WARNING
Refueling dangers
Automotive fuels are flammable
materials. When
please note the following guide-
lines carefully. Failure to follow
these guidelines may result in
severe personal injury, severe
burns or death by fire or explo-
sion.
•
Read and follow all warning
posted at the gas station facil-
ity.
•
Before touching the fuel noz-
zle, you should eliminate
potentially dangerous static

from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle, or other gas source.
H14
•
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refuel-
ing since you can generate
static electricity by touching,
rubbing or sliding against any
refueling,
item or fabric (polyester, satin,
nylon, etc.) capable of produc-
ing static electricity. Static
electricity
ignite fuel vapors resulting in
rapid burning. If you must re-
enter the vehicle, you should
once again eliminate poten-
tially dangerous static elec-
tricity discharge by touching a
metal part of the vehicle, away
from the fuel filler neck, noz-
zle or other gasoline source.
•
Do not use cellular phones
while refueling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from cellular phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapors
causing a fire.
•
When refueling, always shut
the power off. Once refueling
is complete, check to make
sure the fuel filler cap and fuel
filler door are securely closed,
before starting the vehicle.
•
DO NOT use matches or a
lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or
discharge can
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle while at a gas station
especially during refueling.
Automotive fuel is highly
flammable and can, when
ignited, result in fire.
•
If a fire breaks out during refu-
eling, leave the vicinity of the
vehicle, and immediately con-
tact the manager of the gas
station and then contact the
local fire department. Follow
any safety instructions they
provide.
