Fuel filler door
The fuel filler cap can be placed on the hook on the fuel filler door while refueling
Press the button on the light switch panel (see the illustration on page 67) when the vehicle is at a standstill to unlock the fuel filler door.
Please note that the fuel filler door will remain unlocked until the vehicle begins to move forward.
An audible click will be heard when the fuel filler door relocks.
If you intend to leave your vehicle while it is being refueled, this feature enables you to lock the doors/tailgate while leaving the fuel filler door unlocked.
You can also keep the vehicle locked if you remain inside it during refueling. The central locking button does not lock the fuel filler door.
Be sure the fuel filler door is not obstructed and is completely closed after refueling.
Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot weather.
NOTE
During a transitional period, a small number
of service stations may still have fuel nozzles
that are not compatible with the fuel
filler neck on vehicles equipped with the
evaporative control system.
