Refueling

INFORMATION

■

Running out of fuel

When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid system cannot be started, refuel the
vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warning light go off.

there is only a small amount of fuel, the hybrid system may not be able to start.

Opening the fuel tank cap

The fuel tank of your vehicle has a special structure, which requires a reduction in
fuel tank pressure before refueling. After the opener switch has been pressed, it
will take several seconds until the vehicle is ready for refueling.

Press the opener to open the fuel filler door.

The fuel filler door will open within about 10 sec-
onds of the switch being pressed. Before refueling
is possible, a message will be shown on the mul-
ti-information display in the instrument cluster to
indicate the progress of the fuel filler door opener.
The fuel filler door will open.

Turn the fuel tank cap slowly and remove it,
then put it into the holder on the fuel filler
door.

WARNING

Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to remove it. A
whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened. Wait until the
sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap. In hot weather, pressurized fuel
may spray out the filler neck and cause injury.

Precautions for refueling

Make sure to select a compatible type of fuel and refuel safely.

*1 :

The specified refueling volume to cause the warning light to turn off when the vehicle

is level is approximately 2.6 gal. [10.0 L, 2.2 Imp.gal.]. This value may vary when the

vehicle is on a slope. Add extra fuel when the vehicle is inclined.

WARNING

Observe the following precautions while refueling the vehicle.

●

After exiting the vehicle and before opening the fuel door, touch an unpainted metal
surface to discharge any static electricity.
Also, do not allow anyone that has not discharged static electricity from their body to
come close to the fuel filler door.
Sparks resulting from static electricity discharge may cause fuel vapors to ignite while
refueling.

●

Do not inhale vaporized fuel. Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled.

●

Do not smoke while refueling the vehicle. Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and
cause a fire.

●

Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is statically charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible ignition hazard.

●

Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel filler neck.

●

Stop filling the tank after the fuel nozzle automatically clicks off.

●

Do not top off the fuel tank.

NOTICE

●

When refueling your vehicle, make sure that the
fuel filler door lock is not pushed by the fuel nozzle
boot, etc., as this may cause a valve to close, possi-
bly resulting in a fuel spill.
If the fuel filler door lock has been pushed, operate
the fuel filler door opener switch in the vehicle
before continuing to refuel.

●

Finish refueling within 30 minutes. If more than 30 minutes passes, the internal valve
closes. In this condition, fuel may overflow during the refueling process. Press the fuel
filler door opener switch again.

●

Do not spill fuel during refueling. Doing so may damage the vehicle, such as causing
the emission control system to operate abnormally or damaging fuel system compo-
nents or the vehicle’s painted surface.

INFORMATION

Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline

To help prevent refueling with the incorrect fuel, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening
designed to only accommodate the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.

●

The high beams may change to the shaded high beams if a vehicle ahead that is using
fog lights without its headlights turned on is detected.

●

House lights, street lights, traffic signals, and illuminated billboards or signs and other
reflective objects may cause the high beams to change to the shaded high beams,
cause the high beams not to change to the shaded high beams, or change the area
that is not illuminated.

The following may change the speed at which the shaded areas change or the timing
at which the headlights change to the low beams:

•

The brightness of lights of vehicles ahead

•

The movement and direction of vehicles ahead

•

The distance between the vehicle and a vehicle ahead
