Refuelling
WARNING
To help reduce hazards associated
with refuelling, 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.
- Pay full attention and remain alert
while refuelling.
- Never fill the tank until 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, serious injury or death.
NOTICE
Avoid filling the tank in rainy or dusty
conditions where airborne material
can contaminate the fuel.
Contaminated fuel may cause damage
to fuel system components.
