make it pop up slightly.
- The fuel fill door opens.

- Take the funnel out of the tool case in the
cargo area.
- Place the end of the funnel on the lower
part of filler opening, then insert it slowly
and fully.
- Make sure that the end of the funnel
goes down along with the filler pipe.
- Fill the tank with fuel from the portable fuel
container.
- Pour fuel carefully so you do not spill any.
- Remove the funnel from the filler neck.
- Wipe up any fuel from the funnel before
storing it.
- Shut the fuel fill door by hand.

You can be burned or seriously injured
when handling fuel.
- Stop the engine, and keep heat, sparks,
and flame away.

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.
Make sure the fuel in the portable fuel container is
gasoline before you refuel.

Your vehicle has higher ground clearance than a passenger vehicle designed
for use
only on pavement. Higher ground clearance has many advantages for off-highway
driving. It allows you to travel over bumps, obstacles, and rough terrain. It
also
provides good visibility so you can anticipate problems earlier...
