 1/8 turn on/off

feature.

When fueling your vehicle:

1. Turn the engine off.

2. Carefully turn the filler cap counterclockwise 1/8 of a turn until it

stops.
