extremely flammable. To avoid fires
and explosions and to reduce the
risk of injury when refueling, followthese instructions.

gine and be sure that no one is sit-
ting on the vehicle. Never refuel

cinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as
the pilot lights of water heaters and
clothes dryers.

filling when the fuel reaches the
bottom of the filler tube. Because
fuel expands when it heats up,
heat from the engine or the sun
can cause fuel to spill out of the
fuel tank.3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-
ately. NOTICE: Immediately wipe
off spilled fuel with a clean, dry,
soft cloth, since fuel may deteri-
orate painted surfaces or plastic
parts.
