Be careful when refueling. Avoid getting
water and other contaminants in the fuel
tank. Contaminated fuel can cause poor
running and engine damage.

compartment, and then check the fuel
level. (See “Front storage compartment”
on page 32 for more information.)
(2) Remove the fuel tank filler cap, and then
slowly add fuel to the fuel tank. Stop fillingwhen the fuel level just reaches the bot-
tom of the filler tube.
(3) Install the fuel tank filler cap and front

NOTE:
Do not fill up the filler tube because fuel ex-
pands as it warms up and could overflow.
