(counterclockwise).
I A CAUTION:
If you get gasoline on yourself and then
something ignites it, you could be badly burned.

fuel filler cap too quickly. This
spray can happen
if your tank is nearly full, and
is more likely in
hot weather. Open the fuel
filler cap slowly and
wait
for any “hiss” noise to stop. Then unscrew
the cap
all the way.
Be careful not
to spill gasoline. Clean gasoline from
painted surfaces as soon as possible. See “Cleaning the
