25n
When handling fuels always
To close the fuel filler cap:
observe any safety guidelines
posted at the service station. Never
carry spare fuel containers in your vehi-
cle. Whether empty or full, these con-
tainers can leak, cause an explosion, or
lead to fire in the event of a collision.<
Fit the cap and turn it clockwise until
you clearly hear a click.
Close the filler cap carefully after
refueling until a click is heard.
While closing, be sure not to squeeze
the strap which is fastened to the cap.
A loose or missing cap will activate the
message "CHECK GAS CAP" in the
Check Control* or the Check Gas Cap
lamp*.<
Observe the following when
refueling
Open the filler cap carefully to
prevent fuel from spraying out.
Fuel spray may cause injury.
Do not top off. Topping off may cause
fuel spillage.<
Tank capacity:
Approx. 24.6 gal./approx. 93 liters, with
a reserve capacity of
6-cylinder engine: approx. 2.0 gal./
approx. 8 liters
8-cylinder engine: approx. 2.5 gal./
approx. 10 liters.
Keep the filler cap in the bracket
attached to the fuel filler door.
Never attempt to continue driving
until the tank is completely empty,
as engine functions could be affected,
and the vehicle could sustain damage
as a result.<
When refueling, insert the filler nozzle

recovery system on the pump.
The fuel tank is full when the filler noz-
zle clicks off the first time.
