CAUTION

  If the check fuel cap warning light 
illuminates, the fuel-fi ller cap may not 
be properly installed. If the warning 
light illuminates, park your vehicle 
safely off  the right-of-way, remove the 
fuel-fi ller cap and reinstall it correctly. 
After the cap has been correctly 
installed, the fuel cap warning light 
may continue to illuminate until a 
number of driving cycles have been 
completed. A drive cycle consists of 
starting the engine (after four or more 
hours with the engine off ) and driving 
the vehicle on city and highway roads.
  Continuing to drive with the check 
fuel cap warning light illuminated 
could cause the check engine light to 
illuminate as well.
