1. Before refueling, turn off the engine and be
sure that no one is sitting on the vehicle. Nev-
er refuel while smoking, or while in the vicinity
of sparks, open flames, or other sources of ig-
nition such as the pilot lights of water heaters
and clothes dryers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. When refueling,
be sure to insert the pump nozzle into the fuel
tank filler hole. Stop filling when the fuel reach-
es the bottom of the filler tube. Because fuel
expands when it heats up, heat from the en-
gine or the sun can cause fuel to spill out of
the fuel tank.3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
NOTICE:
Immediately wipe off spilled
fuel with a clean, dry, soft cloth, since
fuel may deteriorate painted surfaces
or plastic parts.
[ECB00981]

4. Turn the fuel tank cap fully clockwise to make
sure it is securely closed.
