CAUTION:
Never experiment with other fuels or fuel ratios. The
use of unrecommended fuel can result in snowmobile perfor-
mance deterioration and damage to critical parts in the fuel sys-
tem and engine components. Do not mistake oil reservoir cap
for fuel tank cap. Oil reservoir cap is identified OIL.
WARNING
Always stop the engine before refueling. Fuel is flammable
and explosive under certain conditions. Always work in a well
ventilated area. Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks
in the vicinity. Open cap slowly. If a differential pressure con-
dition is noticed (whistling sound heard when loosening fuel
tank cap) have vehicle inspected and/or repaired before fur-
ther operation. Do not overfill or top off the fuel tank before
placing the vehicle in a warm area. As temperature increases,
fuel expands and might overflow. Always wipe off any fuel
spillage from the vehicle. Periodically verify fuel system.
Fuel System Antifreeze
When using oxygenated fuel, additional gas line antifreeze or water
absorbing additives are not required and should be not used.
