Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further review.

Tighten the fuel filler cap until a “clicking” sound is heard. This is an indication that the fuel filler cap is properly tightened. Refer to “Onboard Diagnostic System” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information.
