WARNING ● Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive under certain conditions. You could be burned or seriously injured if it is misused or mishandled. Always stop the engine and do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks near the vehicle when refueling. ● Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the cap one-half turn, and wait for any ''hissing'' sound to stop to prevent fuel from spraying out and possible personal injury. Then remove the cap. ● Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automatically. Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel spray and possibly fire. ● Use only an original equipment type fuel filler cap as a replacement. It has a built-in safety valve needed for proper operation of the fuel system and emission control system. An incorrect cap can result in a serious malfunction and possible injury. ● Never pour fuel into the throttle body to attempt to start your vehicle. CAUTION ● If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it away with water to avoid paint damage. ● Tighten until the fuel filler cap clicks. Failure to tighten the fuel filler cap properly may cause the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) to illuminate. If the lamp illuminates because the fuel filler cap is loose or missing, tighten or install the cap and continue to drive the vehicle. The lamp should turn off after a few driving trips. If the lamp does not turn off after a few driving trips, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized NISSAN dealer. ● For additional information, see the "Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)'' in the "Instrument and controls" section earlier in this manual. APD1006 Put the fuel filler cap on the cap holder while refueling. 3-12 Pre-driving checks and adjustments

WARNING
●
Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain con-
ditions. You could be burned or se-
riously injured if it is misused or
mishandled. Always stop the engine
and do not smoke or allow open
flames or sparks near the vehicle
when refueling.
●
Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the
cap one-half turn, and wait for any
‘‘hissing’’ sound to stop to prevent
fuel from spraying out and possible
personal injury. Then remove the cap.
●
Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts
off automatically. Continued refuel-
ing may cause fuel overflow, result-
ing in fuel spray and possibly fire.
●
Use only an original equipment type
fuel filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury.
●
Never pour fuel into the throttle body
to attempt to start your vehicle.
CAUTION
●
If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid
paint damage.
●
Tighten until the fuel filler cap clicks.
Failure to tighten the fuel filler cap
properly may cause the
mal-
function indicator lamp (MIL) to illu-
minate. If the
lamp illuminates
because the fuel filler cap is loose or
missing, tighten or install the cap
and continue to drive the vehicle.
The
lamp should turn off after
a few driving trips. If the
lamp
does not turn off after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected by
an authorized NISSAN dealer.
●
For additional information, see the
“Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)’’
in
the
“Instrument
and
controls”
section earlier in this manual.
Put the fuel filler cap on the cap holder while
refueling.
