WARNING
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause
injury or death. Handle gasoline with
care. Never siphon gasoline by mouth.
If you should swallow some gasoline
or inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or get
some gasoline in your eyes, see your
doctor immediately.
If gasoline spills on your skin, wash
with soap and water. If gasoline spills
on your clothing, change your clothes.
NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use of
leaded gasoline will cause severe da-
mage to internal engine parts, such as
the valves and piston rings, as well as
to the exhaust system.
TIP
• This mark identifies the recommen-
ded fuel for this vehicle as specified
by European regulation (EN228).
• Check that gasoline nozzle has the
same identifier when fueling.
Your Benelli engine has been designed to
use premium unleaded gasoline with a
research octane number of 95 or higher.
If knocking (or pinging) occurs, use a ga-
soline of a different brand.
Use of unleaded fuel will extend spark
plug life and reduce maintenance costs.
