!Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You
could be burned, seriously injured or killed when
handling it. When refueling your vehicle, always
turn the engine off and keep away from flames,
sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel
in well-ventilated outdoor areas.Before removing the fuel tank filler cap, be sure to
get rid of your body’s static electricity by touching a
metal part of the car or fuel pump. Any static elec-
tricity on your body could create a spark that ignites
fuel vapor.Perform the whole refueling process (opening the
fuel tank filler door, removing the fuel cap, etc.) by
yourself; do not let any other person near the fuel
tank filler. If you allowed a person to help you and
that person was carrying static electricity, fuel vapor
could be ignited.Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until
refueling is finished. If you moved away and did
something else (for example, sitting on a seat) part-
way through the refueling process, you could pick
up a fresh charge of static electricity.Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel contains
toxic substances.Keep the doors and windows closed while refueling
the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapor could get
into the cabin.
