When handling fuels, comply with
all of the applicable safety precau-
tions displayed at gas stations.
Never carry spare fuel containers in
your vehicle. Whether they are empty or

explosion, or lead to fire in the event of
a
collision.<

nent damage to the system's oxygen
sensor and the catalytic
converter.<
