or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or
l
where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck).
After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.

ignite. lfany fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the

GASOLINES CONTAINING ALCOHOL
If you decide to use a gasoline containing alcohol (gasohol), be sure its
octane rating is at least as high as that recommended by Honda. There are
two types of "gasohol": one containing ethanol, and the other containing
methanol.
Do not use gasohol than contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not use
gasoline containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) that dose not also
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors for methanol. Never use
gasoline containing more than 5% methanol, even if it has cosolvents and
corrosion inhibitors.
NOTE:
l
Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from the
use of fuels that contain alcohol is not covered under the warranty.
Honda cannot endorse the use of fuels containing methanol since
evidence of their suitability is as yet incomplete.
l
Before buying fuel from an unfamiliar station, try to find out if the fuel
contains alcohol,if it dose, confirm the type and percentage of alcohol
used.
If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms while using a gasoline
that contains alcohol, or one that you think contains alcohol, switch to a
gasoline that you know does not contain alcohol.
