14 PREPARATION
Fuel
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions, creating
the potential for serious burns. Turn the
ignition switch to "OFF". Do not smoke.
Make sure the area is well-ventilated and
free from any source of flame or sparks;
this includes any appliance with a pilot light.
Never fill the tank completely to the top. If
the tank is filled completely to the top, heat
may cause the fuel to expand and overflow
through the vents in the tank cap. After
refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed
securely. If gasoline is spilled on the fuel
tank, wipe it off immediately.
