The exhaust system is fitted with a
catalytic converter to help reduce
exhaust emission levels. The catalytic
converter can be permanently
damaged if the motorcycle is allowed
to run out of fuel or if the fuel level is
allowed to get very low. Always ensure
you have adequate fuel for your
journey.
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.
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 and
locked.
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.
