Fuel and Refueling 3. Slowly insert the fuel filler nozzle fully into the fuel system to open both doors. Leave the nozzle fully inserted until you have stopped pumping fuel. Note: A fuel spillage concern may occur if overfilling the fuel tank. Do not overfill the tank to the point that the fuel is able to bypass the fuel filler nozzle. The overfilled fuel may run down the drain located below and in front of the fuel filler door. 5. To close the fuel filler door, press the center-rear edge of the fuel filler door and then release. The fuel door will latch closed. If the fuel fill inlet did not close properly, a Check Fuel Fill Inlet message may appear on the instrument cluster. E154765 E166527 2. Press the center-rear edge of the fuel filler door and release to open. At the next opportunity, do the following: 1. Safely pull off the road. 2. Put the vehicle in position P and switch the ignition off. 3. Open the fuel filler door and remove any visible debris from the fuel fill opening. 4. Insert the fuel fill nozzle, or the fuel fill funnel provided with the vehicle, several times to allow the inlet to close properly. This will dislodge any debris preventing the inlet from sealing. Note: Allow about five to ten seconds after pumping fuel before removing the fuel filler nozzle. This allows residual fuel to drain back into the fuel tank and not spill onto the vehicle. 4. After you have stopped pumping fuel, slowly remove the fuel filler nozzle.
