WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fuel is dangerous and can cause fire, explosion, and severe
burns.
x
Always make sure that the fuel filler cap is screwed on all the way. This helps keep fuel
from spilling out or evaporating.
x
Fuel is highly flammable and explosive; it can cause severe burns and other severe
injuries.
x
Failure to shut the engine off while refueling and/or to insert the pump nozzle all the way
into the fuel filler neck can cause fuel to overflow and to spray out. Fuel spray and
overflowing fuel are dangerous because they can cause fire and serious personal injury.
x
During refueling, the engine and the ignition must be switched off for safety reasons.
x
Never use a mobile telephone, CB radio, or other radio equipment while refueling. The
electromagnetic radiation can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and cause a fire.
x
Never get back into your vehicle while refueling. If in exceptional circumstances you must
get back in your vehicle while refueling, make certain that you close the door and touch metal
to discharge static electricity before touching the filler nozzle again. This helps avoid the
buildup of static electricity, which can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors released
during refueling.
x
Never smoke or have an open flame (or sparks, cigarettes, or other smoldering objects)
anywhere in or near your vehicle when refueling or filling a portable fuel container.
x
Follow all safety instructions and procedures that apply at the service station where you
refuel.
x
Never spill fuel in the vehicle or the luggage compartment.
