WARNING - Refueling
Before  touching  the fuel  nozzle,
you  should  eliminate  potentially
dangerous  static  electricity   dis-
charge by touching another metal
part of the vehicle, a safe distance
away  from   the  fuel   filler  neck,
nozzle, or other gas source.
Static  electricity  discharge  from
the   container    can   ignite   fuel
vapors causing a fire.  Once  refu-
eling has begun, contact with  the
vehicle   should    be   maintained
until the filling is complete.
Use   only  portable   plastic   fuel
containers designed to  carry and
store gasoline.
If pressurized fuel sprays out, it can
cover your clothes or skin and thus
subject  you to  the risk  of  fire and
burns.  Always remove  the fuel cap
carefully  and  slowly.  If the  cap  is
venting fuel or if you hear a hissing
sound,   wait   until   the   condition
stops  before  completely removing
the cap.
Do  not  get  back   into  a  vehicle
once  you  have  begun   refueling
since   you  can   generate   static
electricity by touching, rubbing or
sliding against any  item or fabric
satin,    nylon,    etc.)
Do not  use cellular phones while
refueling. Electric  current  and/or
electronic interference from cellu-
lar  phones can  potentially  ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire.
When  refueling, always  shut  the
engine  off.  Sparks  produced  by
electrical  components related  to
the engine  can ignite fuel  vapors
causing  a fire.  Once refueling  is
complete, check to make sure the
filler   cap   and    filler   door   are
securely  closed,  before  starting
the engine.
WARNING - Refueling dan-
gers
(polyester,
capable of  producing static  elec-
tricity. Static electricity discharge
can ignite fuel vapors resulting in
rapid  burning.   If  you   must  re-
enter   the   vehicle,   you  should
once  again  eliminate  potentially
dangerous  static  electricity  dis-
charge  by touching  a  metal part
of the vehicle, away  from the fuel
filler neck,  nozzle or  other  gaso-
line source.
Automotive   fuels   are   flammable
materials.  When  refueling,   please
note the  following guidelines  care-
fully. Failure  to follow  these guide-
lines may result  in severe personal
injury, severe burns or death by fire
or explosion.
Before refueling note the location
of the Emergency  Gasoline Shut-
Off, if available, at the gas station
facility.

•  When  using a  portable fuel  con-
tainer  be sure  to  place  the con-
tainer on the ground prior to refu-
eling.
