and others, read and follow
all the instructions on the fuel
pump island.
.

refueling.

Keep sparks, flames, and
smoking materials away
from fuel.
.
Do not leave the fuel pump
unattended.
.
Do not reenter the vehicle

Warning (Continued)
.
Keep children away from the
fuel pump and never let
children pump fuel.
.
Fuel can spray out if the fuel
cap is opened too quickly.
This spray can happen if the
tank is nearly full, and is
more likely in hot weather.
Open the fuel cap slowly and
wait for any hiss noise to stop
then unscrew the cap all
the way.
Van Shown, Pickup Similar
The green fuel cap is behind a
hinged door on the driver side of the
vehicle. On van models, the blue
diesel exhaust fluid cap is also
behind the fuel door. Do not remove
both caps at the same time.
For chassis-cab models, refuel the
front tank first, or in instances when
only a partial fuel fill is desired. An
automatic transfer mechanism will
maintain approximately equal fuel
levels in both tanks, so no switching
is required by the operator.
