Refueling from a Portable Fuel Container

If you need to refuel your vehicle from a portable fuel container, use the funnel provided with your vehicle.
  1. Turn off the engine.
  2. Press the fuel fill door release button. The fuel fill door opens.
  3. Remove the funnel from the tool box. Take the funnel out of the tool case in the rear cargo area.
  4. Place the end of the funnel on the lower part of the filler opening, then insert it slowly and fully. Make sure that the end of the funnel goes down along with the filler pipe.
  5. Fill the tank with fuel from the portable fuel container. Pour fuel carefully so you do not spill any.
  6. Remove the funnel from the filler neck. Wipe up any fuel from the funnel before storing it.
  7. Shut the fuel fill door by hand.
Notice Do not insert the nozzle of a portable fuel container or any funnel other than the one provided with your vehicle. Doing so can damage the fuel system. Do not try to pry open or push open the sealed fuel tank with foreign objects. This can damage the fuel system and its seal.
