8.8 Refueling
Danger
Fire hazardFuel is highly flammable.
Never refuel the vehicle near open flames or burning cigarettes, and always switch off the engine first. Be careful that no
fuel is spilt, especially on hot vehicle components. Clean up spilt fuel immediately.
Fuel in the fuel tank expands when warm and can escape if the tank is overfilled. See the notes on refueling.
Warning
Danger of poisoningFuel is poisonous and a health hazard.
Avoid contact of the fuel with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not inhale fuel vapors. If fuel gets into your eyes, rinse imme-
diately with water and contact a doctor. Wash affected skin areas immediately with soap and water. If fuel is swallowed,
contact a doctor immediately. Change clothing that has come into contact with fuel.
Note
Material damagePremature clogging of the fuel filter.
In some countries and regions, the available fuel quality and cleanliness may not be sufficient. This will result in problems with
the fuel system. (Your authorized KTM workshop will be glad to help.)
Only refuel with clean fuel that meets the specified standards.
