Warning
Overfilling the tank can lead to fuel
spillage.
If fuel is spilled, thoroughly clean up
the spillage immediately and dispose
of the materials used safely.
Take care not to spill any fuel near the
cable or the cable hole, on the engine,
exhaust pipes, tires or any other part
of the motorcycle.
Because fuel is highly flammable, any
fuel leak or spillage, or any failure to
observe the safety advice given above
may lead to a fire hazard, which could
cause damage to property and injury
or death to persons.
▼ Make sure that the seal and rubber
gasket are attached to the fuel tank
cap in the correct position.
▼ Carefully reinstall the fuel tank cap,
seal and gasket taking care not to
stretch or trap the cable.
