General Information
Refuelling
Fuel Tank Cap
1. F u e l t a n k c a p
To open the fuel tank cap, rotate the cap
anti-clockwise and lift clear of the tank filler
neck. To close the cap, align the cap to the
tank filler neck and rotate the cap clockwise
until the cap seals against the filler neck. In
the fully closed position, a ratchet mechanism
prevents over-tightening of the cap by
allowing the outer part of the cap to turn
independently of the internal part.
To help reduce hazards associated with
fuel handling, always observe the following
fuel safety instructions:
Petrol (fuel) is highly flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions. When
refuelling, turn the ignition switch to the
OFF position.
Do not smoke.
Do not use a mobile telephone.
Make sure the refuelling area is well
ventilated and free from any source of
flame or sparks. This includes any
appliance with a pilot light.
Never fill the tank such that the fuel level
rises into the filler neck. Heat from sunlight
or other sources may cause the fuel to
expand and overflow creating a fire
hazard.
After refuelling always check that the fuel
filler cap is correctly closed.
Because petrol (fuel) is highly flammable,
any fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to
observe the safety advice given above will
lead to a fire hazard which could cause
damage to property, injury to persons or
death.
