Safety Precautions - Honda 2006 CBF1000/A Owner's Manual

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Make sure the engine is off before you begin
any maintenance or repairs. This will help
eliminate several potential hazards:
*Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine
exhaust.
Be sure there is adequate ventilation
whenever you operate the engine.
*Burns from hot parts.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool
before touching.
*Injury from moving parts.
Do not run the engine unless instructed to
do so.
• Read the instructions before you begin and
make sure you have the tools and skills
required.
• To help prevent the motorcycle from falling
over, park it on a firm, level surface, using
the center stand or a maintenance stand to
provide support.
• To reduce the possibility of a fire or
explosion, be careful when working around
petrol or batteries. Use only non-flammable
solvent, not petrol, to clean parts. Keep
cigarettes, sparks and flames away from the
battery and all fuel-related parts.
Remember that your Honda dealer knows
your motorcycle best and is fully equipped to
maintain and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and reliability use
only new genuine Honda parts or their
equivalents for repair and replacement.
