It is not unusual to hear a slight swoosh when the cap is opened. 3. The removed cap can be stored on the back side of the fuel filler door. When installing the cap, turn it clockwise until a click is heard, in order to fully close it. The cap returns slightly when your hand is released from the cap after closure, however this does not cause any problems. If the cap is not installed securely, the malfunction indicator lamp comes on. Make sure the cap is tightened securely. The indicator lamp goes off after driving several times. If the indicator lamp does not go off, contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. CAUTION D Do not smoke, cause sparks or allow open flames when refueling. The fumes are flammable. D When opening the cap, do not remove the cap quickly. In hot weather, fuel under pressure could cause injury by spraying out of the filler neck if the cap is suddenly removed. 33
