Fuel is extremely flammable. Do not
smoke when refueling, and make
sure there are no open flames or
sparks in the area.

If you need to replace the fuel cap,
use a Maruti genuine cap. Use of an
improper cap can result in a malfunc-
tion of the fuel system or emission
control system. It may also result in
fuel leakage in the event of an acci-
dent.

it can fly up unexpectedly during
driving, obstructing your view and
resulting in an accident.
