10) Fuel Tank Cap

The fuel tank cap is located on the left
side of the rear fender.

have vehicle inspected and/or re-
paired before further operation.
Fuel is flammable and explosive
under certain conditions. Never
use an open flame to check fuel
level. Never smoke or allow flame
or spark in vicinity. Always work
in a well-ventilated area. Never
top up the fuel tank before plac-
ing the vehicle in a warm area.
As temperature increases, fuel ex-
pands and may overflow. Always
wipe off any fuel spillage from the
vehicle.
