lightly or push on the lid to break the
ice and release the lid. Do not pry on
the lid. If necessary, spray around the
lid with an approved de-icer fluid (do
not use radiator anti-freeze) or move
the vehicle to a warm place and allow
the ice to melt.

Refueling
•
If pressurized fuel sprays out,
it can cover your clothes or
skin and thus subject you to
the risk of fire and burns.
Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap
is venting fuel or if you hear a
hissing sound, wait until the
condition stops before com-
pletely removing the cap.
•
Do not "top off" after the noz-
zle automatically shuts off
when refueling.
•
Always check that the fuel cap
is installed securely to pre-
vent fuel spillage in the event
of an accident.
