 When using an approved
portable fuel container, be sure
to place the container on the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity discharge from the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire. Once refueling
has begun, contact with the
vehicle should be maintained
until the filling is complete.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers
designed to carry and store
gasoline.
 Do not use cellular phones
while refueling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from cellular phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
(Continued)(Continued)
 Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refueling
since you can generate static
electricity by touching, rubbing
or sliding against any item or
fabric (polyester, satin, nylon,
etc.) capable of producing stat-
ic electricity. Static electricity
discharge can ignite fuel
vapors resulting in rapid burn-
ing. If you must re-enter the
vehicle, you should once again
eliminate potentially dangerous
static electricity discharge by
touching a metal part of the
vehicle, away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle or other gasoline
source.
(Continued)WARNING - Refueling
dangers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When refueling,
please note the following guide-
lines carefully. Failure to follow
these guidelines may result in
severe personal injury, severe
burns or death by fire or explo-
sion.
 Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station facil-
ity.
 Before refueling, note the
location of the Emergency
Gasoline Shut-Off, if available,
at the gas station facility.
 Before touching the fuel noz-
zle, you should eliminate
potentially dangerous static
electricity discharge by touch-
ing another metal part of the
vehicle, a safe distance away
from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
