Do not get back into  a vehicle
once  you have  begun  refuel-
ing  since   you  can  generate
static  electricity by  touching,
rubbing or sliding against any
item or fabric (polyester, satin,
nylon, etc.) capable of produc-
ing   static   electricity.   Static
electricity      discharge     can
ignite fuel  vapors resulting in
rapid burning. If  you must  re-
enter the  vehicle, you  should
once  again   eliminate  poten-
tially  dangerous   static  elec-
tricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the  fuel  filler neck, noz-
zle or other gasoline source.
•  When    using    an   approved
portable fuel container, be sure
to  place the  container  on  the
ground prior to refueling. Static
electricity  discharge  from  the
container can ignite fuel vapors
causing  a fire.  Once  refueling
has  begun,  contact   with  the
vehicle  should  be  maintained
until the filling is complete.
•  When  refueling,  always  shut
the  engine   off.  Sparks   pro-
duced   by  electrical   compo-
nents  related   to  the   engine
can ignite fuel vapors causing
a fire.  Once refueling  is com-
plete, check to  make sure the
filler  cap  and  filler  door  are
securely closed,  before start-
ing the engine.
•  DO  NOT   use  matches  or   a
lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
leave  a  lit   cigarette  in  your
vehicle while  at a  gas station
especially   during   refueling.
Automotive    fuel    is   highly
flammable    and   can,    when
ignited, result in fire.
•  If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the  vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact  the  manager  of  the  gas
station  and  then contact  the
local  fire  department or  911.
Follow any safety instructions
they provide.
Use  only   approved  portable
plastic fuel containers designed
to carry and store gasoline.
Do  not   use  cellular  phones
while  refueling.  Electric  cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from cellular phones can
potentially  ignite  fuel  vapors
causing a fire.
