Other information:
Your vehicle is designed and intended to
be used primarily as a passenger-carrying
vehicle. Towing a trailer puts additional
loads on your vehicle’s engine, drivetrain,
brakes, tires and suspension and has an
adverse effect on fuel economy.
If you do decide to tow a trailer, your safety
and satisfaction depend upon proper use
of correct equipment and cautious operation
of your vehicle...
If the fuel filler lid cannot be opened due to
malfunction or a dead battery, it can be
opened from the cargo area.
Remove the access cover at the rightside
of the cargo area trim using flat-head
screwdriver.
