Park the vehicle, and set the

parking brake. Pull the hood

release lever located under the

lower left corner of the dashboard.

The hood will pop up slightly.

Your vehicle’s on board diagnostic

system will detect a loose or missing

fuel fill cap as an evaporative system

leak. The first time a leak is detected

a ‘‘TIGHTEN FUEL CAP’’ message

appears on the multi-information

display. Turn the engine off, and

confirm the fuel fill cap is installed. If

it is, loosen it, then retighten it until

it clicks at least once. The message

should go off after several days of

normal driving once you tighten or

replace the fuel fill cap. To scroll to

another message, press the INFO

button. The ‘‘TIGHTEN FUEL CAP’’

message will appear each time you

restart the engine until the system

turns the message off.

If the system still detects a leak in

the vehicle’s evaporative emissions

system, the malfunction indicator

lamp (MIL) comes on. If the fuel fill

cap was not already tightened, turn

the engine off, and check or

retighten the fuel fill cap until it

clicks at least once. The MIL should

go off after several days of normal

driving once the cap is tightened or

replaced. If the MIL does not go off,

have your vehicle inspected by a

dealer. For more information, see
