o Automotive fuels are flammable/
explosive materials. When refuel- ing, please note the following guidelines carefully.
o Before touching the fuel nozzle or fuel filler cap, have one's hands incontact with metal parts away from the filler neck to discharge staticelectricity.
o Do not get back in the vehicle
whilst refueling. Do not operateanything that can produce static electricity. Static electricity dis- charge can ignite fuel vapors re-sulting in explosion.
o When using a portable fuel con-
tainer be sure to place the con-tainer on the ground whilst refuel- ing. Static electricity discharge from the container can ignite fuelvapors causing a fire. Whilst start- ing refueling contact should be maintained until the filling is com-plete. o Do not use cellular phones around
a gas station. The electric currentor electronic interference from cellular phones can ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.
o When refueling always shut the engine off. Sparks by electricalequipment of the engine can ig-nite fuel vapors causing a fire. After refueling, check to make sure the fuel filler cap is securely closed,and then start the engine.

o Station Swapping - As a FM signalweakens, another more powerful sig- nal near the same frequency may begin to play. This is because your radio is designed to lock onto the clearest signal. If this occurs, selectanother station with a stronger sig- nal.
o Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio sig- nals being received from several di-rections can cause distortion or flut- tering. This can be caused by adirect and a reflected signal from the same station, or by signals from two stations with close frequencies. Ifthis occurs, select another station until the condition has passed. B750B03Y-EAT Using a cellular phone or a two- way radio When a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle, noise may be produced from the audio equipment. This doesnot mean that something is wrong with the audio equipment. In such a case, use the cellular phone at a place as faras possible from the audio equipment.
!
CAUTION:
When using a communication sys- tem such as a mobile phone or aradio inside the vehicle, a separate external antenna must be fitted. When a mobile phone or a radio set isused with an internal antenna alone, it may interfere with the vehicle's electrical system and adversely affectsafe operation of the vehicle.
!WARNING:
Don't use a cellular phone whilst you are driving.
