• Gasoline is extremely flammable,
and gasoline vapor can explode.
Refuel outdoors, in a well-
ventilated area, with the engine
stopped. Never smoke near
gasoline, and keep other flames
and sparks away.
• Refuel carefully to avoid spilling
fuel. Avoid overfilling the fuel
tank.
• After refueling, tighten the filler
cap securely. If any fuel is spilled,
make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.
