WARNING
The fuel used in internal combustion
engines is highly flammable and can
become explosive under particular
conditions.
It is important to refuel and service the
vehicle in a well-ventilated area, with
the engine off.
Do not smoke while refuelling or near
fuel vapors, in any case avoid contact
with naked flames, sparks and any
other heat source or source of ignition
to prevent fires or explosion.
Avoid spilling fuel, as it may ignite
when in contact with hot engine parts.
In the event of accidental spillage, make
sure that the area has completely dried
before starting the engine.
Never fill the tank to the brim, as fuel
expands from heat and when left under
direct sunlight.
