Checking The Petrol Level; Do Not Leave Petrol Within The Reach Of Children - Honda EC2200 Owner's Manual

CHECKING THE PETROL LEVEL

Do not overfill the fuel tank. After filling up, check that the fuel
tank cap is properly and fully screwed in.

DO NOT LEAVE PETROL WITHIN THE REACH OF CHILDREN

CAUTION :
• Do not use dirty or contaminated fuel (water, dust, ...), or fuel which is too old. The quality
of unleaded petrol deteriorates with time. Do not keep fuel for more than one month.
• Take care to ensure that no dirt or water gets in the fuel tank.
Capacity of fuel tank:
EC2200
EC4000
EC6000
ECT6500
Recommended petrol
Only use unleaded petrol 95 or 98.
Petrol containing alcohol
The use of petrol containing alcohol is advised against. However, if this is used as fuel,
ensure that its octane rating is as high as that recommended by Honda. Two types of alcohol/
petrol mixtures exist: one containing ethanol, the other methanol.
Do not use a mixture containing more than 10% ethanol, or containing any methanol (methyl
alcohol or wood alcohol), without cosolvents or corrosion inhibitors for methanol.
Where a mixture containing methanol (with the addition of cosolvents and corrosion
inhibitors) is used, limit the proportion of methanol to 5%.
NOTE:
The guarantee does not cover damage caused to the fuel system or problems in the engine
performance which result from the use of petrol containing alcohol. Honda cannot approve
the use of fuel containing methanol insofar as their characteristics have not yet been proved
appropriate.
