• When using an approved

portable fuel container, be

sure to place the container on

the ground prior to refueling.

Static electricity discharge

from the container can ignite

fuel vapors causing a fire.

Once refueling has begun,

contact with the vehicle

should be maintained until the

filling is complete.

Use only approved portable

plastic fuel containers

designed to carry and store

gasoline.

• Do not use cellular phones

while refueling. Electric cur-

rent and/or electronic interfer-

ence from cellular phones can

potentially ignite fuel vapors

causing a fire.

• When refueling, always shut

the engine off. Sparks pro-

duced by electrical compo-

nents related to the engine

can ignite fuel vapors causing

a fire. Once refueling is com-

plete, check to make sure the

filler cap and filler door are

securely closed, before start-

ing the engine.

• DO NOT use matches or a

lighter and DO NOT SMOKE or

leave a lit cigarette in your

vehicle while at a gas station

especially during refueling.

Automotive fuel is highly

flammable and can, when

ignited, result in fire.

• If a fire breaks out during refu-

eling, leave the vicinity of the

vehicle, and immediately con-

tact the manager of the gas

station and then contact the

local fire department.

Follow any safety instructions

they provide.

(Continued)

• Do not get back into a vehicle

once you have begun refuel-

ing since you can generate

static electricity by touching,

rubbing or sliding against any

item or fabric (polyester, satin,

nylon, etc.) capable of produc-

ing static electricity. Static

electricity discharge can

ignite fuel vapors resulting in

rapid burning. If you must re-

enter the vehicle, you should

once again eliminate poten-

tially dangerous static elec-

tricity discharge by touching a

metal part of the vehicle, away

from the fuel filler neck, noz-

zle or other gasoline source.
