doorway, window, vent, or opening of any type.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and its vapors can explode if ignited. Store gasoline only in
approved containers, in well-ventilated, unoccupied buildings away from sparks or flames. Never carry
any gasoline or flammable material in the vehicle. Fumes may accumulate inside the vehicle and ignite,
causing an explosion.
DO NOT store any type of flammable material in the vehicle.
This unit must be operated with the vehicle or trailer doors open in order to ensure adequate
engine ventilation.
DO NOT operate engine if gasoline is spilled. Avoid creating any ignition until the gasoline has been
