Fuel
Make sure there is sufficient gasoline in the tank.
WARNING
Gasoline and gasoline vapors are extremely
flammable. To avoid fires and explosions and
to reduce the risk of injury when refueling, fol-
low these instructions.1. Before refueling, turn off the engine and be
sure that no one is sitting in the vehicle.
Never refuel while smoking, or while in the vi-
cinity of sparks, open flames, or other sourc-
es of ignition such as the pilot lights of water
heaters and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Because fuel ex-
pands 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 immediately.
