To remove the fuel filler cap: 1) Open the fuel filler door.
2) Remove the cap by turning it counterclockwise.
WARNING:
Remove the fuel filler cap slowly. The
fuel may be under pressure and may
spray out, causing injury.
To reinstall the fuel filler cap: 1) Turn the cap clockwise until you hear several clicks.
2) Close the fuel filler door.
WARNING:
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Do
not smoke when refueling, and make
sure there are no open flames or
sparks in the area.
WARNING:
If you need to replace the fuel cap,
use a genuine SUZUKI cap. Use of an
improper cap can result in a malfunction
of the fuel system or emission
control system. It may also result in
fuel leakage in the event of an accident.
