can explode, causing serious
injury or death. Do not smoke
or allow flames or sparks in
your working area. KEEP OUT

ventilated area.
Be sure that any fuel drained
from the outboard motor is
stored in a safe container.
Be careful not to spill fuel
when replacing the filter.
Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may
ignite. If any fuel is spilled,
make sure the area is dry
before starting the engine.
