Turn off the engine when
refuelling.
Keep sparks, flames, and
smoking materials away
from fuel.
Do not leave the fuel pump

Fuel can spray out if the fuel cap
is opened too quickly. This spray
can happen if the tank is nearly
full, and is more likely in hot
weather. Open the fuel cap slowly
and wait for any hissing noise to
stop, then unscrew the cap all
the way.
