FUELING INSTRUCTIONS – GASOLINE VEHICLES
See General Warnings on page 1-2.
DANGER
• Turn the key switch to the OFF position before fueling.
• Do not pour fuel into the fuel tank when the engine is hot or while it is running.
• To avoid electric arc caused by static electricity, the fuel storage/pumping device must be grounded. If
the pump is not grounded, the vehicle must be grounded to the pump before and during the fueling
operation.
• If the vehicle has an all-weather enclosure installed, be sure the fuel tank is properly vented as shown
(Figure 21-14, Page 21-25).
• To avoid the possibility of fire, clean up any spilled fuel before operating the vehicle.
CAUTION
• Use unleaded gasoline only.
• Whenever possible, avoid using oxygenated and blended fuels.
• Do not use any fuel with an alcohol content that exceeds 10% by volume (such as E15 and E85).
Ethanol is an alcohol that readily absorbs moisture, causing corrosion of fuel system components. It
also damages neoprene and other plastic and rubber components. Use of these fuels in this vehicle
will void the warranty.
• Do not repeatedly attempt to start a vehicle when the fuel pump is dry (no gas in tank). Doing so
can damage the fuel pump.
NOTE: Whenever possible, avoid using oxygenated fuels and fuels that are blended with alcohol.
Vehicles to be stored for extended periods should be prepared for storage as instructed. See Preparing the
Gasoline Vehicle for Extended Storage on page 3-4.
1. Turn the key switch to the OFF position before fueling.
2. Do not pour fuel into the fuel tank when the engine is hot or while it is running.
3. Remove the fuel cap located on the passenger-side panel and fill the fuel tank with fresh unleaded gasoline only.
See preceding CAUTION and NOTE.
4. Replace fuel cap on tank. Ensure that cap is tightened securely (tighten until it clicks).
