Filling The Tank - Chevrolet 4500HD Series 2019 Manual

Insufficient air bleeding can result in
faulty engine operation. Be sure,
therefore, to always carry out the
previous steps under "After starting
the engine".

Filling the Tank

Be sure to obey the following
instructions when refueling the
vehicle:
Stop the engine and close the
vehicle's doors and windows.
Keep cigarettes and other
flames away from the vehicle.
Before opening the fuel tank
filler cap, touch a metallic object
to discharge static electricity
from your body.
When filling, place the nozzle
deeply into the fuel tank. If you
try to fill more fuel by pulling out
the nozzle from the fuel tank, the
fuel may spill out, thus causing
danger.
Be sure to wipe off the fuel that
is spilled at refueling.
Warning
Fuel vapor is highly flammable.
Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor
when refueling the vehicle.
If you have a static charge
buildup on your body while
refueling the vehicle, a spark
caused by its discharge could
ignite the fuel, resulting in burns.
All parts of the refueling
procedure (from opening the fuel
tank filler cap to completing the
refueling and closing the fuel tank
filler cap) must be performed by
the same person.
Other people may be carrying
static electricity. Do not allow
them to approach the fuel filler.
The person performing the
refueling procedure must not
return to the seat in the cab
part-way through the procedure.
