NOTICE!
To prevent damage to the filler caps:
• Make sure the filler cap is fully seated before
turning the key to lock the cap. The key slot
shield covers the key slot after the key is
removed to prevent dirt, debris, and moisture
from entering the lock.
• Make sure the O-ring in the filler cap is clean. If
the O-ring is contaminated by dirt or debris the
O-ring will be damaged, causing the filler cap to
seal improperly.
